What to Do If Your Cannabis Parcel Is Delayed

What to Do If Your Cannabis Parcel Is Delayed

A delayed parcel is stressful, but most delays resolve on their own within a few days. Before assuming the worst, here’s the order of steps worth going through.

Quick answer

If a parcel seems delayed, first check the tracking number directly on Canada Post’s site, allow a few extra business days for normal transit variance, then contact support with your order number if there’s been no movement for five or more business days.

Step one: check tracking directly

Frequently asked questions

How many days of no movement is considered delayed?

Around five or more business days without any tracking update is generally the point to reach out.

Will I get a replacement if my parcel is lost?

Yes, once Canada Post confirms a loss through their trace process, reputable retailers reship or refund the order.
