Amazon deliveries.

Want to order an item off Amazon that’s sold by a third party but fulfilled by Amazon. It’s about the size of a small airline carry on case and weighs around 5kg with a value of £325.
As I’m not going to be at home when they deliver they’ll almost certainly try a neighbor. Thing is I live in a mansion block where there’s a lot of work going on and I’ll concerned that a workman will sign for it and disappear with it. It’s to big and heavy to have it sent to work etc.
In the past I’ve had a delivery on a Sunday (which would be perfect) after a failed delivery in the week.
I can’t see how to select a Sunday delivery..... any ideas? Is it possible? I do have Prime.
Thanks.

Thanks both.... Amazon Locker isn’t really an option as I don’t want to lug the item home. Interestingly although the cast majoritysaid the item was too big for an AL there was 1 that would have accepted it.
Couldn’t see how I could select a Sunday. Any emergency over as a friend will come over and house sit on Thursday to accept the delivery.
It’s interesting that buying online seems to have improved light years but the actual getting the stuff still seems to be in the dark ages.
