A household or business shall be regarded ‘nearby’ if the recipient resides in the same building as the original addressee. In addition, the box (parcel) may also be delivered to a recipient residing in proximate walking distance to the delivery address (e.g. same housing complex, building on the opposite side of the street, next-door building). All aforementioned nearby households and businesses are subsequently referred to as “neighbours”.

Delivery Risk

Once the delivery is completed, according to the preceding paragraph (i.e. signed for by customer, left in a safe spot as specified by the customer or considered safe by authorised courier company, or delivered to a neighbour if no leave safe is provided or available) the risk of any damage or loss of the box will be with the customer. Quaintly & Co shall not be held liable for any damage, defect or loss which may occur thereafter.

You are fully responsible for any damages or losses due to any ambiguity regarding the safe spot specified by you. Quaintly & Co is not obliged to review the safe spot as to its general suitability.
