For the second time Woody's has shipped my package to the wrong zip code...I'll have to suffer until Monday unless I can figure out how to get to UPS's hub. Of course, UPS themselves have given me nothing but inaccurate info -- and now I don't really believe a word they say. Have you ever had to chase a package down in this way? ANY insight/advice/tips would be greatly appreciated.
How wrong was the zip code? If it's at least in your city, UPS will be more than happy to put a hold on it at your hub rather than have it floating around out there. I always have my package sent directly to the local UPS hub and held for me to pick up. One time the pharmacy sent it to a cross between the billing address and the shipping address but UPS figured it out and held it at the hub anyway. Another time I found that the package was being sent to the wrong address, and wrong zip code for that matter, (my home instead of the hub) so I called them early, told them it was going to the wrong address and they had it held for me at the hub without having to go through that "first delivery attempt" deal. So I'd say that in my experience, UPS does a pretty good job. But if in your case Woody's sent it to a very wrong address, don't blame UPS for not being able to straighten it out right away. After all, it's just as big a hassle for them as they have to reroute the package from who knows where to get it to you.
