Do you trust your neighbours?

One in four Britons would not trust a neighbour to take a parcel - Telegraph

An advantage of living in a little village, its a nice community. I'd trust most of my neighbours. I don't think even MR PIKEY SCUM would steal my stuff.

I live in a semi-detached (yeah, I know, INKSPE) - and my neighbours used to own our house before they moved next door (more enclosed garden for their kids). We trust each other with parcels, motorcycle tyres and stuff like that.

not a problem we get on with all our neighbours, even the slightly loopy one.

The only neighbours I have and have had who I don't trust are students.

The rest - regardless of background and age are trusted taking in parcels and vice versa. Simply because if you are likely going to live in a place for over a year you don't tulip on your own doorstep.

To take a parcel, yes. To not let their relatives park blocking my drive when they come to visit, no.

My next door neighbour is 3 miles away.

No problem. I often take parcels for people half-way down the street as the couriers/postman knows I WFH.

The thing I don't trust is the courier to actually leave the card saying I have the parcel. I've had things for days sometimes.

My next door neighbour is 3 miles away. I live in Islington.
