Could someone tell me how a delivery company can pick two boxes up from a location;

Pack them onto a boat together - notification
Boat round the world together - notification
Custom together - notification
Lorry to warehouse together - notification
Van / Man packed into area together - notification

... all notifications to three decimal places of god damn time.

But to actually deliver the pair, 'Between 7am and 7pm'...

AND ONLY DELIVER ONE fkING BOX(of two).

My toddler delivers more reliably.

I had 2 deliveries from Apple that did an overland route to Shanghai, then airfreight to Osaka Japan, Incheon Korea, several of the 'stans, Dubai, Istanbul, Germany, East Midlands Airport, then flown to Stansted.

After that I collected one from the depot and the other was stolen by the driver.

Even Amazon struggles. They offer to group deliveries but because items are located at different warehouses around the country or even some of their EU depots, they send items singly with different couriers.

I think considering the vast volumes of boxes they move, the odd hiccup now and then is to be expected.

There is a guy on YouTube who puts AirTags in packages and posts them around the world

It’s truly bonkers the route stuff takes when he tracks them
