What to do if FedEx misses your pickup window

What to do when your FedEx sample pickup is late and how to find an alternative drop-off location.

Written by Libby

FedEx may arrive at any point during your scheduled pickup window. If the window hasn’t ended, keep your packaged sample ready for collection.

If the window has recently ended, the driver may still arrive. Pickups can occasionally run 30–60 minutes late. If your sample still hasn’t been collected after that time, contact Rythm customer support for help with next steps.

Dropping off your sample instead

If you’re able to drop off your sample, use the FedEx location finder to find a nearby location that accepts FedEx packages.

Choose a staffed location where possible, such as a participating:

  • FedEx Office Print & Ship Center

  • Walgreens

  • Dollar General

  • Office Depot

Check the location’s hours and pickup schedule before visiting. A staffed location is preferred over a drop box. If no staffed location is available, an indoor FedEx drop box is the next option. Avoid outdoor drop boxes whenever possible.
