Y'know, I could myself lucky in that I've rebuilt quite a few engines and have YET to end up with a 'new' bearing looking like that.

Thanks, Amazon? http://i.imgur.com/m6TVUIa.mp4  I’ve been fighting them since I bought this house nine years ago over this type of poo poo. Their drivers just can’t stay off the grass. My yard is full of springs and they end up sinking or making massive ruts so I put some cinder blocks and a reflector on a pole in the corner of the driveway to try and give them a visual cue but apparently that’s not enough. I keep telling my wife to not order from them anymore (for this and other reasons) but my pleas fall on deaf ears.

is it only cutting the corner or do they like, back up onto your grass and poo poo too if it's just cutting the corner you might consider paving a cut into the corner, if that's more aesthetically pleasing than a big obstacle also just to be clear, caltrops are a horrible idea legally; the law is pretty cut and dried that you're liable for the damage caused by any booby traps you set, even on your own property

Cactus Ghost posted:is it only cutting the corner or do they like, back up onto your grass and poo poo too Oh the camera only shows only one small part of the yard/driveway. The driveway is actually like 450’ long and sometimes the delivery drivers back up into the yard halfway down instead of coming to the big turn-around area, or they drive down along side the pavement in the wet wet squishy grass. A couple of years ago we caught a driver turning around in the grass halfway and I went out on the deck to say something. His reaction was to scream “gently caress YOU MOTHERFUCKER” over and over and over and flip me off while driving away. His van left 8” deep ruts 10 feet into the yard. If it had been RWD he’d have been absolutely stuck. Recently, the FedEx driver pulled forward directly into a small tree and broke one of the trunks, and my wife had to go pull the branches back so his van wouldn’t get even more damaged. Basically if you take any part along the length of my driveway, someone has managed to gently caress around and damage the property, either through sheer incompetence or malice. Here’s what the driveway looks like. Not exactly an autocross course of obstacles to avoid.

You're in Pennsylvania right? Isn't that one of the more gun friendly states? How about just a few warning shots to deter them from telling you to gently caress off after driving on your lawn?

The most aesthetical solution is probably a big boulder on the corner, then a line of light posts along the road. If that doesn't work, dig a 1 foot deep, 2 feet wide ditch along it. When they get stuck only offer to call a recovery service, not pull them out yourself.

Get a bunch of those big rear end concrete blocks with the cables sticking out the tops and for every new paint scrape, have a sign that you change that says something like "(x number) Amazon drivers and counting!!"

This long continuous driveway looks like an obstacle every step of the way, so why not just install a drop off container where your driveway meets the public road? Where your mailbox already is, I presume?
