Take Control of your Shipments

It is important that you know how to stay ahead of the delays. Here are a few ways that you can take control and help reduce the impacts of these expected delays around this time of year due to the Holidays and Weather.

  1. Pick your method wisely
    • All carriers are facing Heavy Package Volumes and Driver shortages.
    • Ground Shipments are continuing to have extended delivery times averaging around 2-3 days longer.
    • Although the carriers strive to deliver your packages as quickly as possible – at this time all “Delivery Guarantees” are suspended through January 2022.
  2. Utilize pick up locations
    • Don’t forget to utilize the FedEx or UPS pickup locations.
    • This is a great way to avoid missing the first delivery attempt!
  3. Place your orders early
    • With the New Year quickly approaching – be sure to get your orders placed the week of 12/13/2021 to ensure you are ready to go before the end of the year.
    • Remember, we are here to help support getting your new equipment up and running!
  4. Ensure your shipping address is complete!
    • Be sure your shipping address is complete including a company name and/or suite/apt number when applicable.
