Have you experienced problems during your consignment’s shipment? There are many processes that need to be completed in order for your shipment to reach its destination. A slight hiccup along the way could lead to a variety of issues for your courier even though couriers are specially trained to be able to handle problems thrown at them. However, occasionally, things can still go wrong. In this article, we are taking a look at some of the challenge’s couriers face. 

Incorrect address 

If you have entered an incorrect address that does not exist it will become an uncollected shipment. Always double check that you are entering the right details whether you’re ordering online or shipping an item yourself. This is of particular importance if you are planning to ship to a residential area or a block of flats as additional factors such as access codes, postal boxes, and more will need to be specified in advance.  

External factors  

 Weather and traffic conditions, accidents, and traffic can result in either a delayed delivery or an unsuccessful one. In such cases, an uncollected shipment will be rescheduled for another working date or weekend if possible. Additionally, if there are maintenance works, they may prevent the courier from delivering to your area.  

Technical problems  

Technical issues can occur at any given time despite efforts to prevent them. Sometimes, unfortunately, they are out of the courier’s control and they can temporarily lead to a shortage of services. If the courier driver doesn’t arrive on your chosen date and you are left with an uncollected shipment, once again, check with the company to see if they face some unexpected technical problems.
