Getting the best from your parcel delivery service

I wrote this blog earlier today:

When time is money, the parcel networks work swiftly and work on volume.

You may only send one package a year, but if it doesn’t get delivered, it can be a total nightmare!
It may also cost you twice, and you need to check you are insured for the right amount, as if you are under-insured, you may not be able to make a successful claim.The Essex courier and parcel delivery company, Jul 2008

The entire article is about what you can do to stop losing parcels in the parcel networks.

Very few parcel networks are achieving our current 100% success rate, it takes a lot of hard work and effort, we not only don't charge fuel surcharges, we take the time to advise our customers how to package an item.

Next time you think cheaper is better, take into account what it will cost you to resend if it doesn't get there, or what a refund will cost.

Warm regards
