Questions and answers relative to tracking a parcel

I can't find my package.

If you cannot locate your package, first check the tracking number provided in your shipping confirmation email or notification. Verify the tracking number is correct and use it to track your package on our website or through our tracking portal. If the tracking number is not yet active, check in 12 hours later. It’s possible that the information has not been processed by the system yet. If, upon checking at a later date, the package still remains unlocated, please contact our customer support team for further assistance.

I lost my tracking number.

If you have lost your tracking number, don’t worry! You can typically find it in the confirmation email or shipping notification sent when your order was processed. If you cannot find your tracking number, please contact our customer support team with your order details, and we will assist you in tracking your package.

Can I change the delivery date?

Once an order has been processed and is out for delivery, it is generally not possible to directly change the delivery date. However, depending on the delivery options available for your order, you might be able to reschedule the delivery or redirect the package to a different address for an additional fee. Please check the tracking information for available options or contact our customer support team for help.

When will I receive my package?

The estimated delivery date for your package depends on various factors such as the selected shipping method, the destination address, and potential transit delays. You can use the provided tracking number to track your package’s progress on our website or through our tracking portal for real-time updates and the expected delivery date.

What happens if I can't receive my package in person?

If you are unable to receive your package in person, and a safe-drop is impossible or the parcel must be delivered hand to hand, we will notify you that we attempted delivery and were unable to reach you. At that point, the parcel will be returned to an obibox depot and another attempt will be made at a later date, or the parcel will be brought to a nearby location and available for pickup. Depending on the delivery service selected, you may also have the option to reschedule delivery or provide specific instructions. Refer to the delivery notification or tracking portal for available options or contact our customer support team for further assistance.

My package shows 'Out for Delivery.' Can I track the delivery in real-time?

While we strive to provide real-time tracking updates, the availability of such tracking depends on the stage the parcels is at and the specific delivery service selected. Use the provided tracking number to track your package on our website or through our tracking portal for the most current information on its status and estimated delivery time.

The tracking status hasn't been updated in a while. Is there a delay with my package?

Delays in updating tracking information can occur due to network congestion, weather conditions, or processing delays at sorting facilities. We monitor the progress of your package closely and will provide updates as soon as new information is available. Sometimes an update can take several hours. If you have concerns about your package’s status, please contact our customer support team for assistance.

I received a delivery attempt notification, but I wasn't home. What should I do?

If you were not home to receive your package and received a delivery attempt notification, your parcel will be returned to our facility and rescheduled for delivery at a later date or returned to a nearby location for pickup. Depending on the delivery service selected, you may also have the option to reschedule delivery directly via your tracking portal or provide specific instructions. Refer to the delivery notification or tracking information for available options or contact our customer support team for assistance.

My package shows 'Delivered,' but I haven't received it. What should I do?

If your package is marked ‘Delivered’ but you have not received it, check with household members, neighbors, or building managers who might have accepted the delivery on your behalf. Occasionally, carriers may prematurely mark packages as ‘Delivered,’ so it is possible that your package will arrive shortly. Check pictures and notes found in your tracking portal. If you still cannot find your package, please contact our customer support team for further assistance. We will work with the delivery team to investigate the issue and resolve it promptly.

Can I request special delivery instructions or provide delivery preferences?

Depending on the delivery service selected and our policies, you may request special delivery instructions or provide delivery preferences, such as specifying a location, leaving the package with a neighbor, or in a designated safe spot. Some options may include delivery notifications and alerts to keep you informed about your package’s status and manage your delivery preferences. Refer to the delivery notification or tracking information for available options or contact our customer support team for assistance in setting up special delivery instructions.
