Quote:UPS announced the launch of UPS Delivery Intercept, an automated service that gives customers ultimate flexibility and control by enabling shippers to intercept and reroute packages before they're delivered.full press release: http://pressroom.ups.com/pressreleases/c...77,00.html
UPS Delivery Intercept is the industry's only Web-enabled package interception service. With UPS Delivery Intercept, a shipper simply uses a UPS package application such as UPS WorldShip®, UPS CampusShip® or UPS Internet Shipping®, clicks on the 1Z tracking number and requests a reroute. Interception requests also can be made through a shipper's myups.com account as well as via UPS Signature Tracking®.
Shippers can access the service 24/7 to request UPS to intercept packages being shipped from and to anywhere in the United States and Puerto Rico. Building on other established UPS technologies, customers who use Quantum View Notify can receive notification of the requested and successful interceptions. Receivers also can view the intercept status when they track the package on any UPS visibility system...
With UPS Delivery Intercept, shippers have a number of options once UPS intercepts a package, including:
* Return the package to the shipper.
* Redirect the package to a new address.
* Hold the package for delivery on a future date.
* Hold the package for pickup by the consignee...
