S:CRAFT Plantation Shutters’ Post

Monday got off to a great start, with same day courier services required from the Hull and Humber region to all parts of the UK Mainland. Not sure when I'll see some of my drivers again this week, given some of the remote places our customers have been sending us! But it doesn't matter where the goods are, or where they need go, here at Parcel Pal Ltd we offer national coverage from anywhere to anywhere at any time. Once the vans had all been organised, loaded and on the way, I was afforded an excellent opportunity to take up a long overdue one-to-one meeting. Had a superb morning with Samantha Waslin at the The Call Answering Company finding out about their services and VA options for businesses. Thanks once again to The Business Culture HEY leaders Tony and Michelle Bowler for bringing us together - it was a very insightful get together. Ironically, the phone kept ringing throughout - talk about learning on the job! But the meeting allowed us to learn so much more about what we each do. If like Sam, you'd like to know more about the same day courier work we do - and how we could help your business - get in touch via our website below: www.parcelpal.org The advice is free, the quotes we offer come without obligation and we provide ourselves on providing a first class, excellent customer service experience. You've tried the rest, so why not go with the best? #courier #courierservice #courierservices #couriercompany #sameday #samedaycourier #samedaydelivery #samedayshipping #delivery #shipping #express #expresslogistics #expressdelivery #expressshipping #timecritical #24hourservice #247service #delivery #deliveries #deliverysolutions #timecritical #timeddelivery #timeddeliveries #Hull #HullBusiness #connections #onetoone #coffee #network #networking #sme #localsme #supportlocal #supportlocalbusiness #supportlocalbusinesses

🚚 The Hidden Struggles of Couriers Ever wondered what couriers face daily? It's more than just delivering parcels. Let's dive into the most common challenges they encounter on their routes. First, traffic congestion is a major issue. In bustling cities like London, couriers often find themselves stuck in gridlocks, leading to delays and frustrated customers. According to a report by INRIX, London drivers lost an average of 227 hours to traffic in 2023. Imagine the impact on delivery schedules! 🕒 Next, there's the challenge of navigating complex delivery instructions. From unclear addresses to restricted access areas, couriers must be problem-solvers on the go. This can be particularly tricky in areas with new developments or temporary roadworks. 🏗️ Lastly, the physical demands of the job can't be overlooked. Couriers often handle heavy parcels, face adverse weather conditions, and work long hours. This can lead to fatigue and even injuries. Ensuring their well-being is crucial for maintaining a reliable delivery service. What other challenges do you think couriers face?

DTDC Courier & Cargo Ltd. DTDC Support I am highly disappointed with the handling of my courier (tracking number [7D109665778])  and the unprofessional behavior of your delivery team. Here's the timeline of events and issues I’ve faced: 📅 Friday: Received "Out for delivery" message, but no attempt was made. 📅 Saturday: Message claimed delivery failed due to "high volume," then I was asked to collect it from a shop 800m away. After waiting an hour, I was informed the courier wasn’t there. 📅 Monday: Repeated "Out for delivery" messages. Delivery person assured delivery but later rudely said, "Ab to na ho payega," before disconnecting. Status falsely updated as "AREA NON SERVICABLE." 📅 Tuesday, 10th Dec '24: False tracking status "Attempted, NANGAL" updated at 12:02 PM. By 7:49 PM, marked as RTO (Returned to Origin). This is not the first time such incidents have occurred. Your team regularly: ❌ Sends misleading "Out for delivery" updates. ❌ Forces customers to collect parcels from shops or offices 4 km away. ❌ Labels serviceable areas as "Non-Serviceable" arbitrarily. If my area is truly non-serviceable, why was the courier accepted in the first place, and why the messages were sent as "Courier out for delivery"? #DTDC #CustomerService #CourierComplaint #Accountability #DeliverOnPromises
