Do you have your parcels sent to your home address? Ever come home to a missed delivery card? We’ve come up five ways to help you avoid missing deliveries in the future.
If your parcel is already on its way to you, you will need to contact your local New Zealand Couriers branch to organise your parcel to directed to an address where you or someone you know will be present at time of delivery.
Find your local branch contact details here.
Completing one of these steps will simplify the delivery process and allow you to avoid missing deliveries.
For many areas in New Zealand we offer our customers the chance to receive packages even when they’re not home. This ‘Authority to Leave’ system is quick to join and easy to manage, and it means we can then leave your package at the agreed address without obtaining a signature.
After signing up, we install a small bar-coded tag for you at the agreed location on your property (somewhere dry and safe). Your courier driver will have this location on file, place your deliveries there and scan your tag. This will record the time of delivery to that specific location in our online tracking system.
Provide us with Authority to Leave your item at a safe location at your delivery address. Complete an Authority to Leave form and we will take care of the rest. This Authority would relate to any item addressed to your home.
