HOW DOES THE COURIER CHARGES WORK?

At ZDI, we strive to provide efficient and reliable delivery services for all our valued customers. It is important to note that courier charges apply to ALL orders without exception. However, we have implemented a streamlined system that automatically books collections and manages all returns, ensuring a hassle-free experience for you.

When it comes to the cost of delivery, it will be dependent on the specific products you order. For local Gauteng deliveries, we offer a competitive rate of R150.00 for 1 carton, while nationwide deliveries are priced at R165.00 for 1 carton. And the good news is, the more you order, the more you save! For each additional carton, you will be charged a reasonable fee ranging from R150.00 to R165.00.

Although we acknowledge the allure of offering free delivery, we have opted for a more pragmatic approach. Our strategic decision focuses on maintaining competitive pricing by keeping our margins as low as possible. This allows us to offer you the best possible prices without compromising on quality. However, please be assured that our delivery services are top-notch, ensuring that your orders reach you in a timely manner.

It is important to note that once your order is collected by the courier, we cannot be held liable for any damage or loss of goods during transit. However, for added peace of mind, we do offer transport insurance for values under R20,000. This insurance can be requested and added to your order at a minimal cost of 6% of the item value. This way, you can protect your investment and minimize any potential risks.

To ensure that your orders are processed efficiently and delivered promptly, our system automatically logs the collection/delivery once your order is completed. This helps to prevent any unnecessary delays and ensures that you receive your products in a timely manner.

 

WHY CAN'T I COLLECT MY ORDER?

As a wholesaler in PPE and Uniforms, we have made the strategic decision to transition away from a traditional walk-in shop model. Instead, we have embraced the convenience and efficiency of an automatic ordering and delivery system.

If you would like to collect your order, you are welcome to collect at main Courier Guy Depot 37 Malta Road, Kya Sands, after your order was processed. This collection option will only be approved for all orders above the value of R10 000.00.
