2) UPS - some successful rate. They do try.
3) FedEx - low successful rate. The look but choose to ignore it.
4) USPS - will not place package as it's not an official mailbox. You could contact your local USPS to place packages but may incur additional charges. You could make box into your mailbox but then other delivery services would not be able to place packages as it would be against the law.
Amazon - 100% (25/25)
FedEx - 100% (1/1)
UPS - 66% (2/3)
Having good placement of the box and signage is very important; make it as clear as possible to the courier on how to operate the box. The included Eufy sticker is NOT sufficient IMO and the voice prompt is unreliable (takes too long to announce). I have a sign on the sides of the box that shows the logos of carriers [media-amazon.com] and a sign on top [imgur.com] to either press open OR enter PIN and open. It's a shame that Eufy didn't provide better signs or shorten the lag for the voice prompt and we have to resort to attaching these signs ourselves, but I am quite happy with the success rate of my box!

Amazon was actually the most difficult as they would constantly walk from the driveway past the box, down the 40ft sidewalk to place at front door. Eventually they got the hang of it after placing special instructions on my account and catching a couple drivers in the act and asking them politely to use the box.
