Once in a while we all want to send goods to our loved ones back home in Zimbabwe. About two weeks ago I was shopping around for cheaper and reliable courier services to Zimbabwe, when a friend of mine referred me to a freelance courier from Zimbabwe.
I was able to send my little sister’s baby stuff from London, and I was impressed by the service all the goods got to Zimbabwe and on time.
For a while now we have had these enterprising man and women coming from Zimbabwe on their regular business trips. And on the journey back home they carry your goods for for a set price. I find them comparatively cheaper than other shipping companies to Zimbabwe and very reliable.
Plus the business of shipping goods to Zimbabwe has got a lot of conman involved. Many Zimbabweans in the diaspora have stories to tell about these criminals.
The main advantage is the personalised service, in my case my little sister could not go and collect her goods because she had just given birth. And the gentleman delivered her goods home. How nice was that…God bless him.
On the occasions that I have used these freelance couriers to send my goods to Zimbabwe, I haven’t had any problems of my goods getting lost or my goods taking half a year to get to Zimbabwe. So I would recommend them if you get someone you trust.
Unlike the last time I send my goods to Zimbabwe with one of the shipping companies, they took six months to get my goods to Zimbabwe. You can read the story here (Before Sending Your Goods To Zimbabwe Read This).
So have you used freelance couriers to send goods to Zimbabwe? What was your experience like? Feel Free to share by posting your comments.

Hi Peter,
Nice to know that you got a good service. I would have appreciated if you had told your fellow Zimbabweans what was good about the service that you got.
What makes this company different from all those so called Zim cargo companies out there?
