I think it may be the UPS assholes in Reading!  In Chicago, you can't call
the UPS branch offices either, so you call their central number and they
track your package to the branch office and hold it there for you.  Also
the UPS guy who delivers by me is good enough and has enough brains that if
you are not home when he comes the first time, he makes a special effort to
deliver after 4:30 the next day.  I can usually work my schedule to be home
by then.
