In the last few days before Christmas, the package business in Berlin has been quiet. The acceptance points are overcrowded with parcels, and the deliverers have their hands full. Like B.Z. reported, various packages were sent from Charlottenburg to Hermsdorf, and everyone arrived the next day - despite the high package volume of over 500,000 programs from DHL in the city alone. This shows that the Berlin parcel services can also achieve record -breaking delivery times in the high phase of the Christmas season.

The speed at which the DHL package was transported was particularly surprising. After it was made on December 12th between 1 p.m. and 1:45 p.m., delivery took place at 11 a.m. on the following day - a duration of only 22 hours. The price is also competitive to send a package with DHL, and available from 3.40 euros. This fast delivery was under high pressure, because over 1700 delivery vehicles and 2100 messengers are currently in use in Berlin. Hermes recommends that Christmas packages should be abandoned at 12 p.m. at the latest to arrive in good time.

Surprise in watch shipping

When it comes to sending valuable objects such as watches, sellers are faced with many challenges. According to Chrononautix.com's statements, many package services - including DHL - are not suitable for sending watches if their value exceeds 500 euros. This limit is a risk because a watch is no longer insured from this value. For the safe shipping of valuable watches, it is advisable to use specialized value shipping services such as Intex or Galle. These providers not only guarantee fast delivery, often the next day, but also a more comprehensive insurance of the programs.

In summary, it can be said that while the parcel services in Berlin shine with record speeds, the shipping of watches requires special caution. Seller should be well informed to avoid potential losses. If you want to send expensive watches, you should choose professional service providers to ensure safe transport and insurance, as the experience reports in the clock community show.
