What is Reconsignment?

Reconsignment in logistics is the process of changing the destination of a shipment after it has already been shipped. This generally involves changing the recipient that the shipment is being sent to, the delivery address, or both.  

 

Reconsignment may take place when a shipment is delivered to the wrong address, when a shipment is sent to the wrong recipient, or when a customer changes their mind about where their shipment should be sent.
