Guest receives packages at your house, when you dont' allow guests to recieve mail. (USA locations)

However, what you may not realize, is that these laws about mail, only cover items delivered by the USPS, not items delivered by other companies like Amazon or Fedex. Simply put, if your guest has an item delivered by Amazon or Fedex or UPS, you are under NO LEGAL OBLIGATION to make any effort to return that item.

According to the Federal Trade Commission, any merchandise mailed to you that you did not order may be legally kept as a free gift. That goes for Amazon or any other retailer who ships goods, and includes any incorrect items mailed to your address, even if the package is correctly addressed to you.
