Are you a person who is constantly sending things in the post and you need to make sure that your delivery gets to the intended location on time and preferably under budget? It can be stressful when you need to send something as a priority but the post office has fees that are either not suitable for the level of service required or you worry about them not delivering on time, even when it’s guaranteed special delivery, because we know it happens! Here are a few things to consider when choosing the right courier service for your needs.

Type Of Delivery

What exactly are you sending? Is it documents, a box, an envelope, passports, or a large package that needs the special care of a professional? Whatever you’re sending you want to be sure that it’s going to reach the destination on time and safely. But who to choose? This is where Shiply comes into play. They are an website which acts as a comparison site for you to compare local businesses who work in couriering and delivery to help you save time and money by comparing prices and services in a one stop shop. Perfect for both individuals and businesses, this will not only save you time scrolling through various companies websites, but also money. It’s a win-win!

Security and Speed

If you’re sending important documents like passports you need the company you’re using to be trustworthy, secure and reliable. Speed can be an important factor as well as if you’re on a schedule or you need something urgently to arrive at the location you’re sending it to, you can’t trust just anyone to do it for you. Picking the right courier is integral in this sense, so be sure the courier you choose to use is bonded, insured and certified to operate in your area. Likewise you want to be sure that the company will never leave packages unattended or throw them over a fence or the like if they are highly valuable documents or paperwork.

Reliability and Professionalism

The courier service you choose is essentially for a short time being the face of your business. If you’re sending something to a partner or client you want the delivery personnel to be professional and helpful as well as be able to take on the project and complete it as you require. Providing excellent customer service is also a must, and so vetting your potential courier company is integral to ensuring your delivery meets the needs and expectations of your client. Check in advance to see if they have any specific protocol to follow in terms of redelivery if the person on the receiving end isn’t available to take the delivery and what they will do to ensure the package arrives safely.

So if you’re looking for a courier service that has your needs in mind, consider using Shiply to vet and go through a number of service providers in your area to make sure you’re picking the best person or company for your individual needs.
