Clique Logistics Couriers, Freight Shipping
Services in Australia
  • A freight forwarder is a company that operates to
    deliver goods or merchandise on behalf of other
    companies or individuals. It is engaged in the
    transportation of commercial goods, life-saving
    medicines and chemical treatments, fragile
    cargoes, machinery, important documents, and many
    other items. It's prompt, excellent service is a
    must, and delay is its worst enemy. If you are
    planning to tap the services of a International
    Freight Forwarders company in your business, you
    should carefully evaluate your prospects. Knowing
    their undesirable characteristics can help you to
    make an informed decision of what to choose. Here
    are some of them

1. Poor Vehicle Maintenance
  • As a delivery service provider, a International
    Freight Forwarders is expected to have its
    delivery vehicles in top shape all the time. This
    will enable the delivery personnel to bring the
    goods to their final destination at the earliest
    time possible.
  • Regular vehicle maintenance is a must for
    delivery service companies. It should maintain a
    team that works to ensure that all delivery and
    other vehicles are regularly checked and kept in
    good condition.

2. Unwillingness to carry fragile items.
  • Some forwarders are too afraid to assume
    responsibility for items that have a high
    potential for getting damaged. Being engaged in
    this service, they should formulate measures for
    the proper handling and protection of delicate
    items. They should provide cargo handling
    training to their personnel to improve their
    confidence and cargo handling techniques.

3. Poor Customer Service
  • Good customer service is one of the most
    important assets of a service provider. A freight
    forwarder should be able to treat its clients in
    a courteous and professional manner. Otherwise it
    will likely lag behind its competitors in revenue
    and performance.
  • Freight forwarding companies should train its
    staff to answer phones, give delivery updates,
    and provide other information in a professional
    and tactful way.

4. Pickup / Delivery Delays
  • This has something to do with professionalism. A
    staff that is disciplined to work in a
    professional manner is committed to follow an
    established schedule. Promptness is very
    important in the courier business. It can spell
    the difference in the success or failure of a
    transaction or a life-saving effort.

5. Delivery Staff Keeps Getting Lost
  • This sounds funny but it's its true. Many
    couriers are delayed in picking up or delivering
    items because they got lost along the way.
  • A courier is expected to be able to pick up or
    deliver items on time. It should employ delivery
    staff who are familiar with the place and can
    easily understand directions. For the delivery
    personnel to easily find the pick up or delivery
    points, it would be prudent for him ask the owner
    for proper directions. This will allow him to
    perform his job promptly and efficiently.
