You’ve just sold an item to someone who lives across the country—what comes next? Now is the time to figure out how you’re going to get the item from your location to the buyer’s location. This includes figuring out when it should be delivered, who will deliver it, and how to make sure the package gets to its intended destination.
Pick a Date and Time
You and the buyer will need to decide on a date and time that works best for the delivery. If you’re selling something through your company’s website, then the buyer might be able to choose their desired date and time on the website. If you’re selling something privately, then you’ll want to email, text, or call the buyer to make sure you know when they will be expecting their item to be delivered.
Choose a Cross-Country Delivery Company
Delivering the package yourself can be expensive, time-consuming, and frustrating, which is why it’s a good idea to work with a professional delivery company, instead. Look for companies that can provide cross-country delivery services in a timely and cost-effective manner. If you need to get the package to the buyer as soon as possible, then look for a company that offers same day delivery or next flight out services, so the package will arrive within a matter of hours.
Learn About Tracking Options
A great shipping company will also offer tracking options to help you keep track of your package throughout its journey. When you can track your item, you’ll be able to keep the buyer updated about where it is and when they can expect it to arrive.
