As an essential service, Sendle is open for business.
At Sendle we are working harder than ever to deliver parcels for our small business customers across the United States and Australia during these turbulent times and we’re here to help your business thrive.
You can find all of our delivery updates below for Australia and the US.
This month Sendle has delivered more parcels than in the lead up to Black Friday and Christmas! Our delivery drivers are working extra hours, and our customer happiness champions are moving as fast as they can to answer your inquiries.
With more people shopping online and reduced flights, some customers are experiencing delivery delays during this time. Please know that we are doubling our efforts to help you, and 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 Center to search for your question (there’s a lot of good 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 are following the guidelines of governments and health authorities around the world, so 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 customer, and the delivery driver won’t need to come into contact, touch a pen, or a scanning device.
To keep small businesses, your customers, and our delivery drivers COVID-19 free, we ask that everyone follows these simple instructions:
- Not shaking hands or touching others
- Staying 2 metres (6 1/2 feet) away from other people
- Washing hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds
- Using a tissue to cover your nose and mouth when coughing or sneezing
- Disposing of tissues in a bin
We’ll continue to keep you updated as changes arise.
