Anyone else have problems with deliveries?

Randie N Well, At least they made it to you. So that’s good
lkrfletcher I ordered on Monday evening and recieved it this morning. Once again it looks like UPS has played football with the boxes. I ordered meat lugs and smaller items, including a scale was packaged inside of them and protected. Unfortunately the stainless table was scratched and dented. I have a email in to customer service to see what my options are. Although I could never prove it, I’m pretty sure this is a UPS issue. Jonathon and Austin , I am tagging you just as an FYI.

I always seem to have problems getting packages delivered. A lot of times when I order they end up shipping usps and when I expect to get my package I end up with the nice little orange card that says your package can’t be delivered so then I have to wait up to maybe 4 to 7 days until I can get a chance to go to the post office even though I have paid for 2 day delivery. Besides that issue here is what I just came home to tonight. My new stuffer and mixer sitting out in the rain for who knows how many hours. It’s not like I have a big covered porch where you walk into the house to put them out of the weather. This isn’t the first time either. I have found packages days after they were supposed to be delivered just randomly sitting in the driveway or along the side of the house. Sorry just had to vent some frustration after a long crappy day at work

GWG8541 man, I better check mine! That is the only thing I didn’t open to look at!!!

I’m pretty lucky. My UPS guy is pretty cool. He takes my stuff and places it right under our little roof at the entry door.

This happened at one of the mail boxes in my neighborhood, someone ran them over, no mail was stolen so it was an accident. But allegedly USPS won’t make deliveries until they are fixed.

GWG8541 im starting to question what is going on with packages from kansas to destination. Every Waltons order i receive the box is destroyed like you have pictured. I will say that every claim i have put in has been replaced but its becoming all too common. Im sure Waltons doesnt like giving out twice the product for shipping damages or losses. We get tons of packages the entire year and Waltons are the only ones damaged so i know its not my awesome UPS guy. I had fedex throw my pakages before but UPS sets them nicely and discreetly when possible. The packages i just received on Wednesday was slightly banged up but product inside was all ok

twilliams I wonder if they have some sort of insurance that covers problems like this? I am sure they do with the amount of shipping they do.

twilliams yeah, the delivery guy here is good. I have a video door bell and he does a good job delivering. Its somewhere between Kansas to here that the wheels fall of the wagon.

HerbcoFood That is true, they won’t deliver to a damaged box. I was in MN in early Nov. and someone backed into the group box at my brothers place, luckily the guy lived up to it and ordered a new one. We installed it when I was there and they then started delivering mail.

GWG8541 Yikes, the boxes look the way that I get them. Of course you table looks like the way FedEx shipped a bin rack to me twice before I told Lowes I was done and took the third damage one and a check for $200

So far I have had no problems with delays or damaged packages. My guess is that it depends on which regional UPS distribution centers that the packages are going through.
Maybe Jonathon and Austin can find a common denominator through order histories that have had a larger number of complaints of damaged packages and or delays. They might be able to narrow down with the help of UPS, which distribution centers might have employees that are damaging packages. They probably have a dollar amount at which anything above that requires insurance. Anything below that they eat the cost of replacement. All of this raises the cost of shipping.
When I worked for Rock River Arms they always had issues with UPS. When ever I took a custom pistol to shipping they would usually call me to ask what the value was for insurance. Of course firearms can only be shipped to FFL holders and require a signature for delivery. Smaller orders of just parts, accessories, apparel etc. weren’t usually insured.

Randie N Contact your postmaster at your local post office if you can’t get satisfaction with your carrier.

Randie N I couldn’t find your order through our online system, did you place this order online or call it in? Can I have the order or shipping number? I want to send this to Customer Service so they can show our UPS rep what happened, I have no idea how UPS thinks that is acceptable. This makes me even more grateful for my UPS driver who is a great guy and does a good job

Do you want to know what’s even more strange. I knew I was missing a package of quite a few items but figured they may have just been separated in shipping somehow because I ordered the stuffer 3 days earlier yet was delivered with the mixer I ordered on cyber Monday. I have had some very long days at work the past 4 days so just getting to read some of this stuff.
Well curiosity got me, I was going to call Waltons to check on the rest of my order but before I did I thought I would check the porch…and it was left on my porch! ??? So part of the order was left on the porch and part was left out in the rain. At least the sawdust I ordered was left on the porch because one bag had a hole in it and sawdust all thru the package. That could have been a soggy mess. Lol.
Anyway I guess I could have bigger problems. I was just frustrated with the 16 hour work days. At least I can see that I’m not the only one with issues. -

Filed a claim for lost mail and twice they said it was found and delivered and it wasn’t. I had about given up on it when I saw them deliver to the community box on Sunday and I went and checked and it was there, but they never notified me when they actually did make the delivery.

My son ordered some things for us. I think UPS was the delivery company on this one. One of the items was left at the front door, stop & drop style & when he called to check on the other items, the CS person said it was delivered at the same time & confirmed by the shipper. He would have to file a claim with UPS. I told him to hold off just a little bit, as that can be a total PITA, especially since he had already documented it with the seller. The item showded up about three days later, stop & drop style at the front door. Those new drivers, they won’t even give us a chance to train them right & make their lives easier these days.

We operate a business from home so we pack and ship alot of packages as well as receive shipments.
Some individual delivery carriers do a better job than other, to be sure.
For Randie N , he has a tough situation. No one home to accept deliveries that are too large to fit in the mail box. The delivery person has to make judgement call whether the package can be safely left out or need to leave a “come and get your package” card in the mail box. Neither situation is ideal, but it does not sound like he has many options either.What I personally find unacceptable is when the carrier, always Fedex or UPS, leaves the package on the ground next to our mail box by the street where anyone can just pick it up and take it. Our house is several hundred feet from the street so we may not even know the package is sitting out down there. Most of the time they will come up the driveway and leave the package at the door, but lately they have been leaving them down by the road.
The USPS carrier will never leave a package by the road. He is really good and will leave it at the door or leave a card in the box if it is a signature required delivery.
