*Please note: Package Protection timeframes for filing apply.
Order marked as unfulfilled or unshipped
- If the customer’s order is marked as unfulfilled or unshipped, the order hasn’t been fulfilled yet by the retailer (retailer could be low on inventory of the items, internal delays with the fulfillment center, etc.).
- Package Protection does not control how quickly the retailer ships the customer’s order. Route Package Protection is not yet in action because the order has not shipped.
Order issue filed too soon
If the customer is filing an order issue the same day that the package was marked as delivered, at our discretion Route may ask you to wait 5 business days. Carriers (FedEx, USPS, UPS, DHL, etc.) sometimes prematurely mark the package as delivered when it’s still in transit.
How are Stolen Packages Handled?
Delivered but missing package
At our discretion, Package Protection requires a police report when the customer’s package is marked as delivered.
- Customer files the police report and includes an explanation that Package Protection is a package protection company that has protected the customer’s package that has been stolen. To process the order issue with Package Protection, Package Protection is requiring a police report.
- Send Route the police report PDF & number in the order issue.
Upon request, Package Protection can require additional documentation (e.g. proof of identity, address, etc.). Note: Depending upon the jurisdiction, a false police report may be charged as a misdemeanor or a felony **Order issues for packages marked "delivered" yet not received are considered by Route as stolen and must be filed 5 days after “delivery date” but no longer than 15 days to ensure it was not misdelivered or easily found around the premises.
Filing a police report

How are Damaged Items Handled?
Broken items
- If the customer received a broken item and needs to dispose of it (i.e. shattered glass), the customer needs to check their city ordinances and dispose of it properly.

Damaged items

Subscription items
- For existing subscriptions where your customers have purchased Package Protection, if any of your customer's items in the subscription were lost, stolen, or damaged in transit and can be purchased individually, Route will reorder them. If the items cannot be purchased, then Package Protection will refund the items.
- Package Protection cannot reorder and create an entirely new subscription because Package Protection would be paying for the customer's monthly subscription.
Customized items

Out of stock

- Order issues for packages presumed to be lost by the carrier (where the status is not "delivered") must be filed no sooner than 7 days after the scheduled delivery date for United States domestic shipments (20 days for international shipments, including Canada unless a Canadian merchant is shipping within Canada in which case the 7-day domestic shipment timeline applies) and within 30 days from the last checkpoint.
Expedited shipping hasn't arrived
