I also wonder how this will work in large cities. Packages to my condo are delivered to a non Amazon locker in our parking garage, my building doesn't have a spot where drones could even make deliveries safely. Residents lack roof access.
Packages left outdoors get stolen in a few minutes, which happens more often than not with Amazon's gig economy delivery drivers. They seem incapable of delivering packages to our locker, let alone a pile by the mailboxes. They're left outside the front door way too often.
To clarify: I don't fault the individuals. The flex driver program itself is broken. "Gig economy" seems to be a way to avoid minimum wage and employment laws.
