We at NursingUnifroms.ie are back from the summer holidays and are very busy with people ordering nurses uniforms and lab coats for autumn.
Lab coats are in demand right now and this brings us to the subject of transport costs.
All of our postage up until now, for orders placed on the website, has been shipped by An Post. Recently they have been increasing the cost of parcel post to such an extent that, we have now decided to use a courier service to ship parcels where 3 or more garments are ordered.
There are 2 major differences between the post office parcel delivery service and courier delivery.
1. Small parcels send by An Post cannot be tracked and are delivered without a signature. An Post is of comparable cost to courier up to 2 garments.
Once we send 3 or more garments it becomes cheaper to send by courier.
2. The other major difference is that An Post will deliver the parcel even if nobody is at the delivery address. Courier on the other hand always need a signature so as proof of delivery can be established.
The cost of shipping to the customer will now be capped at €6.50 for all deliveries regardless of quantity (within reason).
NursingUnifroms.ie hopes that this change will be an improvement in service to our customers.
We continually strive to supply best quality nurses uniforms, lab coats, white coats and chef’s jackets at the cheapest possible prices.

This blog will concern itself with topics which are relevant to business dealings with our customers. We intend to write occasionally about, day to day, subjects relevant to our business of providing Ireland with the quality, cheap nursing uniforms at the best prices available in Ireland.
