Video shows Amazon delivery driver hurling packages at home near Toronto

A shocking incident captured by a doorbell camera at a home near Toronto shows an Amazon delivery driver hurling packages onto a customer's doorstep. 

The 13-second clip, uploaded to X by 6ixBuzzTV, shows the driver approaching the steps of the home and subsequently flinging a medium-sized box at the door, making a loud thud. 

The driver then tosses an envelope package at the door like a frisbee, and continues on with their route. 

The clip ignited lots of polarizing conversations online about how packages are handled, with some folks criticizing Amazon and others coming to the defence of the driver. 

"I work at an airport packing these things and I promise they get thrown around and beat up a lot more than this," one person responded

"What's wrong with people? I'd do the job with the mindset of 'what if it was me expecting the package?' It takes nothing to walk to the door to drop it and reduce the risk of damaging it," another comment reads

In a statement to blogTO, an Amazon spokesperson said that the company is committed to delivering packages to customers that arrive safely, quickly, and in good condition.

"Any customers with questions or feedback about their delivery experience are encouraged to contact our customer service, who can investigate specific incidents related to a customer's account," the spokesperson told blogTO.
