Factors That Affect Turnaround Times

Multiple practical factors can speed up or delay your delivery:

1

Drop-Off Time Relative to Branch Cutoff

Parcels tendered before the 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM shuttle cutoff depart the same evening. Later drop-offs stage for the next day.

2

Address Specificity & Landmarks

Clear barangay codes, house numbers, and landmark notations prevent rider navigation delays.

3

Extreme Weather & Ferry Suspensions

Tropical storms and typhoon signals cause the Philippine Coast Guard to suspend inter-island maritime crossings.
