Troubleshooting TCS Express Delivery Delays & Non-Delivery (NDR)

If your tracking status remains static on "Arrived at Hub" for over 24 hours, contact customer service with your CN for an immediate internal trace.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Why does my TCS tracking number show "No Record Found"?
If your package was booked recently, the local franchise may not have uploaded the batch data to the central server yet. Central servers sync batch scans between 7:00 PM and 9:00 PM daily. Re-check after 9:00 PM.
Can I pick up my parcel directly from the TCS Express Center?
Yes. If you prefer self-collection, call +92 21 111 123 456 with your CN number before the rider departs in the morning and request a "Hold for Pickup" at your nearest TCS branch.
What is the maximum weight limit for TCS Red Box shipping?
TCS Red Box comes in standardized sizes up to 25kg. For commercial cargo exceeding 25kg, TCS Overland Express provides discounted per-kilogram heavy freight rates.
How does TCS Cash on Delivery (COD) payment work?
For Daraz or social commerce COD parcels, riders accept exact cash upon doorstep handover and immediately update the digital handheld terminal to "Delivered". Always ask for an SMS delivery confirmation.
