How Does One Send Freight From A Terminal Or Pick Up Freight From A Terminal? Turns Out, Pretty Ea

Your messenger service in Chicago deals with packages that go anywhere

, carrying anything. Occasionally those packages are parts of multiple shipments from many different places, and because we deal so often with other couriers who bring us those packages, we have to meet those fine folks in a terminal.

The terminal is the place where all courier and messenger services meet at least once a day to exchange packages, routes and delivery information to keep each other going. Whoever said business was cut throat never dealt with delivery people; we need to be generous with our assistance because we never know when we may need a favor from a courier who is closer to your route, your recipient or your planned delivery time.

So it behooves your messenger service in Chicago to keep on good terms with all our courier brothers, and part of that agreement includes delivery and pick up of freight in that terminal. Since we are already here much of the time, it is a simple process for us to send or receive freight, and for you to do the same.

If you want to send freight from a terminal, all you need do is arrange delivery with any courier service. You will be given a bill of lading with a lading number (a rustic term for loading). The company who ships your package has that number as well, and they pick up your package for you from the terminal and ship it right along to its destination. Very handy for packages that are too large for your local courier to handle, or an ultimate delivery that is way out of our way (such as an international one). And you do not lift a finger to make it all work. By the way, keep the receipt; very useful in case there is a claim for lost merchandise.

To receive freight from a terminal, you need the same lading number as well (this part is even easier). You bring the bill of lading to the terminal, to the place called the dock, where loading and unloading for a customer takes place. You present the bill to the friendly loading fellow; he gets your package and assists you with loading it. And that is all there is to that!

So you can see why the terminal is such a popular hangout for couriers; we can get it all done right here, and so can you!
