Logistics software company Parcelport’s Auckland-based online courier booking portal allows SMEs to book a courier pickup and drop-off in approximately 15 seconds, thus saving a lot of time and money. Businesses can choose from multiple courier companies they work with, calculate costs, print tickets, and track and trace couriers using one account.

Through the Parcelport system, businesses can send the store, website or Trademe orders etc to multiple courier companies such as Posthaste, Castle Parcels, NOW Couriers and Pace Couriers etc.  They can get courier prices from these companies, print their courier tickets, book courier pickups, track and trace items and order their satchels within the Parcelport App. Courier Post services is available via the Parcelport retail network

NOW Couriers provides four pickup and delivery run cycles per day, so if an item is picked up during the first cycle, it can achieve same day delivery by the fourth cycle if it is within 250km from Auckland. However NOW Couriers only have branches in Auckland, so therefore it can only pickup from Auckland addresses. 

Post Haste is a nationwide carrier which offers pickups from 360 cities and towns in New Zealand and delivers nationwide. They have three pickup and delivery run cycles per day. 

If cost is a concern, Castle Parcels is a good alternative. Castle Parcels are one of the cheap courier services available. However, they don't provide overnight express service between islands and they only provide two pickup and delivery cycle runs per day. Castle Parcels is available to Auckland, Christchurch and Wellington customers only

Pace Couriers is an urgent courier service. They can provide under one hour (30 minutes), door-to-door delivery service across town and service every 1 hour, 2 hours and 3 hours services. Pace is available in major cities of New Zealand

Courier Post is a premium courier service, they provide nationwide coverage, offers pickups from 360 cities and towns in New Zealand and delivers nationwide as well as delivering to P.O. Boxes. They provide four pickup and delivery run cycles per day. Courier Post services is available via the Parcelport retail network.

Parcelport says businesses rely on support services that make their lives easier, so they can focus on what is most important to them. By outsourcing delivery needs to a courier service instead of taking on that added responsibility, SMEs do not have to worry about goods reaching customers on time.
