After every failed attempt, the carrier leaves a notification card telling you when the next attempt will be made and what options you have to redirect the delivery to another address, for example. Free forwarding can be arranged over the phone and at normal telephone rates. Please call +49 (0)6131-2770-770. Remember to have the parcel number at hand. After three failed attempts, the package is returned to us. In this case, we will contact you to discuss how to proceed.
