I've had both deliver my stuff to the wrong address, but the vast majority of those mistakes were from Amazon delivery (and off by much larger distances).
Okay I am a Amazon delivery driver Amazon app is very gps specific and sometimes it’s wrong by a lot and no way for us to know since the use their own gps.
Interesting, so it gives you a GPS pin instead of the address?
Yes and no we do have the full address but we do not find packages by address we find them using the three digit code on the small yellow sticker on the package when delivering during the day all wrong address should be caught and delivered correctly it’s when it hits night and become dark we can’t see because no one turns on lights so it’s all guessing and at night we go 100% off gps pin. or Amazon’s GPS is way off sometimes and will say we’re at the right location and the address will match but it’s the wrong street and we don’t know.
