How does it work?
The recipient
makes an online purchase and chooses at check out delivery to a Parcel Shop. He views all the list and select the most convenient Shop for his needs.
The Parcel Shop
has a list of expected shipments: the new one is added to the list of incoming shipments until it is delivered by the GLS driver.
The delivery
is ready to pick up. Recipient is notified: he will have 10 days to pick up the package at the Parcel Shop (he will get a reminder after 5 days).
Option A: the pickup takes place
The recipient picks up the package: the Shop collects his signature and the shipment is delivered.
Option B: the pickup does not take place
If the recipient does not pick up the parcel within 10 days, the driver will automatically pick up the undelivered parcel which will be returned to the sender.
And it doesn't end there!
