Please also note:

If the carriers are unable to deliver, then they will normally leave a card giving their contact details so that you can make arrangements with them for a suitable alternative date. They will often make a second attempt anyway, on the day after the first attempt, but are not duty bound to do so.

• Any request to re-route a parcel to an address other then the original delivery address may incur extra costs.
•  If a parcel is returned to us to due to a failed delivery then re-shipping costs may apply.
