July 30, 2007 - NEIGHBORHOOD POSTAL CENTERS ARE AN APPEALING ALTERNATIVE TO THE POST OFFICE FOR CONSUMERS AND BUSINESSES
SENDING SMALL PACKAGES
Consumers and businesses sending small packages are increasingly bypassing the Post Office for a more appealing alternative. They are relying on thousands of independent retail mail and parcel centers throughout the United States that offer a wider choice of services and products, as well as better customer service. They also often find better shipping rates, especially after the recent postal rate hike,
at neighborhood retail mail and parcel centers, such as Neighborhood Parcel at 553 Main St Tewksbury. MA 01876.
“Our customers know we often offer lower rates for small packages shipped using alternative shipping services,” said Neighborhood Postal, who’s Neighborhood Parcel, is part of the Neighborhood Postal Centers (NPC) network of more than 2,200 mail and parcel shipping locations throughout the United States, all of them independently-owned small businesses. Rates are based on the weight of the package, the distance it is being shipped, as well as the speed of shipment.
“Whether you’re sending one package, or a business shipping many small packages, you’ll likely find much more competitive rates and more choices at your Neighborhood Postal Center than at the Post Office. In addition, NPC member retail mail and parcel centers offer a range of services and products, including packing and boxes, provided by knowledgeable, friendly store owners and staff,” said Mr. Bechat He said the expert help and advice available at Neighborhood Parcel can solve any packing and shipping problems.
“Large, heavy or awkwardly-shaped items can be professionally packed for shipping at our Neighborhood Postal Centers, often at rates that beat the Post Office, which cannot match our customer service. For example, with summer here, whether you’re shipping a heavy camp trunk off to your children’s summer camp or sending them a box of grandma’s cookies, the shipping help you need is available my Neighborhood Postal Center location,” said Mr.Bechat. “The trunk will arrive on time, and the cookies will be expertly packed so your kids will receive them without a crumb missing.”
Ebay sellers are increasingly going to Neighborhood Parcel to ship their items, he said. “And merchandise bought on ebay—or from anywhere—can be shipped to my store and held for pick up, if no one can be home to receive it.”
“Actually, any package can be shipped to another Neighborhood Postal Center to be held for pickup there if the recipient is never at home during the day to receive it,” he said.
Similarly, businesses are using Neighborhood Parcel more than ever for packing and shipping expertise, a greater range of services, choice of carriers and faster service, many times at lower costs than the Post Office,” said Mr.Bechat
