This is so true! Found a great article from ParcelIndustry.com, on how even an intact, non damaged box can be denied for claim. From the article: "It’s a story repeated all too often: A shipper’s employee gives a package to a carrier, the goods arrive damaged but inside an intact box, a claim is filed, but it’s denied because of “improper or insufficient packaging.” Here are some easy steps to

Ahh, my favorite subject, yours to I presume? Dimensional weight, when you get charged the 30lb rate for a 2lb package, welcome to Dimensional weight shipping. A 2lb package ships from Florida to California costs $7.00, a 30lb package $27.92. A big difference, huh? The package in question is a 2lb product, packaged in a box measuring 22"x22"x12", due to it's "large" size, it calculates to a

That is the question I found myself asking when reading an article this morning. Here is a small exerpt frm the article: "UPS's tracking log had my goods breaking the laws of physics. It showed an "arrival scan" in Newark, NJ, at 6:27 a.m. But three minutes later, at 6:30 a.m., my box was listed as being in Louisville, KY. The two cities are 642 miles apart."

What, you didnt know?! It is true! At least it is for UPS, and FedEx. This goes for Ground, and Air packages. There are a few exceptions to this rule. Don't look for refunds for late packages a couple of weeks around the Christmas holidays and in inclement weather you would not get reimbersed for late packages. There are companies that will tell you which packages are late and even file the

Will a 5 day delivery week affect you or your business? From the USPS Five Day Delivery website: "The Postal Service plans to implement five-day delivery in fiscal year 2011. Implementation is contingent on Congress not enacting legislation to prevent that change in service. In addition, the Postal Service must ask the Postal Regulatory Commission to review its plans and issue a non-binding

I just read that UPS has announced a new service, Smart Pickup. Let me first say that we ship 99% of our packages via FedEx Ground, but we do keep our UPS Daily Pick up account for customers that want to ship an order using their own UPS account#. So everyday UPS comes by to see if we have any packages for them. Most days we do not, like I said before, we ship 99% of our packages via FedEx Ground

Do you use RSS to monitor News, or websites that you follow? Did you know that you can track packages using RSS also? No longer do you need to track your package over and over to see where your package is at that moment. let RSS feeds do the work for you. When your package has a new scan, your RSS feed gets notified, and you see it in your feed reader. It's easy: Goto: http://

Here is a great article on how the size of a package can cost you a pretty big chunk of change, so be carful when shipping large packages. In our  industry, the packaging industry, a lot of our products are light but bulky and we run into this issue often. Sometimes it cannot be avoided, but it is better to know this upfront, then get hit later on with additional fees. The author of the below

Do you get tired of asking your customers, is that a Visa, Mastercard, Amex, or Discover Card? You may or may not already know, but you can tell the type of card by the first number of the credit card. All Credit Cards starting with a 3 are AMEX or Diner's Club, 4 is Visa, 5 is Mastercard, and 6 is Discover. So stop asking is that a ............ card, now you know what it is! :) That is just the

Yes, you heard me right! Google does Searches, Email, Maps, etc. But did you know Google could also track your packages for you? Have you ever ordered something online, received a tracking number, but did not know if it was a UPS, FedEx, USPS or DHL tracking number?  No problem for Google! Goto Google.com or, if you use the Google toolbar it is even easier. Just punch the tracking number into

Here's another great tip! Do you ship time sensitive packages? Does your customer need it, like now!?  How would you ship it if they needed it in 2 days? From the linked article: "...let’s say that you want to ship a package on Monday and get it to your customer by Wednesday. Which service would you use? Many would choose a service like UPS 2nd Day Air or FedEx 2 Day service. Others might use

Looks like in 2007 UPS, FEDEX Ground, and the USPS will change the way packages are measured and billed. All three carriers are implementing a new (new for ground packages) dimensional weight system. How will this affect sellers? It will greatly affect those sellers that ship larger, lighter items. Lets look at an example. Lets take a package that weighs 3 lbs and measures 20x20x12. (By UPS,
