What is a Business Delivery Zone?

‘business delivery is considered by us to be a delivery to a high-density delivery zone that includes, but is not limited to, shopping centres, business parks, and other businesses operating in main centres.

What is a Residential Delivery Zone?

residential delivery is considered by us to be a delivery to a low-density delivery zone that includes, but is not limited to, residential homes, businesses operating from residential homes, and businesses that are surrounded by residential homes.

What is a Rural/Non-Urban Delivery Zone? 

Rural/ Non-Urban areas are defined by New Zealand Couriers as those that sit outside our regularly serviced areas (Business & Residential Delivery Zones) and may differ from the rural classification of other courier and postal companies.
