Can couriers stop an order?
The other big couriers do, at least, stop an order in its tracks if a banned item is identified – but only if the wording matches. Filling in a form and saying you are sending trainers, for instance, would not flag up a shoe ban, and the prohibition of liquids, creams and gel imposed by most couriers may catch out anyone specifying a gift set of toiletries as the contents of their package.

UPS and DPD ban “personal effects”. Hermes says it will not offer compensation for “composite items of any description” and “items which can be exchanged by themselves, or with any other item, for money or goods or services”.

Couriers reserve the right to refuse to carry such items or, if they discover the contents of a parcel are illegal or unsafe, to destroy them.
