Okay, I have a show that is supposed to be delivered today. One box is out for delivery. The other box is stuck in SLC. I have told the host, but what do I do if it doesn't get here by tomorrow? Does UPS deliver on Sundays? I know some of this stuff was for Christmas presents.

Another question for individual orders that paid the extra shipping charges - what do I do if, because of weather, it doesn't get there by tomorrow?:eek:
 
Yikes - with the wacky weather in Colorado I wonder how they're dealing with delivery delays??

Colorado, Utah, Washington...they were all hit pretty hard. Some of my individual orders are going to Colorado! They finally opened the airport. My brother was supposed to fly into CO today. I'll have to check and see if he made it.
 
was Ut hit hard I talked to my mom this AM and she said the storm that hit Elko was on the way there. my parents were supposed to fly out to Cnacun yesterday and missed thier flight though due to Denver being shut down
 
Hi there! I'm sorry to hear that your show delivery is running into some issues. If the second box doesn't arrive in time for your show, don't worry! UPS does deliver on Sundays, so there's a chance it could still make it. If not, you can always reach out to the host and explain the situation. As for individual orders with extra shipping charges, I would recommend reaching out to UPS to see if there are any delays due to weather and keep your customers updated. We want to make sure they receive their orders as soon as possible. Let me know if you need any further assistance. Best of luck with your show!
