What to Look for in a Courier to Italy
Transporters to Italy should conform to the following standards before you consider them for completing your delivery job.

Insurance: This is the most important thing to check out when looking for a European courier. Not only does it protect the contents of the delivery, it gives you some indication that you’re dealing with a creditable outfit.

Accreditation: When looking to hire a delivery driver to Italy it can help to find one that is a registered member of a recognised delivery association. These organised bodies set strict standards for delivery and courier services across Europe.

Feedback: One of the best ways to judge a delivery driver is by examining reviews of their service from customers they’ve served before.

Other Delivery Considerations

An Italian courier is going to cost a lot more than a simple move up the road, the average rate per mile for a courier is around £1.20 per mile, so from delivery London to Rome by road (and ferry) could cost you in excess of £1,000! But luckily Shiply can help you find cheaper courier quotes to Italy.
