ECD’s new service offerings
Due to the major changes in the proposed services and operational costs, ECD has introduced new parcels delivery models. The new service offerings will include:
1. Door-to-Door delivery
As the name suggests, door-to-door delivery involves the parcel being picked up from the customer’s door and thereafter will be delivered to the recipient’s door. This price for this service starts from R50, depending on the size of the parcel and the distance between the two locations.
Door-to-door service offers customers convenience as it is a simple method of delivery which guarantees that the parcel will make it from point A to point B with little to no issues due to a single point of contact. It is also a time saving method of delivery that requires minimum efforts from the customer’s side, they can simply book a delivery order using ECD’s web or mobile app and wait for the delivery driver to pick up their parcel. This delivery method eliminates any hassles as the parcel will be delivered straight to the recipient’s home or business location.
In addition to the above, ECD is also adopting the ECD Points involved delivery method by including stores and smart lockers as ECD pick up and drop off points.
ECD is partnering with various retail stores and implementing smartlockers in order to make the delivery process easier and more efficient for you as customers. This mode of delivery involves the customer dropping off or picking up his/her parcel at the nearest ECD partner store or smartlocker.
Two options exist, namely:
ECD Point to DOOR or DOOR to ECD Point delivery: Drop Off your parcel at the closest ECD point (either a partner store or smartlocker) and it will be delivered to the recipient’s door address (or visa versa). Prices start from R40, depending on size and distance.
ECD Point to ECD Point delivery: Drop Off your parcel at the closest ECD point and it will then be delivered to another ECD point. The price of this service start from R35.
Store involved delivery is beneficial as these stores exist in a wide range of locations, making them a convenient pick-up point for many customers (including individuals or businesses). Furthermore, this method of delivery saves costs due to the reduction or elimination of costly re-deliveries, and saves time for busy customers who are rarely at home and prefer to choose when to drop off or pick up their parcels following their packed and dynamic schedules.
