The 5-question checklist

1) How fast does it really need to arrive?

Paying for the fastest option only makes sense when timing is truly critical.

2) What is the value of the item?

Higher value items usually deserve stronger tracking and better packaging.

3) Do you need signature or proof of delivery?

If you are shipping for business, proof of delivery can prevent disputes.

4) Is the address complete and deliverable?

Unit number, postal code, recipient phone, and correct formatting reduce delays.

5) Is it fragile?

Fragile items need immobilization and padding. If it moves inside the box, fix it.
