Package sent to guest at host's home... input/advice welcome!

I have a guest who checked in a few nights ago. Solo occupant -- staying for 8 days. I asked him in passing  what he does for a living. He was vague ( something about "fulfillment shipping on the secondary market -- mostly through Amazon and Ebay"). 

 

Doorbell just rang and there's a priority overnight package addressed to him and delivered to my house. (He did not ask.) 

 

Does this seem weird to anyone else? Is it normal to get packages delivered to a host's house -- especially without asking and coordinating? Am I being unreasonable feeling uncomfortable with him receiving packages at my house?

 

Inputs from all sides -- and past experierence -- welcome!

 

Thanks!!

What wording do you use in your house rules?

Hi @Angie908

 

I hope you're well! I'll tag in @Scott1990 here for you so they get a notification  of your message and can hopefully come back to share more insights.

 

As this is a conversation from a few years ago, I'd also recommend starting a new discussion if you would like more advice on how to word this in your house rules: 👉 start a new conversation.

 

Have a lovely day, 

 

Emilie

@Hillaire0 It is as simple as requesting the guest direct their mail to the local post office and pick it up from there... H
