What happens if my package is lost in transit?
If your APMEX Logistics package has not delivered to APMEX on or within one business day of the estimated delivery date, contact an APMEX representative. We’ll work directly with the carrier to begin a claim. A drop-off receipt for each package is required to start this process.
Lost-in-transit claims typically take 10–15 business days from the estimated delivery date to resolve. If the package is confirmed lost, you will receive the insured amount for that shipment.
If you used another carrier outside APMEX Logistics, please contact that carrier directly with your tracking information and also notify APMEX if the package is confirmed lost or significantly delayed.
What happens if my package is damaged in transit or the contents are missing?
APMEX records video evidence of all packages upon delivery, including any visible damage. If your package has a shortage or appears tampered with, this video evidence may be used to support a claim.
If you followed APMEX Logistics packing instructions, an APMEX claims representative will update you after we submit the claim with the carrier. Concealed-shortage claims typically take 10–15 business days from delivery to resolve. If tampering is confirmed, you will receive the insured amount for the missing contents. If the carrier determines there was no tampering, coverage may not apply.
If you used another carrier outside APMEX Logistics and your package arrives damaged, an APMEX representative will contact you to help resolve the issue, and our delivery video can still assist in the claim.
Do you have an internal security team that monitors all freight activity from origin to destination?
Can you provide video surveillance of my package arriving at APMEX and being processed, if needed?
