Bose Corporation works with all major carriers, including United Parcel Service and the United States Postal Service, to be sure products are delivered safely.

In some cases, a signature is required before a package can be left at your location. The delivery driver decides if a signature is needed, based on location, weather conditions and other factors. If you receive a notice stating delivery was attempted while you were out, please follow its instructions regarding an alternative delivery date or package pick-up.
