Taping an envelope to your door clearly visible for the delivery person would still remain contactless. If the envelope is still there when you pick up your items, then no harm in trying

Is there an app to deliver cash to my house? I haven't been to an ATM in at least a year.

/s but only kind of.

you do have a point. i have used cashapp more in the past 4 months than i have ever used it.

And if it's not, then you'll wonder if it went to the Instacart driver or the UPS guy.

(well, not my UPS guy, he's actually a she, and she gives my dogs treats when she sees him)

You kind of know if you have deliveries coming to your house, right? You get to schedule your Insta deliveries, so just don't make your Insta deliver 10:30am, 3pm, or 9pm. Should avoid the UPS delivery

I live in a condo with 4 doors in close proximity, so I don't really know when UPS, Fededx, Ontrac, Amazon Delivery or USPS are coming -- UPS could come anytime from 8am-6pm, and sometimes more than once a day.

Fair enough. I wasn't considering non-single family locations. At that point, you wouldn't know if it was a rando walking down the corridors let alone an actual delivery person. No good deed goes unpunished

This is what I do. I write INSTACART on it. Everyone loves cash.

How do you secure it?

People steal Amazon packages regularly, I think they would not hesitate to steal something that says "Instacart" on it.
