Shipping Notification!!

FedEx isn't open on Sunday's; there 1 day off. VW has processed it thru the online system but FE hasn't processed it yet. So they're all ready to be picked up by FE on Monday.

Anyway, my delivery method says 2 Day Service, estimated delivery date of the 28th. I should more than likely get it Tuesday morning, as I live close to Memphis and had it delivered to work. Businesses are always delivered in the morning; residential in the afternoon.

Thats the odd thing I thought FedEx was shut down on Sunday's as well...however my tracking number tracked through the FedEx site says they picked it up TODAY.

I'd bet FedEx is a 24/7 operation. They simply don't do delivery on Sundays. Their core delivery schedule is business days with special Saturday availability. But they're likely always moving the packages.

I am having mine shipped to my work, but my tracking info says it might be out on the truck til seven. My work's mailroom closes at around four. Should I call fedex and have them hold it at the final location (which is almost right around the corner from where I work) and pick it up there on my lunch break? How would I even go about doing that?

From my experience they won't hold it at the FedEx sort facility until the initial delivery attempt has been made. Believe me, I have tried several times in the past.

I called today and asked this exact question - will fedex hold it at the local dist facility and let me come pick it up instead of home delivery because there will be some portion of the day on Wed that nobody will be home.

she said to call back tomorrow/Monday and check because it just shows as "picked up" right now. once they know the exact facility that the local delivery will originate from, then they can determine if this is available. sounded like it probably is, just need to make sure.

Congratulations if you can get them to do that. I have tried no less than 3 times in the past with phones and laptops and have been unsuccessful. Hope you can.
