Sendle's Environmental Impact
Sendle is a shipping company that claims to be America's first 100% carbon-neutral shipper. According to their website, they offset the CO₂ emissions released for every package shipped with them by investing in environmental projects via their partner, South Pole. Sendle guarantees that all shipments from their customers are 100% carbon neutral and that being sustainable does not cost more with them.
Choosing Sendle, customers can be part of the solution to reduce the negative impact of shipping on the environment. The company claims that incorporating their carbon neutral delivery seal into websites, checkout pages or packaging slips can give customers one more reason to feel good about purchasing from a business.
In addition to offsetting carbon emissions via environmental projects, Sendle also reduces CO₂ emissions by filling the unused capacity in trucks already on the road. Furthermore, the company has committed to even more carbon reductions to achieve net-zero emissions by 2030.
Where to find your Sendle Tracking Numbers
If you are having trouble finding your Sendle package, the first step is to locate your Sendle tracking number.
This can typically be found in confirmation or notification emails that you have received, and it is a 6-8 character combination of letters and numbers that always starts with an ‘S’. Once you have located your tracking number, you can enter it into the Sendle tracking tool to see a snapshot of your shipment's tracking progress.
Troubles You May Have with Your Sendle Packages
In the rare event that your package is marked as "delivered" but you cannot find it, there are several possible scenarios to consider. If your package was marked as "delivered" with a signature, it may have been signed for by a colleague, family member, friend, or neighbor. Additionally, it could have been transferred to a third-party agent to complete delivery, especially if you live in a more rural area. If it was accidentally scanned as delivered when it was still in transit, it's recommended to wait for an additional tracking scan.
On the other hand, if your package was marked as "delivered" without a signature, it may have been left in a safe place on your property due to Sendle's 'Authority To Leave' policy. If it was accidentally scanned as delivered when it was meant to be scanned as in-transit, waiting for another day for an additional tracking scan is still recommended.
