Small parcel courier

Small parcel courier Switzerland: direct & overnight

A small parcel does not always need a parcel network. With a courier run, it is collected at a clear address. It then travels on the planned route to the destination.

In brief

Small parcel courier: when does it fit?

The word parcel does not determine acceptance. Size, weight and contents matter. The shipment must be safe to transport in a passenger car.

Close the box securely. Loose items should not move inside the parcel. Add clear labelling.

A small parcel should be securely closed and contain no loose parts. The address and contact should match the real handover point.

The shipment does not need to look like a standard parcel. What matters is that it is small, clean, safe and suitable for the vehicle. The parcel should be ready before the selected collection time.

Real situations

Real situations: Small parcel courier

These cases show when a small courier run can make sense. Actual acceptance always depends on route, contents and available time.

Business material

A compact box contains material for a customer. It is packed and labelled. A reachable person at the destination makes direct handover easier.

Small goods to a customer

A business needs to deliver small goods directly. The customer can receive them in person. A reachable person at the destination makes direct handover easier.

Parcel between offices

A small parcel travels from one office to a second site. The route is clearly defined. A reachable person at the destination makes direct handover easier.

Direct and overnight

Direct and overnight

Pickup and requested delivery must both fit within the same calendar day; otherwise choose an earlier pickup time or Overnight. With Overnight, requested delivery is exclusively on the immediately following calendar day. Only released time windows apply; storage across additional days is not offered.

Arrange a small parcel collection

Does your parcel need to go directly to an address? Prepare the box and arrange for someone to receive it.

Close the box Use a sturdy box. Seal it so nothing can fall out during handling.

Cushion the contents Fill empty spaces inside the box. Keep fragile items from knocking against each other.

Measure the parcel Measure and weigh the packed parcel. Include the box and cushioning.

Give the collection point State where the parcel will be ready. Add a short note if there are several entrances.

Plan the handover Tell the recipient to expect the parcel. A direct trip takes it to the destination without a parcel depot.
