Does UPS tracking usually say item is deleivered a little while before it is?

[Stiler]

On my item tracking # for ups it says that it was deleivered at 3:43pm today and i was here and nothing was deleivered, none of my neighbors have it or anything.

It could, depends on if the driver marks it delivered, while he is getting organized the delivery of the packages to a certain area.

It should say Out For Delivery when it leaves the UPS buildings heading to you.

That means yo ugot a driver that'll just leave the package at the door if nobody is home. In fact, i think most UPS drivers just ring the doorbell and leave unless they ahve to get a signature.

He probably marked it delivered when he was loading his truck.

well it said out for deleivery this morning at like 5:45am which i know they don't come that early, usually the ups guy does just leave it on the porch but i checked and nothing is outside anywhere. and he usually comes around now, 6-6:30, but so far nothing , argh and my ups local place is only open 1 HOUR! 5-6, argh.

kelvrick: why would a driver scan a package delivered before he actually delivers it?

they have to manually scan the package with a diad to tell when it was delivered, and the computer logs the time, AFAIK. i'll have to ask my account rep how a diad works better tomorrow.

does it say DELIVERED: DR - PORCH or FRONT DOOR or something? you might have a loss claim on your hands

It says:

Status: Delivered
Delivered on: May 16, 2002 3:43 P.M.
Location: PORCH
Delivered to: ATHENS, TN, US
Shipped or Billed on: May 14, 2002

I was HERE at the time, no door bell ring nothing, i checked outside at 4 for it and nothing left here at 4:30 and come back and stil nothing so i checked and thats when i seen it said deleivered.

I have had them show delivered before they arrived, & then been there to take it out of the driver's hands when they rang the doorbell.

So it does happen.
