December 4, 2020 0Industry Trends & Market InsightsLogistics & Shipping Solutions

The holidays are here, and with them comes the hustle and bustle of gift-giving, festive meals, and, of course, shipping. As we enter December, it’s the perfect time to start planning your shipments for the holiday season. With so many packages in transit, it’s crucial to ensure that your gifts, orders, and packages arrive on time and in perfect condition. At Logixacross, we’re here to help you navigate the holiday shipping season with ease and efficiency.

From ensuring timely delivery of your gifts to handling last-minute orders, we’re committed to making your holiday shipping experience smooth and stress-free. But with the increase in demand and the busy holiday season ahead, it’s important to take a few key steps to ensure everything runs on time.

1. Stick to Holiday Shipping Deadlines for Timely Deliveries

The holiday season is always a busy time for shipping, and this year is no exception. In fact, with many people opting to shop online due to the ongoing pandemic, shipping volumes are expected to be higher than ever before. To avoid any last-minute stress and ensure your packages arrive on time, we highly recommend shipping early.

Here are the recommended deadlines to ensure your packages reach their destination before the holidays:

  • Standard Shipping: Ship by December 17th to ensure your gifts and packages arrive before Christmas Eve.
  • Expedited Shipping: Ship by December 20th to guarantee arrival before Christmas.
  • Express Shipping: Ship by December 22nd for guaranteed delivery on December 24th, just in time for the big day!

By shipping before the recommended deadlines, you can avoid the risk of delays and the panic of last-minute shipping. Remember, the earlier you send out your packages, the more likely they are to arrive in time, reducing the risk of missing out on holiday celebrations.

2. Keep Packaging in Mind for Safe Holiday Shipments

While timing is essential, packaging plays a major role in ensuring that your gifts, decorations, or food arrive in excellent condition. This is especially true during the holiday season, when items are being handled by multiple couriers and going through multiple stages of transport.

Here are some tips for packaging your holiday shipments securely:

  • Use high-quality boxes and padding: Fragile gifts, such as glass ornaments or delicate kitchenware, need extra protection. Consider using bubble wrap, foam inserts, and packing peanuts to cushion items.
  • Seal packages tightly: During busy shipping periods, packages are handled quickly and moved around a lot. Make sure to seal your packages securely with strong, durable tape to prevent items from shifting inside the box.
  • Label your packages clearly: Ensure the recipient’s address is clearly visible and correct. Using a permanent marker for addresses can help avoid any smudging. Also, consider labeling the box with “fragile” or “perishable” if the contents require special handling.

Whether you’re shipping holiday gifts, food items, or business orders, taking extra care with packaging can save you time and stress down the road. A well-packed box also helps avoid delays due to damage or mishandling.

3. Last-Minute Holiday Shipping: We’ve Got You Covered

For many people, the holidays can sneak up on you, and sometimes last-minute shipping is unavoidable. Fortunately, Logixacross is here to help you get those last-minute packages to their destination quickly and securely.

4. Holiday Shipping for Businesses: Prepare for the Rush

For business owners, the holidays represent one of the busiest times of the year. Whether you’re sending orders for your e-commerce store, fulfilling last-minute corporate gifts, or shipping holiday promotions, it’s important to be prepared for the increase in volume.

Here are a few things businesses should keep in mind to ensure smooth shipping operations:

  • Plan for peak demand: Order your packaging materials, shipping labels, and any other supplies in advance. The sooner you can prepare, the better equipped you’ll be to handle increased demand.
  • Use bulk shipping options: For businesses with high-volume shipments, consider using bulk shipping options to streamline your process. At Logixacross, we offer business solutions tailored to handle large orders efficiently. Our business solutions can help you get more done in less time, saving you money and energy.
  • Communicate delivery times: Let your customers know the shipping deadlines to ensure they get their items in time for the holidays. Being transparent about potential delays or cut-off dates builds trust and prevents frustration.

By getting a head start, your business can keep the momentum going through the holiday season while minimizing disruptions. Pre-scheduled pickups and bulk rate shipping discounts will ensure your operation runs smoothly all season long.

5. Stay Informed: Track Your Shipments

With so many packages in transit during December, it’s important to stay on top of your shipments. At Logixacross, we offer real-time tracking for all of your orders. Whether you’re sending gifts or managing bulk orders, tracking keeps you informed every step of the way.

Our easy-to-use tracking system allows you to:

  • Set up delivery alerts to stay informed when packages are delivered.
  • Track multiple shipments in one place to streamline your process.

If you’re a business owner or an individual sending multiple gifts, our tracking system makes it simple to ensure everything is on track. Whether it’s one package or dozens, you can rest assured knowing where your shipment is at all times.
