AVOIDING PORCH PIRATES
A
About 26 million Americans or roughly eight percent of the population has had a package stolen from their porch, it’s important to take the proper steps to make sure your Christmas gifts are safe and you are protected. When you ship your Christmas presents try to make sure your recipient will be home on the day your packages are estimated to arrive. If your recipient lives in an apartment complex, ask if they have a doorman that receives packages. FedEx and UPS will often collect a signature from the doorman or someone at the apartment office upon delivery. Sending packages to a business address is one of the easiest ways to assure your packages are handed to someone at the delivery address and not left outside. Not only will you receive a free signature on commercial deliveries, many times you will get a small discount on your shipping. Pak Mail offers insurance, email tracking updates and options for getting packages picked up at carrier office locations close to your recipient’s address to help our customers assure smooth delivery.Come in with your Christmas presents and let us help you make your holiday shipping easier than your holiday shopping!
