I spoke to SameDay Courier, Special Services and they indicated that if the parcel were small (undefined) it would, in all likelihood, be interlined to Global Express.

Don't know if this will help.

Good luck.

Default SameDay Courier is an Oxymoron

Has anyone actually received a package withing 24 hours here? All the overnight services, freight forwarders, brokers, couriers, door to doors, etc. come in and make their pitch and still have I yet to receive anything within 24 hours. The blame always goes to the Aduanas, which is usually correct. Has gotten even worst with this .04% tax. Bear in mind I am in a FTZ and none of this is LCL.

If you contact me and say your service is different we will give it a shot as long as you guarantee overnight.

Hi Budson,

FYI in the context of this thread "sameday" in the name of the courier company - not the delivery service standard; let alone a guarantee.

Even in Canada, the vast majority of the deliveries by this company exceed the 24 hour threshold.
