Postage Q&A
Q: What happen when the Poslaju postman comes when you're not at home?
A: They will send you a card asking you to self collect at their Poslaju branch (a map is provided for reference). (4) You may also call them to resend it. (8)

Q: When is the collection time of Pos Ekpress?
A: Same with Poslaju. 6pm. (6)

Q: Does Poslaju deliver on Sunday?
A: No, except in Terengganu, Kelantan and Kedah (7)

Q: How do I track overseas packages?
A: It is not possible. (9)

Q: What is the difference between Pos Express and Pos Laju?
A: They're almost the same in the sense that both are delivered to your doorstep, but
Pos Express may be less secure because the recipient can be anyone. (10)

Q: Does Poslaju require a signature for all the mail/package no matter what size is it?
A: The new Pos laju form requires you to tick either "Document" or "Non-document". If you tick non-document, then you may have to declare its contents and sign it off too. (11, 12)

i just went to post something using post laju, very very expensive

they now kira like this:

panjang. length (cm) x lebar. width (cm) x tinggi. height (cm) then finally devide by 6000 = your post laju weight

i only post something for 1.5KG, but according to the post malaysia calculation above, my stuff is 5.148KG, it cost me RM29.40 !

Poslaju parcel, all you'll have to do is tick the option "Parcel" on the form
Pack the card in a box with proper padding and you're good to go

Well you could use an envelope with padding on the inside, but i wouldnt recommend that

Because the way they handle the item. They might throw it around or when in transit something heavy might sit on your envelope, etc.
