TNT is sure faster than Poslaju, but when it comes to custom problem, only Poslaju(EMS) is best~~ u can get your item out very easily but if TNT, u will be tax directly~

i send a lot of International Parcel, it just my 1 cent~~

nobody get confused as TNTT only do local courier~ and TNT is doing International courier~~

and i think many courier do reverse pickup n delivery too.... even poslaju can do.... all just need an email to their centre ya~~

i tracked my shipment, here's the result. don't really know what it means because this is my first time doing online shopping.

"On tracing" usually means
- on route to destination city (not your house yeah)
- processing in-progress
- trying to identify where you are

By the looks of the dates, it looks promising that it will arrive tomorrow.

really? hmm the "shipment on tracing" thing came out after i called the customer service

received my parcel this morning. well, i think ABX service depends on the branch itself i guess

city link front line is very bossy and unprofessional. i don't know why they are pissed with the customers all the time.

u mean in malaysia custom or foreign custom?

Which courier is the cheapest to ship internationally from Malaysia?

Hi, I would like to ask which courier service will be ideal to send a tablet from Perak to Pahang? Thanks in advance~

Hi all, I would like to send items ( photobook, shirt etc) total less than 1kg to Singapore. I bought a hard cover box to put my stuff in it. Do they count the box's weight in as well?

My question is, Pos Laju or Parcel ? I am afraid that if I use parcel service, my items will not reach Singapore on time because I don't want to miss my friend's birthday.

If I use EMS, Pos Laju or City-Link Express?

I asked Pos Laju today and they said item less than 1kg costs RM 45 + 25% surcharges. But the items will reach within 2-3 days.

I checked City-Link Express and use the rate calculator. The price estimated is RM 52.

Sifus can you guys help me to figure out which one is better in terms of delivery and money wise..

Thanks!!

To answer your question - there is no cheapest. Every courier has its price, based on destination countries.
Based on my own experience, TNT & UPS.

DHL is now famous, so it is also most of the time, the most expensive...

I bought my tablet online too. KL -> PJ via Pos Laju.

There is a standardised measurement employed by the whole world.

City-Link, UPS, TNT, DHL, FEDEX calculation is based on box = Height x Length x Width (cm) / 5000 = Dimensional / volumetric weight
Pos Laju =Height x Length x Width (cm) / 6000 = Dimensional / volumetric weight (so Pos Laju rates are usually cheaper, coz the weight measurement already reduced).

Actual weight = item + box + consignment note + tape to seal the box

The price is based on either the dimensional weight OR actual weight, whichever is higher.

All couriers have 25% surcharges + 6% GST.

I do not know the price of your courier, but I can only recommend to let the experts tell you. Please refer to your nearest MBE outlet @ www.mbe.com.my (--> aiyo, I sound like advertising for them for free only... )
In my personal opinion, City-Link express is much cheaper at the outlet.

I noticed those who complain in this thread usually are from outside Klang Valley. This is probably due to the courier's small network they are unable to reach many places or lacked of branches to service the area.

I personally does not have much problem receiving and posting items everywhere around Malaysia. Even purchasing from overseas is not a big issue.

Based on my experience, DHL is extremely efficient in handling oversea parcels. Fedex is just almost as good. TNT can go fly kite.

Local couriers are generally ok. However, Gdex do falls into my shitlist. They do not call their customer. I have asked their customer service and the reply is it's their company policy not to call customer. They will come and attempt delivery 2 times and then you will need to pick up from their center. The only other courier who does not call is Poslaju. Still their courier guy will try to call me sometimes.

Hi all, just want to find out, are all courier services going to open up our packages to check the items? For both international and local.

Not courier service but customs. If customs suspect your package got illegal or prohibited or taxable item, then BINGO!

Hi, thanks for the clarification.

Hi guys. I need know whether citylink express, Miri do provide any insurance? I currently need they to post something to my place which is around 10 kgs. Any insurance if something wrong with my good? It's a monitor.

Hi guys, may I know which courier is the cheapest for parcel? I want to deliver 40x40x28 box to KL
