“It got lost in the mail.”
A popular saying, but it comes from lived experience for most people. Everyone has been there. You’ve waited for a package which never comes or sent out a birthday card only to discover it never made it to its destination.
There are some things in life which are too important to find out they got lost in the mail. Especially if you run a business.
This is where a logistical provider service or courier service can help.
Keep reading and learn the three top reasons why you should entrust your important documents, parcels, or whatever to a courier.
1. For All Your Last Minute Needs
The USPS and other carriers such as FedEx and UPS run on a strict schedule. If you miss their daily deadline or pick up for the day, then you’ll have to wait until the next day.
This is not true with a logistics provider service.
Do you need to post something Sunday night in order to have it someone’s office the next morning? A courier can come pick up the document and have it arrive safely and securely the next morning. Most courier services work around the clock, seven days a week to ensure an optimal customer experience.
It’s their job to deliver your item in a timely manner. Their business is run on the goodwill of people like you who need their item somewhere quickly and securely. They want to deliver your package on time as much as you do too.
2. Heavy Items? Choose a Logistical Provider Service
Courier rates tend to be based on distance traveled rather than the size of the item. In the end, you’ll end up saving a great deal of money by choosing a courier service to transport your large, fragile item rather than going through a more traditional carrier.
3. The Safest Way to Travel
Perhaps time or size aren’t crucial factors for you. However, ensuring your parcel’s arrival (and in one piece) is of paramount importance. Here are a few ways couriers ensure safety during travel:
- Offer packaging services to ensure fragile items are kept intact
- Make use of containers which protect against weather where appropriate or necessary
- Most will provide you with insurance information and background checks as proof of reliability
- Ability to track shipments as they move
- Signature of recipient upon delivery is often required
