How to book a direct delivery for time-critical documents
Clear steps to book a direct delivery in Switzerland: choose a delivery window, prioritise the shipment and use phone coordination for time-critical documents.
Quick answer
Book the direct delivery online or by phone, select a specific delivery window and state the priority and contact numbers. This ensures your time-critical documents reach the recipient in Switzerland as quickly and reliably as possible.
When to choose a direct delivery
Choose a direct delivery when documents must travel straight from sender to recipient without transfer points. Typical cases: contracts with deadlines, court or notary papers, travel replacement documents. A direct courier avoids delays common in pooled same-day services.
Step 1: Prepare your documents
Use a sturdy envelope or flat box. Clearly label the recipient address and include phone numbers for sender and recipient. Add handover notes (for example, named contact in Zurich, Bern or Geneva). Keep ID ready if the delivery requires a signature.
Step 2: Book – online or by phone
Use the online form for fast bookings if you can provide all details. Call dispatch for very urgent shipments. Phone booking lets you confirm pickup time, delivery window and priority immediately. Provide pickup address, recipient address and the deadline.
Step 3: Choose a delivery window and priority
Pick a specific delivery window (e.g. delivery by 10:00) instead of a wide timeframe. Mark the shipment as ‘urgent’ or ‘direct’ if it must arrive before a fixed time. Clear windows help the courier plan the route and reduce waiting time.
Step 4: Coordinate by phone and confirm
Call dispatch when the package is ready. Reconfirm pickup time and access instructions. Give a phone number where sender or recipient can be reached immediately. Ask for an SMS or email confirmation with pickup time and expected delivery.
Practical handover tips
Notify the recipient in advance. Agree whether the courier will require a signature or deliver to a named person. Keep documents accessible in case the courier needs to verify details at pickup or delivery. For restricted access buildings, supply entry codes or contact persons.
