Parcelled: Get On-Demand Shipping Service at Your Fingertips

We get everything online and I have been saying it since past few tech discussions on Amfas Tech and other sites as well. It is good to get products that you see on digital screens in hours or days right to your doorsteps. But, what if you wanted to send a package to your loved ones? How many times have you been to a shipping services office? It’s ok if you got all the 24 hours in a day. Unfortunately, we don’t have that time to spend. Shopping online to save time and still sending couriers by going to their offices? Is it fair?

Let’s talk about a scenario that I have faced recently.

“I ordered a new photo album for a friend’s wedding and I wanted to give it filed with all our memories. I cannot directly order it to his place, it needs to be stricken with all our memorable photos. So, I should be getting that by hand and present it myself by hand.

Unfortunately, I had to leave for an urgent meeting on the same day of wedding. All my friends were already started and I had no other option rather than searching for a quick delivery service online that can pick up the package from my home and deliver it safely to the right man on time.

Then I came to know about this Parcelled app where I set my pickup and delivery location, paid the shipping charges and a boy came to pick up the package in no time. It nearly saved me two hours of time where I used it to arrange things for my urgent meeting.”

When real-life need meets technology in the shape of a smartphone application, how could I not review it? Let’s get to know about Parcelled app in detail technically. I am going to take you through the features of the app and how they can be utilized.

What is Parcelled?

Parcelled is an on-demand shipping startup that was started in India recently and operating their services from online. They don’t have any physical branches and operates their services from online. They have five pick up locations and several delivery locations all over India by now.

Features:

Choose your items easily

Shipping is not just transporting goods but transporting goods safely. Parcelled App lets you choose an item from a long list of common items.

Book & pick up in 2 minutes

The whole booking process takes less than 2 minutes. All you need to do is just select your type of object you are sending, set the pickup & delivery locations, give the full address and pay the fee. 

Preferred pickup time

You can set the convenient pickup time and the Parcelled team is ready to pick the package at any time in earthly hours.

Real-time tracking updates

You can keep track of the status of the package until it is delivered right from your screen. You may know the status or get any other inquiries answered through a single phone call.

Verdict

The Parcelled team could have ended up as another courier or shipping service if they haven’t touched the awesomeness of technology. The UI of the app is easy and need no special skills to use. Any normal smartphone user can make his/her way through in a blink of an eye.

Technically, the application didn’t exhibit any errors or lags while using on my Asus Zenfone 2. The only cons about Parcelled is that the availability of pickup and delivery locations. I hope that they are already trying to expand their reach all over the country.
