This article aims to provide information regarding the shipment levels and shipment carriers that are available for each country. A brief overview is given of the types of shipping levels available and their benefits.
Types of Shipping Levels
- Normal Shipping: This is the most cost-effective option, ideal for non-urgent deliveries. The trade-off is typically longer delivery times and less frequent updates on the shipment’s status.
- Tracked Shipping: Tracked shipping services provide customers with periodic updates on the status of their shipments. This option strikes a balance between cost and the peace of mind that comes from being able to monitor a package’s journey.
- Premium Shipping: For urgent deliveries, premium shipping offers the fastest delivery times. This service often includes features like same-day or next-day delivery, guaranteed delivery times, and comprehensive tracking.
In the table below, we provide a list of the available shipment carriers according to their shipment level and destination. In addition, the last mile carriers are provided in parentheses. The last mile carriers are responsible for bringing the packages to their final destination. The carriers listed below are an indication. When a carrier is not able to provide the service quality for that level, we might decide to ship with a different carrier.
