Ahh, yes you can. UPS MyChoice for Business was launched in late July of this year.

I tried to add my shop address and it wouldn’t let me saying my choice is not for commercial addresses.

Looks like I can request a hold for pick up to my local UPS CC while it's still in Zhengzhou, China. I might wait a couple of days before I actually change delivery.
 
Mine just says ‘shipment reference is required’ have tried both mob number and order number -2 digits :(

Also got a pending charge for the phone + Apple care but now I seem to have a new separate one just for Apple care so it’s pending twice

I would to... It sucks to get the "delivery exception" and no date for a bit when you do it. I'm waiting a bit myself. Don't want the anxiety.
 
My 256 Silver Pro Max isn't popping up in UPS MyChoice yet, but I am getting tracking for "something" after using my order number (minus last 2 digits) as a reference...

Delivery date is accurate, but the weight doesn't seem right and the destination is definitely incorrect. No idea if this is actually my phone, but I'll wait and see.
 
I've got zero for tracking numbers, not for iPhone and not for Apple Watch, which I preordered on the 10th. For the iPhone, I got a iPhone 11 Pro Max, Midnight Green, 512GB.
 
So I caved. I had a silver 512 Pro Max on order with 9/27 to 10/1 delivery. Ended up canceling it and reordering gold for launch day delivery. My phones are in cases literally 100% of the time, silver is kind of a meh color anyway, so what the heck. :)

Except the camera notch will show the color now. And isn’t “Gold” really Pink-ish on these? No bad color choice on these things anyway.

I don't remember it happening with direct from apple orders in the past couple of years. you get a hit or miss on carrier ordered phones but those seem to be employees that break the rule and get the phone for themselves or their buddy....

Yes typically it’s been the carriers who let one slip through. UPS has them on lockdown.

Sorry but that is not heavy enough to be an iPhone 11/Pro/Max. They start at .50 KGS for this series. Maybe a watch or accessory?

That’s weird I find this whole process where everyone gets different results very confusing!
There are millions of iPhone preorders. Their computers along with the courier can’t process everything simultaneously. It takes time.

I’m irritated that there is so much movement on all these phones. I ordered at 8:06am as soon as the app let me. And nothing. No charge on my Apple Card for taxes, no tracking by ref number, no preparing for shipping and a 10/1-10/4 delivery date.
Patience ... it will get there eventually. Instant gratification can be postponed. More time to dream about your phone and it will extend the period of the novelty wearing off. You will still be excited about your phone when half of this group forgets they even have a new phone.

Not a watch or accessory, as I haven't ordered any. I used my iPhone order number as a reference, but I am aware that the weight seems too light.
 
I did my choice for Business since it’s going to my dad office but I signed up and doesn’t show tracking idk what gives ?
Since you could not find it by reference using your phone number or order number it is likely that the UPS label has not been created yet. Nothing will show until it is in the "UPS" system.

I found mine using my order number as well minus the last two digits on UPS as reference number. It arrives on 20 September and is currently in China. However, it says the destination is San Francisco which isn’t correct as I am in Chicago.
 
There’s no reason I should have that delivery date when I ordered 6 minutes after after it started and I was preordered. People ordering the exact same phone after me have earlier deliver dates.
You were ordering along with hundreds of thousands of people at that moment. The wait won’t kill you man. Calm yourself down before you blow a gasket. It’s just a phone. The world won’t stop if you have to wait for it.

Yeah I still can't get anything to show even if I make sure all of the information matches the phone order. But I also can't seem to get it to show under reference either. I'm not sure I'm doing that correctly though
