What Shipping Doesn't Provide Tracking? - Pumic - 10-24-2018
Did a couple Google searches to figure out which shipping doesn't come with a tracking number, but didn't find anything. I checked USPS, FedEx, and UPS but didn't find options for shipping with no tracking on their websites, although I'm fairly certain each carrier has them.

I think sometimes you can choose to not pick the tracking thing, where I live it costs extra.

It's always optional, but company's put it there so they can get it written off by taxes or insurance.

Realized it was just easier to tell them I went with the cheapest option from X carrier and it didn't include a tracking number. Thanks anyway mates!

You'll find a lot have this option, or something to that effect.
If not, there's always a way to avoid tracking- depending on the company, their terms and where you're located.

The company I'm currently SEing doesn't give prepaid shipping labels, or state anywhere that you are required to have a tracking number, so I told them I used the cheapest USPS option which didn't come with tracking. Let's see if they'll just give me the benefit of the doubt.

If they don't provide shipping labels nor tracking numbers and do not request to do so anywhere In their terms (Inclusive of nominated carriers), then you're free to use your choice of shipping.
I believe you'll be fine.

I personally love it when they don't give labels and have had good success so far. As no boxing is required I claim I've shipped the item over and they never get anything. So far it's worked for me.

Some companies won't "warranty" if there is no tracking and to tell you to go to your carrier.

Agree. I can't speak for all companies, hence my post Is generalized.
That's why every minute detail In their terms must be read. If there Is no mention of their warranty via non-tracking shipping, then It's fine to send It as such.
