Nowadays, various places are affected by the epidemic in Wuhan, so everyone cannot go out, but many people still choose to buy things online. But in this case, can express delivery still be delivered? What should I do with the express delivery I purchased before? These are also things that many people want to know. The editor of Best is here to answer them for you.
Due to the epidemic in Wuhan and other reasons, express delivery timeliness will definitely be affected, but STO, Yunda, BEST, and SF Express have made it clear that there will be people on duty to ensure the operation of the delivery network in Wuhan. As a key epidemic area in Wuhan, whether its logistics network can be smoothly guaranteed has become a major concern for citizens. STO told a reporter from the Beijing News that at present, operations in Wuhan are guaranteed according to the Spring Festival holiday schedule, but it is undeniable that the delivery situation in the area will be affected.
On January 20, emergency deployment was made to the entire network, especially the Wuhan area, and a special team was set up to follow up on the epidemic situation. The first batch of 3,500 masks will be sent to STO couriers in the Wuhan area. On hand, a thermometer and other items have also been arranged. The authorities also stated that they urgently purchased masks and distributed them to couriers in Wuhan.
The ones that are still working now are SF Express, Postal Service, and JD.com. SF Express has stopped land transportation, and only air transportation is available, but the cost is relatively high, and the first weight is usually one kilogram. It costs more than twenty yuan. Express delivery fees will increase during this period. Nowadays, many express delivery services for online shopping are still unable to deliver goods normally.
How should express delivery be handled during the epidemic?
The "Operation Standards for Business Outlets During Epidemic Prevention and Control (Recommended Version)" requires express delivery companies to strictly implement the acceptance inspection system. The standard requires that business personnel must strictly inspect the contents when receiving express mail. . It is strictly prohibited to collect or send wild animals to prevent prohibited items from flowing into delivery channels. For the fresh and cold items delivered by customers, it is not recommended to deliver them during this period due to factors such as the disinfection of express mail. For medical supplies, appliances and medicines sent by individuals to areas with severe epidemics, the attributes of the contents of the items must be entered into the system and properly packaged to ensure the safety of express mail delivery.
The announcement also requires that outlets with delivery services must make arrangements for delivery operations in accordance with the requirements of local government departments for epidemic prevention and control, and ensure the timely delivery of express mail (in case of special circumstances, the local post office must be promptly informed. Report to management). Delivery personnel must wear masks correctly for protection, and must undergo body temperature checks when arriving and returning to work. Before submitting an express mail, you must contact the recipient by phone to determine the delivery method and send it to a smart express box as much as possible to avoid the risk of infection.
Although many express delivery companies have already put into work, their work is now being tested. The reason is that due to the epidemic, many communities do not even allow couriers to enter, which makes their work difficult. There are still express delivery services available, but time constraints are still severe.
Not all domestic roads are closed, so express delivery can still be sent, and logistics vehicles are not among the banned types specified by the government. Currently, logistics is still a guaranteed type, so don’t worry, but some express delivery is still available. It is affected and cannot be sent normally. Please understand that if you have any questions about sending, you can consult the site and the company... Most areas are not affected. The future situation will await further notice from the superior department
