Courier services are the specialized delivery services that are helpful in sending the packages and parcels locally and internationally. It helps in smooth running of the business and carries wide range of products ranging from the small documents to the large size parcels. There are many largest courier companies in India like FedEx, TNT, DHL, DTDC etc which offer best and efficient courier services to its clients by offering safe and fast delivery of goods.
But the size limit should be followed prior to opt for delivery of the parcels. As per India Government rules Packages up to 70Kgs of weight can be imported to India and in case of exporting there is no such limit to export the goods globally. But some courier companies only accept 30kgs to export from India. Incase if parcel weighs more than 30 Kgs then the customers are requested to split it to more parcels to avoid problems by the customs officers. Customers must check the volumetric weight of the parcel which is a size measurement performed by carriers to determine the bulkiness of the item. This is used as the actual weight of the item and FedEx and CityLink courier companies uses Length x width x depth/6000 and DHL do the same but divided by 5000 in place of 6000. Actual weight and the volumetric weight many differ sometimes but the prices are charged for the heavier weight.
Even if you don’t know the exact weight and dimensions of the courier, you can do booking with approximate weight and once the exact weight is calculated by the company, customers are charged with the exact weight and informed about it. Incase if you need any assistance related to the issues or services offered by the company, Kindly call to the Customer Support Team to solve your problem.
