Jy het niks om oor te kla nie... 4x4Direct se winkel in Brackenfell is letterlik 800m van my huis af.... EK moes al my pad terug huis toe van die werk af verander net om NIE in die versoeking te kom elke middag nie.... :twisted: :twisted:

Unfortunately PostNet post is also sent via the post office. Collected in one batch at the post office by postnet and then distributed in the individual postnet boxes.

we send about 150 packages per year (NOT 4x4 related :tease: )

all said and done we use SpeedServices, ie post office.

the typical couriers don't deliver to "small dorpies" - I cant spend time on each package to find out who delivers where .... so we just use SpeedServices and get done with it.


Counter-to-Door is the best IF delivered to a work address. This does NOT work to private address, as the recipient all to often is not at home and the package is returned ....

And that sir, is my biggest problem.............
I am away from home 6 months of the year and shop :frustrated: :frustrated: online 99% of the time.
Thus SWAMBO gets a bit irritated having to arrange to stay home for couriers.
Just thought PostNet would be better. I can not believe that the post office can actually cripple a country.
On the other hand "The Courier Guy" that 4x4direct use is fantastic. Always up to date with tracking the parcel. :applaud: :applaud:
