There is no option to specify delivery times for USPS, UPS, FedEx, or Amazon deliveries in the US.

Editing to add: Also, I have zero interest in interacting with people in person more often than absolutely necessary.

USPs, FedEx and UPS all require “signatures” (really just a name) when delivering to businesses. They don’t leave business packages in front of the door.

Source: I have to sign for stuff daily.

I’ve delivered for Amazon and have left lots of shit outside businesses…

Can’t speak for the rest of them specifically with regards to businesses but I also don’t think it’s relevant to the conversation at hand.

In Poland there are parcel machines everywhere. Ordering pretty much anywhere on the internet you can just ask for there, it will be cheaper, and you will have to go just like 200 meters on average (I live in a point just between 3 machines so it is 300) in a city and less than a kilometer in most towns and bigger villahes and your parcel is always there. Much recommend. Wont work in america

Amazon has package lockers that people can choose to have their stuff delivered to if they’re concerned about it being dropped at their front door but USPS, UPS, and FedEx don’t.

They will however, for packages that require a signature, bring them back to their local depot and hold them for pickup if necessary.
