How to Check ID for Deliveries
Sherpa drivers need to check the recipient's ID for certain deliveries, such as:
- Alcohol
- Tobacco products
- Specified recipient delivery
- Age-restricted items (e.g., knives, spray paint)
Steps to Check an ID Effectively
- Verify the Name: Ensure the name on the ID matches the order unless the order specifies someone else can collect it.
- Check the Age: Make sure the recipient is over 18 years old.
- Inspect the ID for Tampering: Look for signs of fraudulent identification or any amendments to the date of birth on the ID. For digital ID, this will have a different process. Ensure the digital ID is legitimate and not a screenshot by requesting the recipient to refresh the image.
Important Reminders
- In all states, ID checks are mandatory for all alcohol deliveries, regardless of the recipient’s age of appearance.
