Tip Of The Day: Ship Your Package The Right Way

4:30AM | July 24, 2009 | comments: 1

Shipping packages can get expensive, but it's a good idea to stick to reputable companies that have a responsible history.

• First make sure the company has a license. Check with the Federal Maritime Commission, the Air Transport Association (IATA) and the US Department of Transportation.

• Shop around and get estimates. Get EVERYTHING in writing so you can evaluate which company fits your needs and budget. Especially, their insurance policy and any other fees.

• Always get a tracking number upfront.

• Make an itemized list of goods with a dollar value for each (a copy for the company and a copy for your records).

• And insurance can protect you if an item breaks or disappears in transit, making replacement less painful.
