Shipping Insurance and Claims
All packages are insured by Route at no additional cost! If your package is lost, damaged, or stolen, you can file a claim with Route.
It is Important To File Your Claim Before Specific Deadlines:
Damaged: Within 30 days from the date the package was marked "delivered".
Lost (domestic): No sooner than 7 days after the scheduled delivery date and must be filed within 30 days from the last tracking update.
Lost (international): No sooner than 20 days after the scheduled delivery date and must be filed within 30 days from the last tracking update.
Stolen: Claims for packages marked as “delivered” must be filed within 30 days of the delivery. Route requires a 5-day wait-to-file period for stolen orders as packages are sometimes prematurely marked as "delivered" but do often show up.
For more information, refer to Route Policy Summary. For claims, refer to your order confirmation email, use the Route app or file a claim.
