What to do if SF Express Says Delivered But No Package?

Double-check your tracking

The first step is to double-check the tracking and/or delivery note for any extra details.

It could be that the item was delivered to a neighbor or left in a safe place at the property.

If extra information has been provided that will help you locate the delivered package, you have your answer.

Delivery took place and you just need to locate the item.

Check around the delivery location

If the tracking information does not reveal any more details, I still recommend that you go on a little hunt around the delivery location.

Talk to everyone at the address to see if the package was handed over to them and they signed for it and forgot to mention it.

Knock on the neighbor’s door to see if they received the parcel on your behalf.

Ultimately, you will want to make sure that the package is nowhere around the property before you start making inquiries with SF Express.

Possible Explanations for the Discrepancy

Misdelivery of Package

The delivery personnel may mistakenly leave a package at the wrong address due to incorrect scanning or delivery documentation.

Human error is an inherent part of any operation, and such mistakes, although rare, can occur.

Theft or Package Misplacement

Unfortunately, theft or package misplacement can happen during transit or even after delivery if the driver left the item in an unsafe place.

While SF Express takes measures to minimize these incidents, they can still happen.

Porch piracy is a very real thing.
