Hangzhou Sorting Centre
The Hangzhou Sorting Centre is a specialised logistics facility where large numbers of parcels and shipments arrive and are then classified into categories, regions or destinations using automated systems and manual work by staff.
This process helps to efficiently and quickly distribute goods and parcels from Aliexpress for onward delivery to the final recipients.
Hangzhou is mentioned along with these statuses in order tracking on AliExpress:
- “Processing at sorting centre“ – the order has been successfully delivered to the warehouse and is now undergoing all the necessary procedures;
- “Left the sorting centre“ – the processing has been completed, and the parcel has already left the warehouse;
- “Dispatch not accepted by sorting centre” – there were problems with receiving the order at the warehouse;
- “Delayed processing in sorting centre“ – the parcel sorting procedure could not be completed within the expected timeframe.
If there are problems with the delivery of your order, you should first contact the seller to clarify the reasons for the lengthy processing of the order in the warehouse.
In case the shop representative ignores the message, then it is necessary to open a dispute to get back the money paid.
