Large Mail Package Pickup

Contact: SEPO Office
Location: Back corner of the Billiards Room (located in the Sunburst Building)
Details:
- For your convenience SEPO has converted the Back corner of the Billiards Room to an overflow package pick-up area. Previously, mail was delivered to the Office. You may access this room by using the keypad installed for security and concerns of package theft. This room is available to residents 24/7. Please be sure to close the door securely as you leave.
- A recent survey from the U.S. Postal Service has revealed that consumers now make 51% of their purchases online and that 26% receive a package once a week.
- The mail carriers servicing Sunshine usually leave you a notice in your mailbox indicating there is a package for you. Please try to pick these up in a timely fashion. SEPO does not provide a designated staff member to accept and store packages. If you have experienced a mis-delivery of items, please notify Valerie in the Office.
- Porch Pirates:
  - Since some packages get left at your doorstep, an infuriating trend has developed. A disturbing statistic bears out that close to 40% of persons have fallen victim. The Porch Pirate targets a special area so they can maximize their reward.
  - A Ring Video Doorbell device may be a solution or ask a neighbor to look out and grab your package. There is also a Package Guard – a nifty device with a weight sensitive stand on which the delivery drivers place your package. Should a Porch Pirate be interested and try to swipe your box, the Package Guard sounds a very loud alarm and the Bad Guy takes off.
  - Tracking Notifications – this helps you to know there has been a delivery and you can check online or by receiving e-mails or texts.
