This typically involves 1-3 attempts depending on the carrier (see details below).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Missed Delivery Notifications:<\/strong> You&rsquo;ll usually receive a notification via email, text, or a physical door tag if a delivery attempt is unsuccessful. This notification will inform you of the next steps and often includes a reference number for tracking purposes.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Hold at Depot Option:<\/strong> If you can&rsquo;t be home for a redelivery attempt, all major carriers allow you to hold your package at a local depot for pick-up at your convenience. This is a great option for busy schedules or unexpected delays.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"no-line\" style=\"font-size: 28px !important; line-height: 36 px !important; color: #367bb1 !important; font-weight: bold !important;\">Carrier specific redelivery policies:<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>UPS:<\/strong> Understanding UPS delivery attempts is straightforward. They&rsquo;ll try to deliver your package up to 3 times. If unsuccessful, they&rsquo;ll hold it for 5 days at a nearby UPS Access Point for pick-up.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Purolator:<\/strong> Purolator differentiates delivery attempts between residences and businesses. For residences, they&rsquo;ll make one attempt with a 5-day hold at the depot. Businesses get a bit more leeway with 3 delivery attempts and a 5-day hold after the final attempt.<\/li>\n<li><strong>FedEx:<\/strong> Similar to UPS, FedEx Ground offers 3 delivery attempts with a 7-10 day hold period at a pick-up location. For urgent deliveries, FedEx Express only attempts delivery once, holding the package for 5 days before sending it back.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"no-line\" style=\"font-size: 28px !important; line-height: 36 px !important; color: #367bb1 !important; font-weight: bold !important;\">Proactive tips to avoid missed deliveries:<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Track Your Package:<\/strong> FlagShip&rsquo;s user-friendly tracking tool allows you to monitor your shipment&rsquo;s progress and estimated delivery date. This proactive approach lets you anticipate potential conflicts and take action.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sign Up for Delivery Alerts:<\/strong> Most carriers offer text or email alerts notifying you when your package is out for delivery. These handy reminders help ensure you&rsquo;re available to receive it.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Request a Signature Release (Use with Caution)<\/strong>: If you absolutely cannot be present for a delivery, some carriers allow a signature release. This waives the requirement for someone to be physically present, but be mindful &#8211; it leaves the package unattended at your doorstep.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"no-line\" style=\"font-size: 28px !important; line-height: 36 px !important; color: #367bb1 !important; font-weight: bold !important;\">What to do if your package still goes missing:<\/h2>\n<p>Despite your best efforts, there&rsquo;s always a chance of unforeseen circumstances.
