Woman Says the Delivery Driver Dropped Her Mulch in the Street and Told Her to Deal With It

A woman says what should have been a simple delivery turned into a mess before the work even started. She had ordered mulch for a yard project and was expecting it to be dropped where she could actually use it. Instead, she says the driver left the whole load out in the street. Not near the bed. Not tucked onto the edge of the driveway. Right there where cars would have to go around it and where she was now the one left staring at a pile that was suddenly her problem.

What made it even worse, according to her, was the response she got when she pushed back. She says the driver basically told her to deal with it. That is the part that really made the story land. A bad delivery is one thing. Stuff happens. But being left with a giant pile of mulch in the street and then getting an attitude when you question it is the kind of thing that can turn irritation into full-blown anger fast. Now it is not just inconvenient. Now it feels like somebody dumped the problem in front of your house and washed their hands of it.

And mulch is not exactly light, neat, or easy to move once it is in the wrong place. If she had planned to spread it around the yard, that is one thing. But having to suddenly shovel the whole thing out of the street just to keep it from becoming a traffic problem is a completely different job. It changes the whole day. It changes how fast you have to move. And it probably changes your mood in a hurry too, especially if you paid extra for delivery in the first place.

A woman says her mulch was dropped in the street and she was basically told to handle it herself, which is the kind of thing that would make anybody feel like a simple yard project got turned upside down before it even began. If that happened at your house, would you be more mad about where the mulch got dumped or the fact that the driver acted like it was no longer his problem?
