Same-Day Delivery in the Philippines

We’re all expected to stay at home, that’s boring and we need something to do to keep our sanity. So we look online and order anything we could think of just to get productive or entertained. And our generation wants everything to be instant! With that, how do we get our things to our doors as quickly as possible? Through same day delivery services!

Courier services have become more essential than ever. From basic goods and take-out food, to personal hobbies that have we all need, these frontline services have been touted as one of the heroes of this global pandemic.

The simple transporting passenger service from point A to point B has now diversified and entered a same-day delivery option called GrabExpress and GrabExpress Lite. The parcels are safely insured up to 10K.

Another express delivery provider is Lalamove. They can transport goods ranging from small parcels, documents, and personal items to bulky and heavy items like your business supplies and even furniture.
