What is Late Deliveries?
A delay from the agreed time on the part of the seller is known as a late delivery. The buyer is not responsible for this delay. Late shipping delivery from a courier company or E-commerce store is sometimes responsible for it. Parcels can take longer than usual to be delivered due to the following reasons:
The most common factors resulting in delayed delivery are misspelled, incomplete or outdated addresses, failed delivery attempts, incorrectly completed order forms, package redirections, customs, and poor weather conditions. Sometimes difficult-to-access property can also lead to these delays: problems such as no doorbell, unclear address at said location, protective pets, and maintenance work around the building area are not uncommon.
“Invention, it must be humbly admitted, does not consist in creating out of void but out of chaos.” ― Mary Shelly
