A notice #2021logistics outage# hit the screen again. The form indicates: Starting from mid-January, logistics operations in all provinces will be suspended! Many merchants and manufacturers forwarded it, urging everyone to hurry up and stock up!
For example, Inner Mongolia, Tibet, Jilin and other places will suspend operations on January 5, Xinjiang, Gansu, Ningxia and other places will suspend operations on January 10, Tianjin, Beijing and other places will suspend operations on January 13, Shanghai, Shandong, Zhejiang, Hubei, Jiangxi and other places will suspend operations on January 18. Moreover, there is more than one version of similar tables, but except for slight changes in time, the contents are similar.
But in fact, the logistics suspension notice is fake!
Internet Rumors
The 2021 Spring Festival holiday is from February 11 to February 17. Why was the logistics stopped as early as January? Are online forms reliable?
The reporter called the official customer service numbers of many express delivery companies such as EMS, SF Express, STO, etc. The customer service staff said that they have not received any notification of logistics suspension. The customer service staff of STO Express specifically emphasized that STO has not issued a unified national logistics policy during the Spring Festival in 2021. Please refer to the policies of various local outlets.
Recently, reporters visited three express delivery collection points in Shanghai. At the collection point on Weihai Road, Nanjing West Road Street, Jing’an District, Shanghai, a SF Express guy said that there were some people during the Spring Festival holiday. On duty, there will be no downtime, but the speed may be slower than usual.
Staff at the Shimen 1st Road Post Office of China Post said that the holiday notice for next year has not yet been issued, but it is expected to be closed from the first to the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, and there will be people on duty at other times.
The staff of STO Express Shanghai Jing’an Golden Eagle Plaza Company said that there will always be people on duty in February next year, and express delivery can be sent, but the receipt time is expected to be longer. It is recommended to send the express delivery before February. Send it away.
In fact, there are no unified regulations for express company holidays or transportation line suspensions. Each express company decides on its own based on the situation, and there is no national version of the timetable.
Every January and December, the “National Logistics Outage Timetable” will be widely circulated on the Internet. The Shanghai Rumor Refuting Platform has repeatedly refuted relevant rumors. The so-called “schedule” that has been widely circulated this year is also pieced together based on rumors over the years, and is completely inconsistent with the 2021 Spring Festival holiday.
Although the news of logistics suspension is false, it is true to advise manufacturers and merchants to stock up in advance.
Recently, environmental protection inspections have been strict, raw materials have increased sharply, and manufacturers in some areas have also fallen into a situation of restricting electricity consumption and production. High market prices, which had finally fallen back, have risen again. </p
