Loomis Express Tracking Number Example
If your Loomis tracking number is not working, check to see if you have entered it correctly, as you received it. If you have, check with the courier if they sent the correct number.
Otherwise, a trucking number that does not work indicates that the courier has not scanned the barcode, probably because the package has not left the sender. Sometimes the barcode cannot be scanned because it is damaged. If that is the case, you may notice the status is no longer updating.
It is also possible that your Loomis number is not working because it is fake and, therefore, invalid. This often is the work of a scammer who wants you to think you are receiving a package handled by Loomis.
Check with the Loomis website or customer support to find out why your tracking number is not working.
Loomis Express delivers Monday to Friday from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM. Ordinarily, Loomis Express delivery hours do not cover the weekend and public holidays. However, Loomis will deliver on Saturday at an extra charge.
