5 Common Courier Mistakes To Avoid


No matter what type of business you run, package delivery is critical. Receiving your packages when promised is something that can really make or break a business, depending on the industry. This week’s Velocity Courier Service LLC blog discusses five common courier mistakes you should avoid to ensure your packages arrive on time.

That’s why we offer multiple delivery schedules for a wide range of businesses, including law firms, accounting firms, medical businesses, financial institutions, and more.

Read today’s blog post to learn which courier mistakes you should avoid and contact Velocity Courier Service LLC for delivery service in Dallas, Fort Worth & most of Texas today.

USING THE WRONG PACKAGING One of the number one mistakes we see here at Velocity Courier Service LLC is that our customers often use the wrong packaging. Many times, our customers throw their packages in the first box they see, regardless of how well the contents fit inside.

LACKING ATTENTION TO DETAIL When mailing packages, attention to detail is crucial. You should never assume that you can estimate the weight, size, package type, or costs. Instead, you should confirm these details before you ship your package off. If the weight you told the courier and the actual weight of the package are off, you’ll be charged for it. These extra costs can be easily avoided by preparing your package correctly while it’s still in your possession.

OVERESTIMATING TIME NEEDED TO DELIVER PACKAGE If you require delivery by a certain time, let’s say 4:00 pm, and you schedule the delivery for 11:00 am, you can actually end up increasing your costs by about 30-40%. Be sure to choose the pickup service that is right for the job.

UNCLEAR DELIVERY INSTRUCTIONS Have special delivery instructions that our team at Velocity Courier Service LLC needs to follow to successfully deliver your package? Be sure to tell us ahead of time so we can ensure secure and on-time delivery.
