I don't like the extra pair of hands touching my stuff to deliver it plus a lot of drivers were Uber and Lyft drivers taking a lot of passengers so they were exposed. Also, the drivers were/are probably the demographic that is struggling and might work while highly contagious and without tracking, we don;t know how many got into their vehicles that had it... so it could transfer to the bags of groceries....

It the very least, use gloves to accept the packages and clean them all before putting them in the fridge.

I actually let my non critical mail sit a day on a table before opening it as the virus can live for days on cardboard... think like a mathematician... the more time you can put between touching something that someone else might have touched the better.

I figure the news-carrier touches my paper on the outside to fold it for the rubber band or place in a bag so I open it on my flat stove and give the top page a spray of Lysol and let it air dry... and of course wash my hands well after bringing it in.

I've thought about delivery, just wondering in your case, did they actually deliver everything you had on your list? Paper products, for instance, that may not even be on the shelves in the store. I'm wondering if this may be a way to get some of these items that remain absent inside the store?
