If the second delivery attempt also fails, a note will be left giving you all the information in order for you to contact the carrier and find a convenient solution to get the parcel. The parcel will remain at the carrier facilities for 10 business days; if no instruction is received from you within this time frame, the parcel will then be returned to sender.
