if a transporter breaks a package that's usually their problem to pay for it and deliver you a new package.
I don't know where you are from but there are dedicated alcohol retailers here. I assume they realise the costs of alcohol and transportation troubles and have some kind of solution to it. Alternatively you could accept the transport cost as "the cost of convenience".
I recently heard a story of a friend who walked to his local bottle shop and then caught an Uber home because it was more convenient than carrying his drinks that distance; at ~$5-10 extra for "delivery fee" its not very much more expensive, also he got a ride home.
I have been trying to accept the costs of living and "convenience" in my life more, and be more willing to pay for services that can put small and pointless problems "out of my mind", to give me more opportunity to put my mind to better use.
