A courier service is a service that allows someone to send a parcel or consignment from one location to another. They can be booked and paid for online.
Senders have the option to have their parcels collected by a courier or drop their parcel off at a nearby location to be picked up later by the courier.
What are courier services useful for?
Courier services are known for their superior speed and tracking capabilities when compared with national mailing services.
Courier services are particularly useful for people that sell products online and need a shipping solution for sending multiple parcels. This can range from online marketplace sellers, such as eBay, Etsy and Amazon, to established national and international online businesses.
Many large-scale ecommerce businesses will arrange to have a dedicated courier for their deliveries. By arranging a contract with a courier, businesses can get bulk discounts.
