Woohoo! It’s nearly time for pickup. Here are a few simple steps to help you prepare your parcels for a seamless collection:
- Ensure that your shipments are well packed, so they arrive intact. Our awesome packaging guidelines have great advice on this.
- Print a clear and smudge-free barcode on your label (these have to be printed, and should not be hand-written!).
- If your packages are booked for pickup, have them ready for your pickup driver. They will appreciate your dutifulness.
Packages with different labels (for instance, USPS labels and Swift labels) will be picked up by different drivers, so keep them separate.
If you're dropping off your packages, you can do so at any post office or blue collection box near you, or leave them with your regular mail carrier. (Never drop a Swift package a a post office or blue collection box – Swift packages are always booked for pickup).
See? Easy. Now you’re a professional shipper!
