Abstract: An order placement system comprises an order placement module, a first transfer module, a second transfer module, and a detection module. The order placement module prompts a first customer from a geographical location to place an order for a consignment. The first transfer module is controlled by the processor and in communication with the order placement module to send instructions to transfer the ordered consignment to a delivery hub. The second transfer module sends instructions to the delivery hub when the first customer cancels the ordered consignment, and the cancelled consignment is returned to the delivery hub. The detection module identifies a second customer in the same geographical location who ordered the same consignment that was cancelled by the first customer. The second transfer module provides instructions to the delivery hub to deliver the same consignment to the second customer, where a reverse shipment of the cancelled consignment is avoided.
