How would you handle UPS packages with this setup?

If someone has a home on a few acres with an electric gate how would they get packages from UPS if the gate is kept closed?

Yes take the “Tried to Deliver” slip to listed depot.

You can sign up for the UPS My Choice service, which allows you to leave specific instructions on how and where you want packages delivered. When we order pricey or bulky items that we don’t want left on our stoop, we have the merchant ship to our work address, since no one is home on most afternoons when our UPS delivery comes.

Pick them up. There is less drama that way

A homebuilder told me they have an intercom and, when UPS comes, they call you and you open the gate for them from inside the house.
