Planning guidance
Booking checklist for same day courier in Melton
Use this checklist when requesting same day courier for Melton. The listed location service profile is Same Day; this is practical planning guidance based on the verified coverage data, not proof of previous jobs or a guarantee of a route, driver, vehicle or time slot.
Before collection
- Confirm the collection address in Melton (3337) and provide the destination address and postcode.
- Describe the freight, number of pieces, dimensions and total weight; note palletised, fragile or high-value items.
- Share the requested collection date and timing. Dispatch confirms an estimate for the booking rather than a guaranteed slot.
- Flag opening hours, site access, loading area, dock or forklift availability, and any tail-lift or pallet-jack requirement.
- For Metro Melbourne planning, give the exact street address and postcode so dispatch can check the local collection area and vehicle availability.
- For same day, state the latest acceptable arrival and whether a return leg to Melbourne or another listed area is needed; feasibility is checked first.
Before delivery
- Provide the receiver name, phone number, business hours and any site reference or booking requirement.
- Keep the receiving area and an authorised contact ready for the confirmed arrival estimate.
- If a signature or other handover instruction is needed, ask dispatch to confirm whether it can be arranged before booking.
