Our delivery services have remained highly efficient despite reports of many courier firms predicting Christmas chaos and already struggling to cope with the increased load.
We’ve increased our fleet by 16% and employed more staff within the operational departments so we can stay on top of everything from deliveries to order placements and general enquiries which are equally vital to ensure the smooth running of the company.
I’ve been in this business for 30 years so I have plenty experience in preparing the company for periods which may be challenging for everyone, so I’m confident that we can provide a reliable service for our customers.”
In addition to the delivery order increase, is the concern that oncoming severe winter conditions could prevent courier firms from delivering parcels in time for Christmas.
I think we all remember the heavy rounds of snowfall which affected the transport industry massively, we were almost ground to a halt due to road obstructions and closures.
Last year was a nightmare but Transport Scotland has learnt from their mistakes and are reportedly more organised for onslaughts of bad weather.
So far there has been snow fall in the North of Scotland but fortunately we haven’t been affected so business has remained steady with deliveries being made on time.
We’re adding a public service to our remit by sending Facebook and Twitter updates alerting motorists about what’s happening on Scotland’s major roads ahead of traffic updates.
