Usually just accepted the documents/lawsuit, then drove up the mountain to give it to the intended recipient. The first time this happened, business was closed... so I just taped it to the door (and then the owner came out LIVID, thinking I was the process server...).
Only once did the process server actually look on his phone to see that there were in fact two same-addressed properties (and obviously mine was residential).
Of course, what you did was the kind and polite thing but would the process server have any recourse to, "You would be failing to serve that notice if you leave it with me"?
