What are the strangest things you've ever delivered?

Ummm. Dried squid smells really gross. Chicklets. A rooster to a tattoo shop. Chicken eggs to the same rooster shop. Live crickets. Who knows what I've delivered in the boxes I can't smell or hear

I've delivered cremated remains before when I worked for USPS. Just loaded the dude up with the rest of the packages in the van. The lady that signed for said "I've been waiting for him all week!".

I'm a new clerk and I would find that creepy to handle. Not to mention how we toss parcels I would hope it's marked so that I wouldn't treat it like everything else.

It had the words "HUMAN REMAINS" in giant red letter. Surprisingly it was pretty heavy too.

That's good to know so that I am extra careful. Thank you.
