Download the carrier’s missed delivery notice from its official website and complete it with your tracking number, full name, delivery address, and signature before placing it on your front entrance for the next attempt.
How to Find and Download the Delivery Notice Form
Visit the official site of the courier service and search for “missed delivery notice” or “delivery attempt form.” Open the PDF version provided for customers who were not home at the time of arrival. Save the file to your device and print it on standard US Letter paper (8.5 x 11 inches).
If the original slip left by the driver includes a reference code, enter that code into the tracking section of the website. Many carriers allow you to generate a replacement authorization sheet linked to the shipment number.
Required Information to Enter
- Tracking number from the shipment confirmation email or SMS
- Full recipient name matching the shipping label
- Complete delivery address including apartment or suite number
- Contact phone number for scheduling changes
- Signature authorizing release without direct handoff
Using the Form for Redelivery or Hold for Pickup
Check the appropriate box to request one of the available options: next business day attempt, specific delivery date, or hold at a nearby pickup location. Mark only one choice to avoid processing delays.
Authorizing Release Without Signature
If the shipment does not require an adult signature, you may authorize the driver to leave the package at a designated spot such as a side entrance or reception desk. Clearly describe the location in the space provided. Avoid vague phrases; specify details like “behind the left column near garage door.”
Requesting Pickup at a Service Point
- Select the hold-for-pickup option.
- Choose a nearby service center or partner retail location from the tracking page.
- Bring government-issued photo identification matching the recipient name.
- Pick up within the stated holding period, usually 5–7 calendar days.
Place the completed authorization sheet on your entrance before 8:00 AM on the scheduled date so the courier can collect it during the next attempt.
Printable FedEx Door Tag Form for Redelivery and Pickup
Download the official missed delivery notice from the carrier’s website, enter the tracking number and full recipient details, sign the authorization section, and place the completed sheet at your main entrance before the next delivery window.
Use the shipment number from your confirmation email or SMS to locate the correct document. Make sure the reference code matches the parcel in transit; a single digit error can prevent the driver from processing your request. Print the form on standard 8.5 x 11 inch paper and keep the barcode area clear and unobstructed.
Fill in your full legal name exactly as it appears on the shipping label. Add the complete address, including apartment, unit, or gate code. Provide a mobile phone number that can receive calls during business hours, typically between 8:00 AM and 8:00 PM local time.
Select only one option for redelivery. Choices usually include next business day attempt, scheduled date within the next five calendar days, or hold at a nearby service location. Marking multiple boxes may delay processing.
If authorizing release without direct handoff, clearly describe the drop-off point, such as “behind planter on right side of porch” or “leasing office reception desk.” Avoid general descriptions that could lead to misplacement.
For pickup at a staffed counter, choose a location within reasonable distance and verify its operating hours. Bring a government-issued photo ID that matches the recipient name. Most facilities hold parcels for 5 to 7 days before returning them to the sender.
Place the completed notice in a visible, weather-protected spot before 8:00 AM on the selected date so the courier can collect it during the next stop.
