Description (see ups.com for details)

Direct Delivery Only

Direct Delivery Only is a contract service that must be enabled in the Shipper Defaults and then selected on a per shipment basis at time of ship.

Ensures a package is delivered to the residential or commercial address provided by the sender. This service prevents recipients' packages from being redirected or rerouted when recipients are absent. This option applies to the Ship To address on the shipping label.  

Notes:

•'Direct Delivery Only' checkbox appears in Shipment Tab, only when 'UPS Direct Delivery Only' checkbox is enabled in UPS US - Shipper Defaults - Defaults Tab and vice versa.
