Lost or Missing Packages
With increased online shopping we've noticed an increase in lost packages by FedEx, UPS and the USPS. It is always the customer's responsibility to provide Cremation Urns Canada with an accurate shipping address and also to track their package once shipped. If there are any issues regarding delivery, the customer must notify both the carrier and Cremation Urns Canada ASAP. FedEx, UPS and the USPS are billion dollar organizations with 99.99% delivery rates but in rare instances they make mistakes and lose packages.
If carrier tracking says a package is 'Delivered' (but not actually received by you), is lost or you think stolen stolen:
Step 1 - Look everywhere. Front door, back door, garage, between doors. Ask neighbors to the left and right and across the street. 99% of the time a temporary driver or substitute driver is the culprit and the odds are highest that the package was in fact delivered, but maybe not to the door you are used to or maybe to the wrong address.
Step 2 - Triple check the address you provided Cremation Urns Canada was in fact accurate and correct. Check street number, zip code, street name, etc.
Step 3 - Track again and call the carrier. As the customer you have local knowledge of streets, neighbors, prior delivery issues, and might even know your regular driver. You can start an investigation.
Step 4 - Call Cremation Urns Canada - Let us know what is going on. We can start an investigation, instead, however we will be given the same information as the customer, nothing additional. If a replacement needs to be sent, see below.
Replacements
In the event that a carrier has lost a package and another item(s) needs to be shipped to meet a funeral service, burial, etc, Cremation Urns Canada will do their best to provide a courtesy discount (usually 20%-50%) and waive any production rush fees to get a replacement out as quickly as possible. Customer is responsible for any shipping charges related to delivering a replacement. If after the carrier investigation Cremation Urns Canada received a credit then the replacement item will be credited in full. Shipping charges for the replacement are not credited as carriers do not credit shipping charges related to shipping replacements.
It is strongly suggested that replacements not be shipped to the original address. Alternative address suggestions; work address, family member address, funeral home, neighbor's address, etc.
