Carriers

There are several shipping service levels that carriers can provide for orders. While different carriers might use different terms for these levels, Shippit organises them into these categories, based on the delivery speed and service level:

  • Standard: regular shipments with an estimated delivery time of 3-5 business days
  • Express: faster shipments, typically delivered the next day after the order is placed
  • Priority: same-day deliveries, often used for urgent or time-sensitive shipments
  • Click and collect: orders that customers pick up from a designated location, such as a retail store
  • On-demand: similar to priority orders, but with a focus on immediate fulfilment, usually within a few hours.

This table shows the different carriers, with their reference string, and the service levels available. For more information on each service level, see the service levels section.

For a comprehensive list of which carriers provide which services, see the carrier matrix on the Shippit website.

Review your rate cards with your Shippit account manager, or ask your Shippit sales representative for a pricing breakdown of the available priority services.
