The FedEx Release Form is a practical tool designed to streamline the delivery process for individuals who may not be home to receive their packages. This form allows you to authorize FedEx to leave your shipment at a designated location, ensuring that you won’t miss out on your delivery. When filling out the form, you will need to provide essential details such as your tracking number, recipient name, and address. It's important to mark your preferred delivery location, whether that be your front door, back door, or another specified area. Remember, a valid signature is crucial for the delivery to take place, so you must sign the form and affix it to your front door before 8:00 AM on the day your package is scheduled to arrive. Each package requires a separate Release Authorization form, and if you choose to have a neighbor or building manager sign for your package, their address must be included as well. FedEx prioritizes safety and security, so deliveries are ultimately at the driver's discretion. By signing the form, you also release FedEx from any liability for loss or damage that may occur as a result of leaving the shipment at your request. This simple yet effective form can help ensure your package is delivered smoothly, even when you’re not around.
