Philpost "express pouch" guarantees next day delievery

In its efforts to continuously give quality service to the public, the Philippine Postal Corporation (PhilPost) has its "Express Pouch" next day delivery service which guarantees a next day door-to-door delivery of pouches sent by any individual.

The service is perfectly apt for sending time-sensitive important documents because it guarantees a 24-hour door-to-door delivery within the specified areas of coverage.

Sender availing of the service can put in all his mailable items at one time for as long as the items fit in the pouch bag. He is assured that his pouch has been delivered rightly because a delivery receipt where the sender can write delivery instructions is provided for in every pouch.
He is also sure that his pouch has been received by the right person because a proof of delivery is mailed or faxed back to the post office of origin within 24 hours from the time of addressee’s receipt of the pouch for sender’s verification purposes.

The PhilPost computerized Track and Trace System which enables the sender to know the whereabouts of pouches sent is another assurance of a sure and right delivery.

Mailing rates under this service depend on the weights of pouch sent. Small pouch up to 0.5 kilogram is P80.00, medium pouch up to 1.0 kilogram – P115.00, and large pouch up to 2.0 kilograms – P175.00.

The PhilPost offers a free pick-up service for bulk mailers. While the PhilPost is still studying how feasible is the implementation of this kind of service on other areas, this "Express Pouch" next day delivery is presently implemented between Metro Manila and Tacloban City areas for the meantime.
