What can I do with the BRTcode?

With the BRTcode you can follow your delivery in an easy, quick and independent way on brt.it website. ou will be able to change the shipping address (if authorized by the sender), change the date and time slot of delivery, choose the delivery to a BRT-fermopoint, request a pick-up at the branch, provide all the details to manage the goods on hold. Remember that not all shipments are the same, for this reason the features may not be available for your shipment.

   

Where do I find my BRTcode?

You will find your BRTcode in the SMS or in the e-mails that you received for shipment custody, or on the notice left by the courier after the delivery attempt.

What is track and tracing?

It is the easiest way to follow the status of your shipment: enter the home page of brt.it and insert your BRTcode in the box. Alternatively, by clicking the link in the e-mail and in the SMS about shipment custody you can directly access the monitoring and modification of your shipment.

How can I check if my shipment has been delivered?

If you are a subscribing customer, go to your reserved area and enter your BRT customer code. After entering the data required, you can view the delivery status and the waybill with the recipient's signature (P.O.D. Image). If you are the recipient of your shipment, go to the home page in the "where is my shipment" section and enter your BRTcode.

Can I change the delivery address?

Go to the website to track and modify your shipment. Enter the BRTcode and the security code and check if you can change the delivery address. Such a change must be authorised by the sender: if you cannot change the address from the BRT website, directly contact the sender of your shipment.

What happens if there's a delivery but I'm not home?

The courier will leave a coupon with the details of the shipment, in the mailbox, and on the next business day he will make a new delivery attempt. If the sender has communicated his/her data, you will receive an e-mail or an SMS with the details of the new delivery. If you cannot be at home that day, enter the BRTcode in the "Where is my shipment" box on the home page and change the address (if you are authorised by the sender), the delivery date, choose a BRT-fermopoint or the branch pick-up.

Which are your delivery times?
