When handing over a parcel to relatives or friends by mail, the sender usually pays the shipping cost himself. However, in the work, for example, of an online store, it may be necessary to send a parcel at the expense of the recipient, that is, by cash on delivery. This can be done through the most common post office. Postage under this scheme is first paid by the sender, but then the recipient, upon receiving the parcel, returns the amount spent.
It is necessary
- - a box for a parcel;
- - form for sending by cash on delivery;
- - money to pay for postage.
Instructions
Step 1
Pack the package. For this purpose, it is best to purchase a box of a suitable size directly from the post office. The boxes that are sold there have fields for the address. But you can pack the parcel both at home and in the warehouse, unless you are going to make an inventory of the attachment. In the latter case, the parcel is finally closed at the post office so that the postal employee can check whether its contents match the list you provided.
Step 2
It is better to send parcels with postage paid by the recipient with a list of attachments. Fill out the appropriate form. It is drawn up in duplicate and certified by the operator's signature. Put one copy in the parcel, keep the second for yourself. It is necessary to draw up an inventory so that the recipient has no complaints against you. Seal the package carefully.
Step 3
Calculate the cost of the payment. It should be such that the seller, in the role of which you are in this case, is not at a loss. The total cost of postage depends on the distance and the amount of cash on delivery. The postal clerk can give you the advice you need.
Step 4
To send a parcel at the expense of the recipient, ask for a special form. It is in any post office. Fill in the required fields. In addition to the usual data for any postal item, it is also necessary to indicate here the amount of cash on delivery and the method of receiving money. They can be received by postal order or to a bank account. In the first case, indicate your mailing address, in the second - your bank details. The first option is suitable for individuals. When sending such a parcel from an enterprise, the received money will need to be sent through the cash register. The second method is universal, both a legal entity and an individual can receive money to a bank account.
Step 5
Return the parcel and the completed form to the postal worker. Don't forget to get your receipt. Keep it until you receive the money.
