I have an order that originally was to be delivered on the 14th. Tracking info indicated the label had been created, but nothing more. I checked yesterday and the package was on the way, to be delivered yesterday. Today, the tracking info indicates the package is on the way, but still not out for delivery.

Send a note to them saying there is a puppy in the box.

UPS has been flakey here too.
Some days are very good and others they just push it out.

I had an episode with them last year.
Of course, it was something we needed fast, a bearing for a feed grinder.
I got all these notifications, every step of the way, until it got close, then it went backwards. They told me it was delivered, but, it actually was returned to the vender.
As near as I can surmise, the thing was shipped, supposedly weighing in at .7 pounds when it actually weighed 7 pounds. I assume that UPS considered that as fraud and wasted their time to make a point of it. The company re-shipped it, but, this time there were no progress reports at all.
So, a piece that we needed, shoulda come in 2 days, took an extra week to arrive.

The brown truck went by here yesterday at about 1:00pm. Never even slowed down.
Supposedly the package has been rescheduled, and is to be delivered today. The ONE day out of the whole week that I cannot be home. I guess it will be OK setting next to the back door for awhile, but I really am not expecting it.

Oh, yeah, we had one that didn’t get delivered and somebody from UPS called me. My wife is paranoid about calls like that, afraid of phishing. But it had a legitimate looking phone number. I called it back and found out the driver couldn’t find the place, they tried it again and he couldn’t find us. Finally figured out the older woman that took my order screwed up the house number.
Good thing that one wasn’t a box of chicks or a puppy!
It seems like there is a different driver every time. We used to have the same guy and he woulda delivered it without an address, I believe.

Yes! We had the same driver for a long, long time, but he retired. Seems like a different driver each time now. |

The package was delivered yesterday. Found it on the sidewalk next to the back door, which was his only choice since we were not home. The package did contain some haz-mat stuff. Technically it should have required a signature. Fed-Ex follows those rules to the letter. UPS? Not so much.

Something else that I found to be interesting. I didn't see the truck that delivered my package, but the UPS truck that went by the day before was a much smaller truck--single wheel rear axle as opposed to the usual dual wheeled rear axle.
