Shocking moment Evri driver is caught throwing parcels onto the street as horrified customer watches on

1. It’s not shocking for anyone who had to use this company.

2. Best not show them the warehouses they came from, primarily those in bags…

   Shit was likely volleyed into the trailer before Evri even had hands on it.

3. I read that as evil driver at first, I was like sure he’s a twat but “evil” is a bit much? lol

4. >who filmed the ordeal.

   odd use of the world ‘ordeal’, its a odd event sure, but an ordeal for who?

5. Ah Evri, who delivered a new keyboard to my garden hedge, and my new mug by throwing it through an open window. This is nothing surprising

6. I worked for Evri and decided enough was enough after being forced to sort my parcels outside in pouring rain.

7. I live in a block of flats with a shared carpark out front, on more than one occasion I’ve seen Evri drivers throwing (not gently) all of their packages out of the van onto the car park. Sometimes even stepping on the packages and smoking the whole time.

   It became a regular occurance last summer, like it was just part of their daily routine.

8. Dpd can also be a mixed bag, but not as bad as evri. We get Gousto delivered by dpd (not by choice) and they often will throw it at the door, in the pouring rain, then not update us or knock. Package full of food, just left in the rain -.-

9. The Evri driver we have around here is amazing, have never had an issue, leaves parcels in decent places when I’m not in

   I don’t think it’s an Evri issue, I think it’s a subcontracted delivery drivers issue which the majority(if not all?) of big delivery companies will be using.

   I think Evri just still gets a lot of the shit purely based on the fact of how shit they were as Hermes. I’ve used Evri for sending hundreds of parcels over the last 12 months and I only had one issue which I got a refund and compensation for. Granted they were difficult to get ahold though.

   They’ve come a long way in the last few years imo and I can see the war in market share for couriers in this country being between Amazon and Evri in the next 30 years. They have both been pushing extremely hard to grow their market share and Royal Mail has been doing almost everything wrong

10. I am not saying this is right or wrong, but I’ve seen Royal Mail do this too.

    The back of Royal Mail vans is not nearly laid our and orderly, or at least they’re aren’t all.

    If you not packaging your items up to survive a 10ft drop then you’re not packaging your items up correct.

11. After working for royal mail back in the early 90’s I always make sure my parcels are so well packaged you could play football with them. I have no worries about this.

12. I had to go to the Evri sorting facility near the end of last year and trust me, this isn’t even bad compared to what I saw in those couple hours.

13. > filmed the ordeal

    I think ordeal is stretching it a bit

14. No surprise at all. One tried to rob my new MacBook! Had to kick off before they finally gave it to me.

15. “The employee was put on a training course and reminded of their responsibilities”😂

16. I wouldnt use Evri even if it would be a free service.

    Ryanair of parcels, absolute scum

17. Just want to add not Evri driver is like this. Ours is an older lady who is lovely.

18. Evri as a company is shit, but I wanna recognise my evri driver Jason, dude is a legend, perfect delivery driver

19. I own a car repair garage, theres an evri collection point where the drivers load up just over the road and every morning I watch the drivers load up and genuinely they stand at the back of the van and throw the parcels into the van, no care is taken whatsoever. There is no way on earth I’d ever send a parcel with them.

20. Certainly bad but I’d wager if you saw your parcels entire route through various depots then this probably wouldn’t be the most shocking part of its journey 😅

21. I’d be more surprised if they spotted an Evri driver NOT launching shit around the van.

    Has anyone ever received a parcel from Evri that’s not been absolutely covered in boot prints or tyre tracks?

22. Once paid for next day delivery with Evri (then Hermes) and they didn’t deliver my stuff for like three weeks cos they said they couldn’t find the house (total bollocks I sat and watched for him) and wouldn’t refund me lmao

23. Remember Evri was Hermes and they had similar headlines every bloody month.

24. Amazon have the prize for delivering food direct to my bin. They’re proper good about fixing their fuckups though.

    I will leave a shitty review for any seller on eBay/Etsy who claims to use a service other than evri then sends by evri.

    And as I’m typing this Alexa has announced I have a package. I better start looking.

25. Alll couriers do this from experience. My old job was partly sorting out deliveries received. All the major courier including Royal Mail would throw them in and out of the van.

    We had some servers to send away and despite telling the driver they were servers and having fragile tape, he still threw them in the van

    Its just Evri got caught doing it

26. How typical of evri (formerly hermes).

    The majority of their delivery guys are thugs or drunken ex cons.

    The best hermes delivery I ever had was given to me by a very hard working little boy under the age of 9. He was delivering a pile of large parcels for half the neighbours while his drunk father was asleep in the van surrounded by opened premium strength lager cans.

27. Doesn’t surprise me, couple of times I’ve bought from Amazon US and every single time without fail it’s sent in from Evri and without fail there’s at least one dent in the box like someone has used it as a football.

    Garbage delivery company. Wouldn’t trust them to deliver a pizza, let alone packages

28. They didn’t even fire him, they gave him “training to remind him what his responsibilities were.”

    Unfuckingbelievable! How was he not fired?

29. There’s a reason for this –

    Evri only sort the parcels into rounds. The parcels are literally thrown in to cages marked for individual rounds. The bag that this courier is using isn’t even supplied by Evri.

    Your Evri courier has to sort their own round into some sort of order themselves. They’re not getting paid for doing this.

    The courier in this footage is sorting their round.
    Throwing the parcels on the ground isn’t on, but remember, they’re only getting paid for the parcels that are *delivered*.
    They’re not paid for anything else.

    Most Evri depots don’t even have anywhere undercover for the couriers to sort their rounds, so the parcels get left to the elements whilst they’re being sorted.

30. Ah yes, Evri formally known as Hermes the shit heeliest of all shit heel delivery companies.

31. Shittiest company in UK, literally no way to contact a real human being if they fuck your parcel up.
