In order to ship your items as safe as possible, we can ask the carriers not to put any packages on top of your package (thus your package cannot be squeezed). These declaration has to be paid to the carriers as they “loose” scope in the plane.

Express Services are not only faster but also more secure because Express Packages will not be smashed on belts where they are dropped and smashed against each other! It is really worth pay more for Express when shipping internationally where packages are transported on several automated belts. Also Express Packages are treated with utmost priority while Economy or Standard don’t mean a transportation guarantee (only if scope on plane, Economy & Standard will be transported).
Please mind that UPS Express Saver is not a typical Express Service and has no transport guarantee!
