You may think that just comparing the fees of two shipping companies is enough to shortlist one for you but there’s more to it. You have to also look for a company that securely and safely transports your goods without any hassle.


There are a bundle of shipping companies out there who will promise you to deliver your parcel on time. But, then how do you trust them? Today shipping companies combine innovation, technology and fastest mode of transport to deliver your goods. There is an error-free system in place that decides your shipping fees and transports your materials efficiently. Follow these tips to find the best delivery app for you to transport your good from one place to another.


1. Price

When you download a shipping app, you must first compare the prices by downloading other apps as well. Some companies don’t reveal the fees to you, and you need to pay a very nominal charge to get the rates. It would help if you first enquired about the costs and then only shortlist the company. The price of your package is determined by its volume, the material content and its destination. You must weigh your options correctly as a cheaper shipping company could deliver your product late leaving you anxious and stressed. Every region has a different shipping rate, and you must cross-check these details before making a deal with any company.


2. The Trust Factor

How reliable is a shipping company when you want to send an expensive gadget from one corner of the world to another? The best package delivery apps give you a live tracking of the shipment so that you are regularly updated. You must trust a shipping company that provides you with this service and resolves your queries online. To get more credibility, look for online reviews and customer testimonials. If other people have used this service before, you will get a better insight into their service by looking for reviews.


3. Delivery Times

After you have agreed on the shipping fee cost, you must also ask about their delivery system and timings. Some shipping companies are not flexible with the delivery timings, and it could end up in a mess. The shipping company must adjust its delivery timings according to your comfort and convenience. For example, if you are at work from 9 am to 6 pm, the package should be delivered accordingly. You must get all the information before sending off your parcel to your friend.


4. Recovery Cost

Most shipping companies are pretty good with their delivery, and there are very cases of tampering and damage to the package. However, when you are choosing a shipping company, you must ensure that they have a damage policy in place in case of an emergency. For example, if the package is lost or has been tampered with before reaching its destination, you must be compensated accordingly.
