Why Are Failed Deliveries a Problem?
Every time a courier attempts delivery and no one is home, the delivery vehicle must return later or reroute the package — often more than once. This leads to:
-
-
Extra mileage (more CO₂ emissions)
-
Increased fuel consumption
-
Wasted delivery time and costs for courier companies
-
Greater neighborhood traffic and noise
-
Missed packages and customer frustration
-
Industry studies show that up to 10-15% of first delivery attempts fail, especially in cities. Multiply that by millions of parcels daily, and the environmental cost quickly adds up.
