Setting up Steps to Prevent Lost Amazon Shipments
💡 When you proceed to checkout, if you come across delivery time slot options, just like that highlighted in the red box shown, please DO NOT select. Otherwise, your package will be handled by independent contract courier, increasing the likelihood of delivery outside of US warehouse office hours and the potential for leaving the package directly at the front door of the warehouse.
Choosing those without specified delivery time slot option below the red box is a more effective way to ensure the safety of your package.
Step 1：Go to Amazon US and log in. Click on “Account & Lists” in the top right corner.
Step 2：Click on “Your addresses”.
Step 3：Enter “Amazon / eBay Applicable Warehouse Address” in “Your addresses” and click “Add delivery instructions”.
Step 4：Choose delivery within US warehouse office hours and click “Add delivery instructions”.
Step 5：Click on “Do we need additional instructions to find this address?”
In the text box below, copy and paste the following sentence:
Please do NOT leave the package if nobody is there to receive it.
Finally, click “Save instructions” to save the changes.
