As an essential service, Sendle is open for business across Australia and the United States. We're working harder than ever to deliver parcels for our small business customers and we want to help you thrive.
You can find all of our delivery updates below for Australia and the US.
With so many people isolating at home and shopping online during COVID our parcel volumes are at record highs so there might be delays.
Rest assured, our delivery drivers are working extended hours to meet the demand and our customer happiness champions are moving as fast as they can to answer your inquiries.
We thank you for being so patient!
Here are a few ways we can all help speed things up:
- Use the Toolbox in your dashboard for instant support and parcel investigation.
- Pop into the Help Centre to search for your question (there’s a lot of great info in there!).
- We know it’s tempting, but sending your inquiry twice will only add to the queue.
- Help us carry extra parcels in our vans by using flat packaging or mailers and satchels where you can.
As an essential service we continue to follow the guidelines of governments and health authorities around the world. Your safety and that of our delivery drivers is a top priority.
Have peace of mind with our contactless delivery for both pickups and drop-offs. With contact-free delivery, you, the delivery driver and the customer won’t need to come into contact, touch a pen, or a scanning device.
To stay COVID-free, we ask everyone to follow these simple instructions:
- Don't shake hands or touch others
- Stay 2 metres (6 1/2 feet) away from other people
- Wash your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds
- Use a tissue to cover your nose and mouth when coughing or sneezing
- Dispose of tissues in a bin
- Wear a face mask to help prevent the spread
We'll continue to keep you updated as the situation changes.
