The courier also has to pick it up at your place. Here is some advice to make almost SURE that your shipment will be picked up during the day<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-82e4b234\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><strong>Book your shipment preferably between 9.am and 1.pm<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-67c44f4c\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n\n<p>Why? Simply because in the event of an unforeseen problem (which can happen to a pickup truck on the road), the driver has time to contact you to inform you and arrange another moment with you.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-ee65bc38\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><strong><strong>Check where you are<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-ae890e8e\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n\n<p>If you are close to a big Swiss city, the carriers will give you more time to book, for example until 6.pm. However, if you are in a more remote place, the limit time to book may be 2.pm. When you are doing a price test on Expedismart, you can see the limit time at which you can book.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-66777df0\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><strong><strong>Give him as much information as you can<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-d7fc011d\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n\n<p>Remember that the carriers are in a hurry, clients ask them to be there very quickly. Remember to give them all possible information while booking. Front door code, floor number, phone number. The goal is to facilitate his job and to avoid that he goes away without your mail or your parcel.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-6a6499c0\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><strong><strong>Give him a flexible time range<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-12e8eb1c\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n\n<p>Two hours, that is the minimum amount of time that you must foresee so that the pickup is validated by the carrier while booking. If you are there all day long, do not hesitate to give a longer time range, but we recommend a \u201cclosing time\u201d of maximum one hour before the end of the limit time.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-66269bc8\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n\n<p><strong>NB: carriers often have a break between 1.pm and 3.pm.
