A fuel surcharge is a way of adjusting the amount paid to move shipments (parcels) by taking into account significant variation in fuel prices, compared to historical levels. Don’t worry, it’s nothing out of the ordinary and most carriers and shippers participate in a fuel surcharge program of some kind.

Cutting to the chase, if you know the dimensions of your parcel then just put them in the very short quote form and that will give you a list of services that can handle your large package. The parcels booked via our Courier Quotes System have to have their volumetric weight calculated. This establishes a value that all courier companies use to determine the ‘bulkiness’ of a parcel and hence set prices. A very small item that weighs 25kg may not cost the same to ship as a 5kg parcel. Until you add your requirements into our Courier Quotes Form we cannot give you an idea if your parcel is too heavy to go through our parcel courier service or it may travel in a different mode other than Air Cargo. As you can understand, we can only give indicative weight limits. If you’re looking to send parcels that are 1kg, 2kg, 3kg, even 5kg and 10kg you should be fine. Even parcels that are 12kg, 15kg and heavy items such as boxes of books at 20kg should, generally, be no problem. Individual items approaching 25kg and over 30kg would need special handling. Simply complete the courier quotes form with the dimensions and we’ll be able to give you the cheapest prices and a list of suitable services.

Well it depends on the service purchased…

The types of sms/email notifications that you receive depends on what service has been purchased by the sender while booking the parcel at the Origin City. Some of our services offer a two-hour delivery window. If you do have a two-hour window you will be notified by text and/or email on the delivery day.
