In recent years, the courier industry booming logistics industry with the daily lives of ordinary people becoming more and more inseparable. However, the industry, management, operation mechanism of the rugged, employees in different ways, and other factors, but also to the vast number of consumers caused economic losses.

In recent days, reporters on the express delivery industry, unannounced visits, an industry veteran employees will clean breast of some unspoken rules.

national network? Shift again!

Xiaohua (a pseudonym) University graduate, is engaged in the express delivery industry, has engaged in this industry have more than three years. Today, he has been where the company enhance the department heads.

According to small Huajie Shao

in Hohhot, the regional scale, in addition to three or four large-scale courier companies, and the remaining approximately 20 courier companies are very limited. Although advertisers often claim that certain courier companies in the country has its own network, but this is bragging. These small courier companies, but more than a dozen individuals, including the boss, executives, accountants, sorting, Kuguan, of course, essential to the courier. So many people, not to mention the field operations, a Hohhot simply cover, how can there be any “national network”?

then, these small courier companies how to conduct the business of it? Xiaohua said that these companies are usually lower than the price of the big companies to attract customers, and to embrace the business, to contact the run LTL (Editor’s note: refers to the scattered cargo makes up the vehicle shipped to off-site) business van. These are usually the cargo capacity of 10 tons of vans, goods of more than a small courier company to make up a car full, and then the road. To consider their own costs, so do not lobbied for a full car, van, not the road.

the next, such as goods shipped to Guilin, Guangxi, after arriving in Beijing by the local contact good courier companies to conduct transshipment. With jargon, is sold to it, which is part of the freight paid to the other side. Further down, the Beijing logistics courier companies in the same manner the goods before being placed in the van another one bound for Nanning, Guangxi. Arrived in Nanning, Guangxi, local courier company then took over, of course, earn from part of the freight, then “sell” to a courier company in Guilin, the goods this point finally reached their destination.

the surface, which is the convergence and transmission of business between peers, but not lost beyond recognition, and no matter which link delays, goods tend to shift again to arrive, the whole consignments arrived at the destination, time will be postponed.

courier companies have branches in many cities across the country have their own long-distance freight vehicles, so the situation better. However, this does not mean that the big companies is impeccable. Xiaohua told reporters that an important means of large companies to solicit business, is to emphasize the breadth of their own coverage. In fact, it is also suspected of “bragging”. Perhaps the coverage of large and medium cities, big companies may have certain advantages in areas such as counties in a class of large companies it is impossible to set up specialized branches, strength, cost and other factors restricting the possibilities.

most likely to practice, if a few pieces of goods from Guangzhou, the destination is Baotou Guyang, then, after arriving in Hohhot, the company will send someone to the bus station to find a vehicles will Guyang bound long-distance bus to every piece of goods the price of how much freight and bus drivers negotiated, in fact, are equivalent to “sell” to the driver. Then, call the local contact to the bus station to accept the goods. If you happen to be in where there is no such contacts, call direct notice to the consignee, to accept the goods to the bus station. Couriers

chipping away

in the process of the reporter secretly see a lot of courier company office wall, plastered to crack down on within the thief, called on staff devoted to doing good posters, and there are some companies within the anti-theft measures and specific provisions. This also reflects the seriousness and salience of these aspects. Xiaohua from goods shipment until the final destination, theft is almost everywhere, just different programs to the people of the tricky differ nothing.

In general, executives, accountants, warehousing, sorting, basically there is no theft opportunity, because the internal control measures and goods into the registration of the library is more strict, so these links theft, is sitting in the office to chat, see Xinjiang Pear, Yantai apple, Yunnan ham, Bayannur oil sunflower one class of goods packaging box “happens” appears a gap, so hand “molar.” However, compared to the industry a lot of “hotshots” who acts, which are really nothing.

talked about the courier, Xiaohua said the courier practice is to “eat money” not “eat the goods”, which is go express inquiry to the shipper or to generic “, if the other party proposed to go express, usually express than Pu parts per kilogram and more charge two dollars shipping. Courier to retrieve the goods to the company, told the company: “They go Pu customers”. As a result, if the customer consignment of goods 10 kg, twenty dollars a sure hand with piercing into the pockets of the courier.

Xiaohua said that this is the most common and most secure courier to make money the way, is basically foolproof. Because within the courier companies, courier, Cape destination time is actually almost the same, customers simply do not see one of the transmission of the disease. Courier in order to earn money benefits, often the difference between the two exaggerate, mislead consumers the concept of express than the S & P early destination.

the

Moreover, the couriers are often back to the company, the weight of the goods as far as possible to the less, such as 10 kg of goods sent to Chengdu, Sichuan Province, per kilogram of freight ten dollars. Courier charge customers $ 10 dollars, when the goods are forwarded to the company, but claimed that only eight kilograms, so that he would only eighty dollars to the company, twenty dollars naturally became themselves for the “bonus”. On the surface, doing so only harmed the interests of the company will not let the customers suffer any loss. In fact, in the transportation process, any “conscientious” from pilfering two kilograms of goods, at the same time can rely on the invoice has shrunk to evade their own responsibility, so, the final loss, or consumers.

Xiaohua, an experienced courier, at least by the means to ensure their own meal, drinks, completely subject to the availability of tobacco money.

airport link is a big colander

in the courier industry, line transhipment cargo by air is becoming increasingly common. Xiaohua told reporters that this is actually the current theft is one of the most serious. Practices unusual but reflects the real “professional level”.

the Xiaohua understand that the courier company responsible for transport to the airport staff, usually with the airport to take the recipient of the work of the collusion of the implementation of the theft. Upon meeting, both sides began tacitly to deliver goods, the so-called “transfer”, in fact, is equipped with the goods by hand Dian Dian. It is said that the experience complete by virtue of the component to determine exactly what kind of goods in the box. In order to verify their own judgment, they will be sorting out the many goods fell to the ground, the carton is unable to withstand the blows, and is bound to appear to rip you can see from this chasm, which exactly fitted what. If laptops, cell phones, high-end clothing and other valuables, related might appropriation. If an error of judgment, which is not something valuable, this carton basic will not reach their destination, are likely to be abandoned in a trash can. Personnel issued a “Notice of the reported loss”, then all is well.

fat difference in the end how much fat?

to close to the airport, hair goods jobs is a well known courier companies lucrative. Xiaohua, a good friend from Hohhot Qingshuihe, in addition, a courier company, responsible to the airport, hair, and shipping goods. Practitioners less than three years, has purchased for himself a Beijing Hyundai have less than three years to buy a house is not a problem.

However, the the Xiaohua friend has been by his company and removed from his post. Because his boss, of course clear that there tricky, so this post is often replaced, afraid they too familiar mixed with the airport’s fellow human, the collusion to damage the company reputation.

In addition to this link the theft in the process of the entire carrier, almost everywhere, but the frequency and severity is not so serious. According small Hua Jieshao, his another friend, also from the poor rural households, stevedores, when a courier company, is a “Kind”. About to be married, he almost did to purchase household items to spend any money, a lot of things are pilfering.

In addition, in the long-distance transport phase, the commissioning run LTL vehicle transhipment stage, or commissioned a long-distance bus drivers to help transport goods stage, any relevant people pilfering.

the unspoken rules of formation of accidental

so many What are the causes of the unspoken rules allow consumers to shudder? The Xiaohua according to their own experience and the status of the courier industry, were analyzed.

First, the logistics and express industry, the threshold is too low, resulting in numerous itself does not have the qualification for the small companies mushroomed in large numbers. Only a dozen people, opened a company, its capacity and strength do not form a normal operation. For example, during the Spring Festival the past few years, a large number of consumers suffering from the delay received less than the pain of the goods, and the reason lies in the ability of many small companies simply can not carriage of so many goods, while the larger companies is overloaded.

the same time, too many intermediate links, is also an important reason. Xiaohua held a very vivid example: a monkey If you want a bucket of water referred to the destination would be a waste for a long time. If a group of monkeys to pass, the speed will quickly improve them. This is of course nothing wrong. However, a group of monkeys to pass a bucket of water, then steep rise in efficiency, this bucket of water to reach the destination, perhaps only half a bucket of the So, whether it is internal theft problem or repeated hands, transhipment cargo has a direct relationship with the intermediate links excessive.

another point of concern, relevant laws and regulations from an objective, almost entirely deprived of the protection of consumers, almost to the courier company to maximize the industry protection. The main terms of two aspects: First, in a courier company policy, often indicate the carrier the right to appoint a third party carrier, “most consumers are not very concerned about;” Postal Law provides that: courier company lost goods after the payment standard, shall not exceed 20 yuan for each kg. In other words, consumers lost even if it is diamond jewelry, real money, the courier company up to a maximum of Peifu so much. Experience Xiaohua, sharply evaluate the terms: “Whether the consumer how to court, the final winning certainly is a courier company, because this law is called in our express delivery industry – industry protection provisions!”

based on many years of experience, Xiaohua want consumers to consignment, be sure to leave acting, do not listen to the blind flicker of the courier. At the same time, if the consignment of valuables, in any case have on the insurance, because as far as he knew, many consumers are reluctant to insure for their own goods. However, if lost, according to the relevant provisions of the previously mentioned laws, the consumer will lose everything, so do not lose the greater. The reporters Ah China
