    *Note: These transit times are estimated averages based on historical data and do not represent guaranteed SLAs by the carrier.

    RTO & Failed Deliveries

    Return to Origin (RTO) is the biggest margin-killer for eCommerce brands. Here is how Xpressbees and Delhivery handle failed deliveries:

    Xpressbees RTO Protocol

    Generally attempts delivery up to 3 times before initiating an RTO process. Their Non-Delivery Report (NDR) dashboards often allow merchants to intervene and re-attempt with updated details.

    Delhivery RTO Protocol

    Typically offers up to 3 delivery attempts as well. Depending on the service region, on-ground agents frequently attempt to call the customer directly before marking the shipment as undeliverable.

    The Final Verdict

    Choose Xpressbees if:

    • You need extensive reach in remote Tier-3 and Tier-4 pincodes.
    • You want slightly cheaper volumetric weight pricing for heavy items.
    • You value a robust NDR management system to reduce RTOs.

    Choose Delhivery if:

    • You are shipping high-value items (like electronics) requiring high security.
    • You need guaranteed next-day air express delivery between metro cities.
    • You prioritize strict SLA adherence over finding the cheapest rate.
