Bicycle Couriers service providers to create the best boxed bicycle transport network in South Africa

Bicycle couriers have joined forces with 1½ dozen service providers below. To send your boxed bicycle from point (A) to (B) across the country. We collect every weekday. And we can also send your boxed bicycle 24hrs overnight express, in an emergency. E-bikes are welcome. And if you are participating in and IRONMAN® or similar event we even offer high-end carbon race and gravel bike rentals right here. Brilliant. And now for a bit more info on each of our valued partners. Bicycle couriers exist because we are the best boxed bicycle courier aggregators in the country. And we buy in bulk. So can offer the lowest rates!

BEX Business Express

Business express is another newly added bicycle courier service provider. Not on parcel perfect. But they created the right impression during the quote phase. Even though the results came back as expected. They focus more on e-commerce and smaller parcels rather than bulk boxed bicycle transport. Which is exactly where we fit in. But their systems and API can make for viable options. And their international department is quick to respond. Which is ideal.

DCB Logistics

DCB logistics is a bicycle couriers service provider where we spend a lot of time getting to know the team. And up our volumes to over 100 boxed bicycles per month and counting. It takes time to learn a team. But by contrast, with the correct systems in place it isn’t necessary to spend as much time on the phone. Which is ideal. And what I prefer. As now we send boxed bicycles all across the country and sometimes only need to make a few phone calls every week.

DSV Logistics

DSV was one of our first bicycle couriers service providers. Driving past the CPT international airport and seeing that massive southern hemisphere DSV warehouse right next to the N2 is comforting. But truth be told, it is often quicker and easier to deal with smaller companies and getting things done in a simple structure rather than a big corporate entity. They are great at what they do though, and we do send boxed bicycles cross-border into Africa with DSV as well.

FEDEX Federal Express

Fedex for international boxed bicycle shipments through bicycle couriers. Look no further for boxed bicycle transport if you cannot fly with your own bicycle. Granted, it is costly, which is why it only makes sense if you are (A) not price sensitive or (B) have a sentimental or irreplaceable bike or (C) some other reasons we must still think of here. But often you can consider selling on the one end and buying new on the other end. Unless it is a large specific tandem MTB that goes from SA to Spain for example, with few alternatives!

DHL Express

DHL also for international boxed bicycle shipments through bicycle couriers. Need some international stock photo pics for your boxed bicycle courier company. This is an easy solution. Account setup is a breeze as it happens online, complete with signatures. But sending boxed bicycles abroad remains relatively expensive. Which is why buying one of our ultimate bikeboxes and taking your bicycle with you or someone you know on the flight will still be an easier and more cost-effective solution.

Aramex couriers

Aramex couriers is a bicycle couriers service provider that came on board this year. After we saw so many of the bicycle boxes that pass through our depot and to and from Specialized with the Aramex barcode stickers on. So, it made sense to reach out. Their online platform for booking boxed bicycles is sleek and comprehensive. Let’s see where this relationship goes. Oh, and did we mention they are also involved in the ABSA Cape EPIC? Now that can be a gamechanger.

ITT Intertown Transport

Intertown transport is another one of our bicycle couriers service providers. In fact, this was where we were introduced to parcel perfect for the first time. And a lot transpired from there. ITT has a very focused and specific network and routes. And while is is ideal for some routes, it is not the be-all-and-end-all solution for all boxed bicycle transport across South Africa. Which is why we kept on exploring. Because a rolling stone gathers no moss. But sending through ITT remains quick and easy.

Aptekor Koeriers

Aptekor couriers is a local boxed bicycle couriers service provider. Located in one of my favourite parts of the country. The head office is in Citrusdal. And we hail from Clanwilliam, at least for a while. Aptekor also service areas towards Springbok (in the north), CPT (south), Mosselbaai (east) and Victoria West (northeast). Quick and easy local boxed bicycle transport to towns and places around the Namakwaland and Karoo. Yes, we, and they, do that, and more.

Netwerk Koeriers

Netwerk couriers is also a local boxed bicycle couriers service provider. The manual whatsapp-based quote and collect and pay system might not be for everyone. Including someone who always wants to use a pre-printed PDF waybill to ensure the bicycle goes to the right person.because the last thing you want is someone to write ‘George’ on a manual waybill and then have the bicycle sent to GRJ when it was destinated for another location. See, we think of all the small things. The get your boxed bicycle delivered safely.

Triptych Resources

Triptych was one of our first bicycle couriers service providers. Back when I found that it is cheaper to send bicycle through them with Triton. Rather than our brand new very own Triton account. Because at that point Triptych had volume, and a history, and we at bicycle couriers didn’t. but now we do. And we send many boxed bicycles across the country each month. I always though we’d make a great time, with our online marketing skills paired with their main routes deliveries.

Triton Express

Triton express is one of our very first bicycle couriers service providers. But they very much focus on main center deliveries. In which they excel. But their remote area deliveries tend to be expensive. So not a one-size-fits-all solution. And the manual waybills are something I prefer to avoid as far as possible. However, they are great for main routes. And they are quick, with a 48-72hr turnaround in many areas. But so far no set pricing, and it doesn’t always come cheap. Catch 22, because they don’t have a strong remote offering we cannot push all our volume there.

TMART Transmart

Transmart is our longstanding express bicycle couriers service provider. They gone through a change of location close to the CPT international airport. And have vehicles running overnight on our most important main routes. Which makes for a good non-flying by express boxed bicycle courier option. Even though it can sometimes get expensive. But we buy in bulk and pass on the savings to our clients. Which is what you’d expect from a boxed bicycle transport aggregator.

Logistical Solutionist

Logistical solutionist is another bicycle couriers service provider that use PP. And we just love booking on parcel perfect. Because it is such a quick and easy and intuitive boxed bicycle booking portal. In fact, this was one of our main requirements when evaluating new service providers. Truth be told, our logistical solutionist account hasn’t been used much at all. Maybe it is time to look into that again. And revisit some existing relationships. For sending boxed bicycles and more.

Gavic Express

Gavic express is a bicycle couriers service provider up north. And we have also used them for full truckloads of non-bicycle-specific transport as well. Also on parcel perfect. Which is why and how we came to them. And opened an account. And have been sending ad hoc boxed bicycles and other cargo in the north of the country. Which in includes the head office in JHB. And local offices in NLP and KLD. Which is Nelspruit and Klerksdorp. There we go. Now you know.

TCG The Courier Guys

TCG is the one bicycle couriers service providers where we have an account but have never used it before. The reason being is the recent price increases which made it uncompetitive. I’m pretty sure our standard boxed bicycle prices of 699 between main centers and 999 to remote areas will be hard to beat. If not costs 2x or 3x more on TCG. In fact, just this morning I got an example of where we send a bicycle for 999 where TCG cost was over R2700 for the same delivery.

Express Way

Expressway is a DBN based bicycle couriers service provider. Seeing as we do have a presence in DBN with a depot and warehouse for boxed bicycle deliveries we don’t have to make use of the expressway service that often. But when we do, for remote KZN deliveries, to places you haven’t even heard of yet – it works like a charm. The personal touch, but with many phone calls and manual follow-ups. Which is why bicycle couriers exist in the first place. So that you don’t have to do it yourself. We take care of your boxed bicycle delivery.

My Courier international

My Courier is one of our newer bicycle courier service providers. They have an alternative online boxed bicycle booking portal to parcel perfect. Which is the white-labelled Couriermate software. And it works like a charm. There is nothing more satisfying than to have booked all your boxed bicycle collections and then seeing the green tick boxes light up during the course of the day as the bikes are being collected. Keep up the good work. Now for automation.
