Quick Summary
EasyParcel offers two main parcel handover options: Pickup and Drop-off.
With Pickup, a courier collects your parcel directly from your specified pickup address at the scheduled pickup time. This can be a convenient option if you prefer not to travel to a courier hub or store.
With Drop-off, you bring your parcel to a designated courier store or hub and hand it over yourself. This can be useful if you are not available at the pickup address or prefer to drop off your parcel at a convenient location.
The available handover options depend on the courier and your shipment details. You can check the available services when getting a quote on EasyParcel.
