What can I do about a bad mail carrier?
Start by calling your local PO and asking the Postmaster to call you back, or better, go there and speak to the Postmaster in person. Bring info about specific instances, as much as you can. Get other people along the route involved if possible, to replicate the complaints.
Can a mailman not deliver your mail?
In extreme cases, the post office can actually require customers to get a post office box and pick up mail themselves. “Anything which presents a hazard to the carrier, the carrier is within his rights to not deliver the mail.
