Current Courier Conditions

 

Shipping through a large national shipping or parcel company will provide you with a tracking number, enabling you to track the progress of your package. However, you may have noticed the tracking information is not always up to date. Often, the status of the package isn’t updated until it’s already in the recipient’s hands.

The same service is available with independent courier companies as well. As they are generally smaller and aren’t faced with unmanageable quantities of packages per day, their tracking systems are almost always accurate. Another benefit of these independent courier companies is their customer service. Their business is built on it, so if you don’t believe your tracking status is up-to-date, simply call their customer service department.

Whether shipping a parcel across town or the country, gain the peace of mind and confidence offered by accurate shipping tracking offered by a smaller independent Winnipeg courier company. Lost packages, late deliveries, high prices and unreliability result in lost time and money.

If you run a business or are an individual who regularly is indeed of a shipping service provider, consider the local courier company the next time you get ready to ship something out.

In Winnipeg, there are a number of courier companies that offer delivery services. It's important to take the time when reviewing and selecting your Winnipeg courier company. Your and your company's reputation may depend on the performance of your delivery company.

1. Length of Service - How long has the company been around? Is it a fly-by-night operation or a long-standing reputable organization?

2. Process & Technology - How does the company manage demand? To ensure accuracy and timeliness, look for a company that has integrated technology solutions. An even stronger asset is the ability to custom tailor this software your business needs.

3. Online Ordering - Multitasking is an essential skill in today's workforce. Having an online ordering system will provide the option to schedule deliveries in advance, track order delivery/history all the while managing your day-to-day activities.

4. Staffing - Your parcels and deliveries may contain sensitive information. Look for an organization that is bonded and fully insured. The best option is a company that has uniformed professional drivers with security photo I.D.

So when you set out to choose a Winnipeg courier company, do remember to take a look at the experience of the company. Since this is a competitive market, take a little time to find out the most reliable company out there. Only then will you get the assurance that your packages will be delivered no matter what happens.

From the team at Sierra Courier, we are wishing you and yours all the best during this holiday season and into the new year.

As we quickly come into the holiday season, the rush begins. The rush for gift shopping, grocery shopping, decorating and more. During this time of year, planning becomes one of the key ingredients in our lives. We plan with our family and friends on who's going to who's house and when and most importantly what they will be bringing.

Businesses are planning for the last part of the year. For those lucky enough to have time off during the holiday season, the time crunch is on. As you're planning your tasks and deadlines, be sure to include your delivery needs in your list.

Between the weather considerations and the increase in delivery requirements, it's important to plan ahead with your courier needs. When possible, plan your deliveries in advance. There is a hectic delivery schedule and delivery schedules may be affected. Reduce your pre-holiday stress and allow more time in your delivery schedule.
