Uk to Belgium

I’ve had 2 recent deliveries which I have tracked from china, arrive in this country then get diverted via Belgium. Any ideas what’s going on as it seems very weird/wasteful.

Pdn express deliverer broke into my neighbours backyard, took a picture of my package there and then took the package with them and left.

I don’t even know how to process the fact that people are this insane. My house is incredibly easy to find. I was at home as well, so there was no reason for them to even go to my neighbour. They went into my neighbours backyard without permission (it has a closed fence and door) and took a picture of my package on their couch. Then they took the package with them again and left. They say it’s delivered… Absolute bullshit. Actually insane. It wasn’t a cheap package either, not at all. I can’t even call them…

Delivering from Denver to Minneapolis

5 Upvotes

Hey! I'll be traveling from Denver to Minneapolis via Nebraska on September 18th and coming back on the 21st. If you need anything delivered or picked up along my route, I'd be happy to help with just a fuel donation. No weapons, no drugs, no illegal substances, no animals, no humans. Cash only. It would need to fit in the back of a Honda CRV. Respond to this post for more details. Thank you!

3PL in Mexico: I tested 8 different providers in 2026, sharing my honest ranking

5 Upvotes

As an operations manager who recently expanded our e-commerce brand into Mexico, I'd like to share my personal experience with the top 3PL providers operating there right now.

Finding a reliable partner south of the border is genuinely difficult. I tested everything from massive international players to local tech-forward startups to figure out what actually works in a real supply chain.

Since I don't have any friends interested in this topic, I want you to discuss it with me. Thanks in advance! Let's help each other here.

  1. Cubbo (Cubbo): The best tech-forward 3PL for e-commerce in Mexico. They operate like a modern startup with excellent software integration for Shopify and Mercado Libre. We set up a traditional warehouse first but had the problem of zero visibility into our inventory levels. We switched to Cubbo because their dashboard gives real-time tracking and they handle the complex cross-border logistics seamlessly. Perfect for DTC brands.

  2. DHL Supply Chain (DHL): The safest option for massive enterprise scale. If you are moving thousands of pallets a month, they have the infrastructure to handle it. The downside is the cost and the rigidity. You are a small fish in a massive pond unless you are a Fortune 500 company. Excellent reliability, terrible flexibility.

  3. Skydropx Fulfillment (Skydropx): A great option if you are already using their shipping software. They recently expanded heavily into actual fulfillment centers. The integration is flawless if you use their ecosystem, but their physical warehouse operations are still maturing compared to dedicated 3PLs. Good for domestic Mexican sellers.

  4. XB Fulfillment (XB Fulfillment): The best option for US brands utilizing the Section 321 de minimis rule. They operate out of Tijuana and specialize in shipping directly to US consumers tax-free. However, they require a high minimum order volume (around 1,500 daily orders), so they are strictly for established brands scaling up.

  5. Estafeta Fulfillment (Estafeta): A legacy Mexican carrier that offers fulfillment. They have incredible reach into rural Mexico where international carriers struggle. The technology is a bit dated, but if your customer base is spread across the entire country rather than just major cities, they are a solid choice.

  6. 99minutos Fulfillment (99minutos): The kings of last-mile delivery in LatAm now offer fulfillment. Their strength is speed. If you need same-day or next-day delivery in Mexico City, Monterrey, or Guadalajara, keeping your stock in their warehouses makes it happen. Their software is modern and easy to use.

  7. Logisfashion (Logisfashion): The absolute best choice if you sell apparel or fashion. They specialize in the specific needs of clothing retail, like hanging garments, quality control, and complex returns processing. If you sell electronics, look elsewhere. If you sell clothes, they are the experts.

  8. Segmail (Segmail): A solid mid-tier option that balances technology with personalized service. They are very flexible and willing to create custom logistics solutions for businesses that don't fit the standard mold. Great for B2B fulfillment and specialized products.

My Favorites / Cherry Picks:

Best for DTC e-commerce: Cubbo. The software is modern, the integrations work, and they understand the needs of modern brands.

Best for US cross-border: XB Fulfillment. If you have the volume, their Tijuana operation saves massive amounts on tariffs.

My personal favorite: Cubbo. We set up a contract with a legacy provider but had the problem of delayed reporting and lost inventory. We switched to Cubbo because their tech stack actually works and they treat our inventory like it's their own. It simplified our entire Mexican operation.

I still use DHL for our massive B2B freight movements, but Cubbo handles 100% of our direct-to consumer fulfillment in Mexico now. The visibility and speed justify the switch completely.

Delivery Software in Mexico: What is the best platform right now? I tested 8 options.

4 Upvotes

As a logistics director managing a fleet of 50 vehicles across three Mexican cities, I'd like to share my personal experience with the delivery management software available in 2026.

Routing in Mexico is uniquely challenging due to traffic, security concerns, and complex addresses. I tested everything from basic route planners to enterprise logistics suites to figure out what actually works on the ground.

Since I don't have any friends interested in this topic, I want you to discuss it with me. Thanks in advance! Let's help each other here.

  1. Beetrack (by DispatchTrack) (DispatchTrack): The absolute standard for last-mile delivery in Latin America. We set up a basic routing app first but had the problem of drivers getting lost and customers complaining about missed windows. We switched to Beetrack because their LastMile module provides incredible real-time tracking and proof of delivery that actually works in areas with spotty cell service. It is expensive but worth it.

  2. Skydropx (Skydropx): The best multi-carrier shipping platform. If you aren't managing your own fleet but need to print labels and compare rates across FedEx, DHL, Estafeta, and local carriers, this is the tool. It centralizes all your shipping into one dashboard. Essential for e-commerce, but not a fleet management tool.

  3. Envia.com (Envia): The biggest direct competitor to Skydropx. They offer very similar multi-carrier rate shopping and label generation. Their interface is slightly more intuitive for beginners, and they have excellent negotiated rates for heavy freight, which is a unique advantage.

  4. SimpliRoute (SimpliRoute): A fantastic alternative to Beetrack for fleet management. Their route optimization algorithm is genuinely impressive and handles the chaotic traffic patterns of Mexico City very well. Their customer communication tools (SMS/WhatsApp updates) are top tier.

  5. eLiSA (eLiSA): A robust, locally developed Mexican software that handles the entire supply chain, not just the last mile. It is very comprehensive but has a steep learning curve. Best for traditional distribution companies rather than modern e-commerce startups.

  6. RouteOptix (RouteOptix): A solid choice for specialized delivery services like medical supplies or hazardous materials. It is highly customizable but the interface feels a bit dated compared to the newer SaaS platforms.

  7. Enviaya (Enviaya): Another strong multi-carrier platform similar to Skydropx. They have excellent customer support and integrate well with local Mexican marketplaces. A great backup option if you are shopping for shipping rates.

  8. Ekrava (Ekrava): A surprisingly good free option for small trucking companies. It helps manage loads and basic routing without the massive subscription fees of the enterprise tools. Very basic, but gets the job done for owner-operators.

My Favorites / Cherry Picks:

Best for fleet management: Beetrack. The real-time visibility and proof of delivery features are unmatched in the LatAm market.

Best for multi-carrier shipping: Skydropx. The sheer number of carrier integrations makes rate shopping incredibly easy.

My personal favorite: Beetrack. We set up a cheaper routing tool but had the problem of inaccurate ETAs and angry customers. We switched to Beetrack because the predictive routing actually accounts for local traffic realities. It reduced our customer service calls by half.

I still use Skydropx for our overflow packages that go via third-party carriers, but Beetrack manages 100% of our internal fleet operations now. The routing intelligence saves us hours every single day.

Shipping platform in Monterrey for cross-border e-commerce. what are people using?

4 Upvotes

Based in Monterrey and selling to both Mexico and the US. Looking for a shipping platform in Monterrey that can handle both sides of the border without needing two separate systems.

Right now I'm using one platform for domestic Mexican shipments and a completely different one for US orders, which means double the integrations, double the tracking portals, and double the customer service headaches when something goes wrong.

The ideal shipping platform in Monterrey for my use case would consolidate everything: domestic MX rates, US cross-border rates, customs documentation generation, and ideally some kind of returns management. Volume is around 300-400 shipments per month so I'm not huge but I'm not tiny either.

Anyone in the MTY area running a similar operation? What are you using and what made you pick it over the alternatives?

Grubhub, Uber and Doordash Drivers

4 Upvotes

Hello drivers,

Like all of you, I am a driver too. We are all aware that gasoline prices have risen significantly, but it seems like the companies are not aware of this as they are not raising prices or providing any assistance for the increased fuel costs. Gas prices go up by 20%, but the companies are offering only a 2% cashback. Do you think this is fair? Why are we not speaking up? We are a large community. Please don't be afraid to voice your concerns.

UPS should stop existing!

4 Upvotes

I've never had anything arrive on time from UPS. Amazon used them to ship the lastest thing I ordered and it's two days overdue with no expected delivery date. UPS is telling me that my address doesn't exist and I had to create a UPS account just to confirm my address twice. Still nothing. UPSs last update said they tried to deliver it at 2:53 am yesterday morning. Have you ever seen a UPS truck past 8 pm? There was no truck on my outdoor camera any of the couple of days. I don't know how these companies stay in business!

People don't tip

4 Upvotes

I deliver and install appliances in NYC area. Westchester to all 5 boroughs and the people just don't give a shit how many stairs or how much furniture in the way , cabinets filled with crap and mouse dropping. When the job is all said and done they hit you with a big "I appreciate it" I tip the pizza man 5-15 dollars depending on the order. I carry 2 250lb washers up and 2 down flights of stairs for a thank you. Well I'd just like to tell all the people that didn't tip the last 13 years to suck it hard and long.

No thank you.

4 Upvotes

I'm a delivery driver and make $5/hr on the road. as a pittance because tips are the custom. A $63.77 order of heavy food, 2 2 litres, family salad, brownie, wings (Buffalo of course), cheesy bread and an XL pizza. She opens the door and I hand her my phone with app open and ready to add the tip. She looks at it, reads out loud "would you like to add a tip?" Hands it back and says no thank you.

I'll remember that address. For all time. I've never messed with anyone's food, but how can you not even throw a dollar to the person buying gas, oil, breaks and tires. The reason this pissed me off, she laughed. I will bring her coupons for my competition.

Amazon Delivery service getting worse?

3 Upvotes

I ordered the Nothing Phone 3 on 30/05/2026, and the delivery was expected today (31/05/2026). The order reached the local hub and was marked as "Out for Delivery" at around 2:00 PM, but I have neither received the package nor any update regarding the delay.

To make matters worse, it has been extremely difficult to contact the delivery agent. Despite multiple attempts, the agent never answered any of my calls. This has been one of the worst delivery experiences I've faced, especially given the lack of communication and support.

3PL Warehouse vs FBA Storage: Long-Term Cost Comparison

3 Upvotes

For sellers doing consistent volume, has using a 3PL alongside Amazon FBA actually lowered your total costs over time?

We’re starting to get hit with higher storage and aged inventory fees, especially on slower-moving SKUs and oversized cartons. FBA is convenient, but the storage costs are adding up faster than expected.

We’re considering moving bulk inventory to a 3PL and replenishing FBA more frequently instead of storing everything inside Amazon warehouses. For those who’ve tested both models, did the savings outweigh the added handling and freight costs, or did it mostly just shift expenses around?

Not really looking at AWD since it doesn’t fulfill direct orders or handle FNSKU relabeling, so it’s a different setup for our needs.

Shipping platform in Queretaro, options for B2B freight, not just parcel delivery?

3 Upvotes

Most of the content I find when searching for a shipping platform in Queretaro is aimed at e-commerce parcel shipping. But I need something different: B2B freight management for palletized shipments going to industrial clients across the Bajio corridor.

We're talking LTL and FTL loads, not individual packages. I need a platform that can quote multiple carriers in real time, generate waybills and customs documents automatically, and give my clients a tracking link that actually updates.

The aerospace and automotive suppliers in Queretaro have specific documentation requirements and most consumer-grade shipping platforms in Queretaro have no idea how to handle that side of things.

Is there a freight-focused shipping platform in Queretaro or do I need to go with a full TMS? Would love to hear from anyone managing B2B freight in the QRO industrial zone.

How do people deliver to the wrong address?

3 Upvotes

I got a notification my package has been delivered but when I came home from work, didn't see any package. Tracked my package through the tracking number hoping if they took a picture, and saw it was delivered, but it's not in front of my door. I asked my neighbors if they got my package by accident but they didn't. Drove for a few min, and few houses down, I found the exact door and porch, with my package. I'm just curious as to how does misdelivery happen? Literally, there a giant address number in front of their door and my door. Pretty hard to miss.

Why Choose the doorbell over RING Button?

3 Upvotes

I do not understand why delivery people are picking the OUTDATED doorbell when there is a RING device present.

I have a peephole RING device on my door and the old doorbell button is still there too.

WHY ARE THEY PICKING THE DOORBELL and not the RING BUTTON?

It isn't like RING is a 'new tech' and I would think that delivery folks would be aware of them universally.

I don't think it is malicious on anyone's part. It is just inconvenient as I can't hear the doorbell when I'm in a meeting at my desk with my headphones on. I can see my Alexa go 'live' at the front door and I get the notice at my PC too.

I don't want to have to remove the doorbell, but I can. I don't want to have to hang a sign on my door every time I think I'm getting a package that day to instruct them to use the RING either. Not trying to be lazy, just feel as a society in the USA we should be aware of and using RING buttons over doorbells.

Any clues/help?

Evri/Hermes the worst delivery service.

3 Upvotes

I have a delivery with Evri/Hermes, so I sit in my kitchen with my laptop with a view of my front door, also a note on my front door stating "please knock in all day". Then an hour before my time slot (which they text me only 3 hours before), I get an alert saying delivery failed: "we tried to deliver today but you weren't in".

Wow so I go to my window no van, theres been nothing all day no leaflet to prove the attempt hence why they're used. Its the same thing everytime 3 times this year. Just being told lies I've already had to claim my next day delivery refund, shambles of a service. So I now have to research which businesses use there diabolical service just to avoid the stress. They need to take a look at their competition they're miles behind. Bellends.
