Additional Delivery Leg This is an ‘after delivery’ service that was introduced due to requests made by existing clients. In many cases our importers need to work on their consignments before they arrange delivery to their final customer. This additional leg is available to clients who have the option of sending any domestic delivery quotes/requests through to us for assistance in obtaining more affordable pricing. By utilizing our bulk buying power and through strategic partnerships with a few strictly preauthorized providers, our clients often benefit by our negotiating prices on their behalf. Should you require it, our team assist in co-coordinating this additional delivery leg and obtain the signed POD on your clients behalf.
