no safe place

the state in which a parcel cannot be left at the delivery address because there is no secure suitable place there to leave it unattended when no one is available to receive it.

In plain English

This means the driver has nowhere at the address that is both secure and suitable for leaving the parcel on its own. It applies when no one is available to receive it, so the parcel cannot be left there unattended.

In context

Here, it states that the package was not left because there was no secure suitable place at the address to leave it unattended when nobody was available to receive it.

Situation

Meaning limits

It only identifies the lack of a secure suitable unattended drop-off place at that time, not any broader problem with the parcel or address.

Examples
