Do You Know What You are Delivering?
Filed Under Courier World
They says the UK is ten years behind America, so how long before this happens here? or does it already?
Police spokesman Atunaisa Sokomuri said drug dealers had found a new means of transporting their stash.
He said when police raided the homes, they found that parcels were all packed and ready to be sent through local courier companies to the Northern Division.
He said the 44 parcels confiscated from the vehicle were hidden there to be taken by a courier company.
“The courier companies are not aware of what is sent through their services and so we are investigating this case,” he said.
As a courier it is essential you know what you are delivering, and that you can legally deliver. Certain items cannot be delivered.
- Hazardous materials / Biotech waste
- Other items that are similarly dangerous
- Live animals cannot be shipped via a courier delivery service.
- Deceased animals are bio-harzadous and can be shipped by specially trained companies
- Illegal drugs
There are other items too, so check with the customer first before you commit yourself to delivery. If in doubt, don’t take the booking.
