Here’s all you need to know about express shipping and next-day delivery services, and how you can find yourself the best deal on the market.

What is express shipping and next day shipping?

Express shipping and next day shipping are essentially what they say on the tin, with a focus on getting the packages to the recipients quickly and safely. This shipping is often done by air couriers in order to ensure that products can get to their destination with minimum risk of late arrival due to problems like traffic or customs issues. That does mean that a lot of the time express shipping will cost you a little bit more, mostly because of the urgency with which everything needs to be completed at every step of the process. Although express shipping often comes at a higher cost than standard shipping, the peace of mind of the earlier delivery is often worth any higher costs that may arise.

The importance of express shipping

Fast shipping is now at the core of the vast majority of businesses. Whether you’re a retailer looking to ship goods out to customers as soon as feasibly possible, or you’re a more administrative company that needs replacement goods sent in order to keep your business running at maximum efficiency, you’ll need to get goods shipped in and quite often this will need to be at very short notice. The wrong provider could lead to incomplete deliveries and cause your organisation to have big issues going forward, so choosing a reliable courier is vital.

Bulk express shipping

Although express shipping is a great way forward for many companies, doing it in bulk can often accrue significant costs. Whether you’re an individual looking to send out a lot of gifts to family members this holiday season, or a company that’s selling products around the world, eventually the added costs of express shipping will grow and grow. You can often find opportunities to make big savings on bulk orders by finding a great tailored deal for your specific needs, which will save you a lot of money on your bulk express shipping. This means that you can go about your business without having to worry too much about the sheer costs of sending express items one by one without having properly compared couriers.

So who is express shipping for?

Express shipping can be for anyone. If you need to send products around the world at very short notice, using express shipping is ideal no matter what your personal situation is. For example, if you’ve purchased a last-minute gift for someone’s birthday on the other side of the country, it might help your cause if you can get the gift delivered on the day itself, rather than arriving a week late.

Next-day shipping can also be useful for small businesses that might need to get their goods sent both across the country and across the world. For any business to grow you need to effectively get your goods to customers across the world, and by expanding your customer base beyond that of your local area you open a whole new world of possibilities. This becomes a lot easier when you can provide your customers with what they want at a day’s notice, and keeps them coming back for more.

How can I get the best deals?

You can get the best courier deals around by comparing different couriers with Fast Courier. You can quickly compare courier quotes and send your packages across Australia and the rest of the world at express speeds, and at the price point that you need. By entering the address you’re sending the package from, the address you’re sending the package to, and a few bits of information about what you’re shipping, you can quickly and easily get a range of quotes and prices. You’ll know exactly what you’ll have to pay and how long it will taking, giving you the ultimate peace of mind in your shipping.

      "Hi
      Your concept is a good one
      Few small things ;
      1. I have an account but your system does not seem to recognize it when I open up website to order
      2. Quotes come up with two prices but only given an option for the more
      expensive one - why is that ?
      3. How do the prices offered compare to having a direct account with one if the providers
      Regards Ian"

    • 4-star

      - Kapil Robina, QLD

      This is only our first interaction with Fast courier. We have created an account now will try to use for further bookings to find out if we can get consistent service. So far the booking process was quite easy and the prices were very competitive. The only reason I have 4 start is because firstly we only had a single interaction with Fast courier and secondly there is always room for improvement. Such as discount to regular account holders and better customer service in case of an issue, which we have yet to experience. Thanks

    • 3.5-star

      - Mary Sydney, NSW

      The online booking was quick and easy to use, and clearly displayed the rates for various options. However although "pick up today" was offered online, the parcel wasn't actually picked up until the following day so missed the function it was intended for. But that said, pickup and delivery were eventually completed smoothly, and we received updates to confirm where things were up to, which was helpful. Would be happy to use the service again!

    • 5-star

      - Tai Tallebudgera Valley, QLD

      Any delivery driver that acknowledges my barking dog deserves positive feedback. Thank you for a fast, safe delivery of my order. And for patting my dog and just being friendly when my day was a little ordinary.

      "Remember prices will change all the time for the same box to same place. Select different days or wait a week and it maybe cheaper
      BUT NEVER USE TNT as they will always over charge you and Directors will come up with a new fee so their monthly bonuses increase."

      - Lorelle Spring Mountain, QLD

      "So the good news is my item got delivered within a decent timeframe. Customer service was very quick to respond and price was affordable.
      However, the parcel had to be rebooked twice for pick-up and only after sending an email to ask what was happening did the parcel get picked up. After the parcel got picked up, it disappeared from my account and I was not able to track it. Again, after an email to customer service, I was informed that it was being processed. My client received the parcel after about 5 days. I did not receive any notification of the delivery and as mentioned before, was not able to track the parcel the entire time so I was a worried if it got lost in transit.
      Overall, good service but needs better systemisation."
