UPS

All merchandise is missing and the empty carton was discarded. UPS will notify the sender

UPS tracking parcel

What this status means

UPS found that the parcel arrived without any contents. The outer carton was empty, so UPS threw it away. This is a loss and damage exception, not a normal tracking step. UPS will notify the sender, meaning the company or person who shipped it.

Is my package delayed?

This is an exception, and it usually means a problem rather than a delay. The shipment is unlikely to be delivered as expected, because there is nothing left to deliver. The message by itself does not say what happens to the order, and nothing is guaranteed.

What happens next

UPS contacts the sender and records the shipment as a loss claim or an investigation. The tracking history may stop updating, or it may close with a final note. The sender then decides how to handle the order, usually with a replacement or a refund, depending on their policy.

What you can do

  • Check your email for a message from the seller. They are the ones UPS contacts first.
  • If you have heard nothing after a reasonable wait, contact the seller or marketplace and tell them the tracking shows the contents are missing.
  • Have ready your tracking number, order number, and a description of what you ordered.
  • Keep the tracking page or a screenshot of this message as evidence. If the seller cannot help, ask UPS about the status of the claim.
