Their tracking tool is said to be one of the best available. However, customers encounter confusing updates while tracking, e.g., \u201cdestination scan.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The UPS destination scan update is a notification that your package has arrived at the local UPS facility<\/strong>. This local UPS facility will be responsible for the final delivery of your package.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Did you come across this UPS update? Want to know how long it will take until your package arrives after receiving this update? Then, read on to get your answers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What does the UPS update \u201cdestination scan\u201d mean?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As I mentioned, this update implies your package has arrived at the local UPS facility. This facility will be in charge of the final phase of the delivery, which is taking the package to its final destination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How long after this update will you receive your package?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The good news is that the UPS \u201cdestination scan\u201d update signifies that your package is very close. It must only be sorted and loaded onto a vehicle for final delivery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most of the time, customers receive their package the same day after coming across this update. But it could also arrive the following day if;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The final destination is far from the UPS facility<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The package arrives at the UPS facility after all trucks for that day have been loaded already<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, if you encounter this update, you should expect your package within the next 48 hours. However, if you receive this update on a Friday, it may arrive the following week (except the customer paid for weekend delivery initially).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why has this update been stuck for a long time?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Although it is not planned, some factors can lead to delays even after coming across this update. They include the following;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Bad weather condition<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Inclement weather conditions are not controllable, even for the UPS. Weather conditions like snowstorms, hurricanes, heavy downpours, etc. These are common inclement weather conditions that affect the delivery process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Incorrect information<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Even after customers encounter this update, incorrect details might be a stumbling block. Damaged labels or incorrect addresses are the most common reasons for this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When UPS cannot determine a package&#8217;s final destination, it causes delays. The package will have to remain in the facility until the address is identified, else it will have to be returned to the sender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. High number of deliveries<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes, the number of deliveries increases, especially during festive or holiday periods. And when there are limited hands on deck, it will affect the delivery process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A delay could be because UPS has a truckload of packages to be delivered. And once the driver cannot finish his or her deliveries for the day, he or she will have to return them to the UPS facility, causing delays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What if this update remains for an unusually long time?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Most of these issues are addressed shortly, so having patience is the best move.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ideally, you should receive your package 48 hours after this update. However, if this update remains for more than 4 working days, you may need to take further action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best move is to contact the local UPS hub or facility and talk to a representative about your package. Hopefully, the representative should be able to shed more light on the current status of your package.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can you pick up a UPS package if the update says \u201cdestination scan\u201d?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>No, you can\u2019t<\/strong>. Since the package is already close and should be delivered soon, you cannot pick it up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The only way to pick up a UPS package from the facility is if the UPS &#8220;will call&#8221; service was used while the package was still in transit to that facility. You can see this article on <a href=\"https:\/\/threaller.com\/can-you-pick-up-a-ups-package-early\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">how to pick up a UPS package early<\/a> for more insight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">FAQs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What update comes after a UPS destination scan update?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Usually, a follow-up update should come as \u201c<strong>out for delivery<\/strong>\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Does UPS scan packages before delivering?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Yes, they do<\/strong>. Packages are scanned at various points in the UPS delivery infrastructure. This is to update customers on the status of their packages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The UPS tracking tool happens to be a very effective tool for customers. You simply get an update depicting the current status of your package. The update \u201cdestination scan\u201d is one update that happens to be confusing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It implies that your package has arrived at the local UPS facility. There, it will be sorted onto a vehicle heading to your address. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After seeing this update, you should receive your package within 48 hours. But if this update is unusually long, contacting UPS might be the best move.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I hope you found this article helpful.
