Notes:
If you try to request a delivery service that doesn't meet the allowed service time slots, the carrier generates a label in any case. Paack will then contact the recipient of the shipment to agree a more appropriate delivery time slot.
Paack manages all time slots in UTC, hence when you send a shipment request in a different time zone, you may will get an adjusted time printed on the label. E.g. You set up delivery time slot from 9:00am to 1:00pm (CEST time zone), you will get a label where the displayed time will be 7:00 am, corresponding to the start time you set, expressed in UCT time.
For the Pick-up time slot, we suggest to set the ones you have agreed with the carrier.
