Deliveries are made by Swiss Post or a partner delivery service. In the Customer’s absence, the package will generally be left at the Customer’s door. The Customer is informed that they have the option, particularly via the online services or app of Swiss Post (when Swiss Post is the designated carrier), to manage their delivery preferences and designate a specific drop-off location (e.g., garage, shed, with a neighbor, etc.). The choice and security of this alternative drop-off location are the responsibility of the Customer.

The Customer can track their package on the day of delivery using Swiss Post’s services.
