Preventing Future 'Return to Sender' Issues
Include complete recipient details such as email, phone number, and address in shipping information to reduce delivery issues.
Respond quickly to UPS communications requesting additional shipment details to avoid delays or returns.
Monitor delivery attempts; after two unsuccessful tries, arrange to pick up the package at the local UPS facility to prevent returns.
If UPS can't deliver a package to the return address on the label, they may fall back on your Default Ship From address. Keeping that address updated in your Account Settings can add an extra layer of protection for your package in case of issues!
