Solving FedEx Freight tracking issues

There are several ways to fix FedEx Freight tracking issues. Learn why you might not track your package, why it is not updating or moving, and how to solve it.

Why you can’t track your FedEx Freight package

Some common issues may keep you from tracking your FedEx Freight package. First, you may not have copied the tracking number precisely, so double-check this and try again. If this isn’t the tracking issue, other possible causes include:

FedEx Freight may not have collected your package yet. It can take time for distributors to tell FedEx they have an order for pickup.

For example, if you placed an order on Friday, the seller may not ship it until Monday. In this case, FedEx Freight tracking will not be immediately available.

Rarely the FedEx Freight tracking system has issues. These are unusual, and FedEx resolves them quickly.

If you think either reason is the case, wait a couple of business days and then check Circuit Package Tracker before contacting FedEx Freight Customer Support.

Why your FedEx tracking is not updating or moving 

FedEx tracking can stall for several reasons—the good news is that it’s not usually a cause for concern, and most issues are easy to resolve.

The first (and most likely) reason for the lack of progress on the route is after a FedEx courier collects your package.

FedEx Freight updates your package tracking status on arrival at and after leaving scheduled delivery hubs on its route. Sometimes you can experience a short delay between these points.

Rarely technical problems can also cause FedEx tracking to show an error.

If your delivery experiences any of these delays, wait for 24 hours and then contact FedEx Freight Customer Support for help.

FedEx Freight tracking status explained

FedEx packages go through many stages, from the starting address to your door. Each new step will show a different tracking status.

Pending

When FedEx Freight tracking states that your package is “pending,” FedEx has your package and is paused on the route. 

Why your FedEx Freight tracking may be pending

There are some common reasons why your FedEx Freight status is “pending.”

In most cases, FedEx has not yet collected your package from the sender or has many packages to scan during busy periods, such as the holidays.

Wait 48 hours before contacting FedEx Freight Customer Support for help if your package is still “pending.”.

In transit

“In transit” means your package has left a FedEx distribution center and is on its way. Your tracking status will say “in transit” until your package is out for delivery.

Your FedEx Freight package may pass through many centers on its journey and stay in transit on the tracking information page.
