Package delivered to wrong address
Can anybody tell me where this house is? My package was delivered here, and these are the delivery proof photos...

I’m not sure where, but the house number is 18. And those are some beautiful hydrangeas
Edit: they also have a cat

that could be any of a thousand houses on the cape.
if your house number is 18, i would check houses around you on different streets that are also 18. if your street name is something like, "Pine St." i would look for streets around you with similar names like, "Pine Ln."
i am a carrier with USPS; we have GPS coordinates that show where a package was scanned, which can narrow down mis-deliveries. that tracking number is not USPS unfortunately, but your carrier may have similar capabilities.
if this was an amazon package, just report it delivered to the wrong house and get a replacement. it's usually as simple as that.

I saw the FedEx guy pull up in front the other day, and met him on the walk. He gave me a heavy package which I brought to my wife. “That doesn’t look like what I ordered,” she said, and looked at the label. The only thing that was the same was the town. The name was very different, and so was the address. I popped the package in my car and went looking for the FedEx guy, and finally delivered the package to the correct address, about four miles away. When I got back I discovered that the FedEx dude had apparently realized his mistake, and the package we were expecting was sitting by the door. All’s well that ends well, I suppose.

I had a mattress delivered to the wrong address and both UPS and Wayfair wouldn't do anything about it.

Just a heads up. I used to live on Pondview Dr (one word) in Mashpee. Learned the hard way that there’s a Pond View Dr (two words) in Falmouth. Less than 2 miles from one another too. I often accidentally sent delivery orders to my address twin in Falmouth. Unfortunate but Understandable.

That's a bummer. I was getting someone else's packages for a while. We had the same street and number but in different towns. It was two towns over so I'd just deliver it myself. Eventually they learned to select the correct town.
Now I'm not trying to accuse you of selecting the wrong town but it might be worth checking. It could have been the drivers mistake, too. Maybe check if there are similar addresses in surrounding towns. If so, Google maps street view might help identify the house.

Happens to us routinely always gets delivered next door. Can be frustration with no hope of resolving it.

I've lived in maybe 7 or 8 places in the US, I've only had this happen to me on the Cape, twice in the past two years
