The company Dnipro LLC The ForumDaily correspondent was assured that they met these requirements even before the pandemic, so they very quickly rebuilt themselves under the new living conditions.

Security

Send a parcel from the USA to Russia using Dnipro LLC you can without leaving your home. That is, you are not exposed to the risk of infection, and you also save gasoline and your time, since you do not need to go anywhere.

The sending process is as follows:

1. You collect the parcel at home and call the courier of the company Dnipro LLC.
2. The courier picks up the package and brings it to the warehouse, where the employees check the correctness of the packaging (if necessary, repack it) and prepare it for shipment.
3. The package is sent by sea or by air, depending on what you have chosen. By the way, you can send by sea what is prohibited when sent by air: perfume, equipment with batteries, etc.
4. Cargo tracking. This can be done on Online Dnipro LLC or "Russian Post".
5. In Russia, a courier can deliver it to the recipient, or he independently picks it up from a warehouse or post office.

This is a safe option, but if you want to unwind a little after sitting at home for a long time due to quarantine, then the parcel can be taken to the company's warehouse yourself.

Courier arrival service Dnipro LLC for sending parcels from the USA to Russia applies only to the states of New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Massachusetts and Rhode Island.

Andrey, one of the old clients Dnipro LLC, at the end of last year, moved from New York to Florida and told us that he had encountered problems in finding a new convenient service for sending parcels to Russia.

“I have a mom and a brother in Moscow. I managed to send them New Year's gifts from New York, through a courier Dnipro LLC... I really like this scheme ... I have diabetes, and going out into the city or visiting an office now creates too high a risk for me. And so I am safe, and the family with gifts. Plus prices at Dnipro LLC They’re also nice,” Andrey noted.

But he immediately added that the lack of a warehouse in Florida created problems for him.

“March 8 is a special holiday in our family. This day is my mother’s birthday, and this year was also her anniversary. In general, you can’t live without a gift. Back in January, I started looking for a Florida-based service to send her a surprise. And I was faced with either very high prices or uncertainty - many companies under quarantine conditions cannot guarantee anything either in terms of delivery time or the safety of the cargo. This didn’t suit me at all,” admitted Andrey.

Desperate, he decided to resort to the services of “word of mouth” - he called Dnipro LLCto find out if they had partners in Florida to send the package - after all, the company employs “our people”, and he was hoping for advice.

“They explained to me that they had found a solution to the problem of the limited area of ​​work of couriers. Parcels from all states can be sent to the warehouse Dnipro LLC via FedEx. They quickly told me how to set up my office and make a FedEx decal. Everything is quite simple there,” Andrey noted.

В Dnipro LLC they say that this is a new service, which is not even on the site yet, but it allows you to send parcels home through Dnipro LLC from any state in the United States. The company will teach you how to create your account on their websitewhere the FedEx API will be pulled. There you enter the data of the sender, recipient, weight and dimensions of the box - and immediately see how much it will cost to send the parcel from you to the warehouse. Dnipro LLC, and then you already draw up a declaration for the parcel, indicating the data of the recipient in Russia or another country, and Dnipro LLC will take care of her delivery there.

“The gift arrived on time! Mom is happy,” Andrey smiles.

In general, the level of security when sending parcels from the USA to Russia via Dnipro LLC can be rated at 5 with a minus. “Minus” for the fact that it is still impossible to find out about the partnership with FedEx on the site, but the company promises to fix it in the near future.

Value for money and reliability

В Dnipro LLC they say they offer reasonable savings. That is, they do not chase the lowest price on the market, forgetting about the quality of services. After all, sending a parcel cheaply, only to have it later lost or damaged, is not about saving money, but about irresponsible service. IN Dnipro LLC take for services an amount that allows you to ensure control of parcels at every step and give the client a guarantee that everything will arrive at the recipient on time and in the same condition in which it was sent.

Find out how much it costs to send a parcel from the USA to Russia or any other country via Dnipro LLC, you can use calculator on the company's website.

We decided to compare their prices with USPS and UPS.

If you send a 10 kg parcel from the USA to Russia using Dnipro LLCthen it will cost you about $ 89 by plane or $ 73 by sea.

If you use the services of USPS, then sending approximately the same parcel from the USA to Russia will cost a minimum at $ 180 (air).

On UPS, for sending a 10-kilogram parcel from New York to Moscow, you will generally have to pay about $ 700 (by air).

Of course, USPS and UPS are not the cheapest services, and some smaller companies can offer much lower prices. But the question is not only about price, but also about reliability. You can find hundreds of stories of lost or damaged packages on the Internet. And often they are associated precisely with the choice of the cheapest delivery service, which reduced prices but did not take care of quality. As they say, the miser pays twice.

USPS and UPS, like Dnipro LLC, on the market for a long time and managed to prove themselves well in terms of reliability.

For example, a company Dnipro LLC certified by TSA (Transporter Safety Administration) as an indirect air carrier, is a representative of IATA (International Air Transport Association) and has FMC and NVOCC licenses (NON-VESSEL OPERATING COMMON CARRIER), and now boasts the best price-reliability ratio in its market segment ...

A client of the company Svetlana from California believes that her peace of mind is worth the few dollars for which prices in Dnipro LLC higher than in little-known companies, from which you don't know what to expect.

“I often order goods for my brother in Russia from Amazon. They can be ordered directly to the warehouse address Dnipro LLC, they will pack everything there and send it. That is, I do not even see these goods, everything goes straight to my brother. This, of course, is very convenient, but I would never agree to such a scheme with another company, because anything can happen. And with Dnipro LLC everything is clear and reliable. I know for sure that everything will work out,” said Svetlana.

В Dnipro LLC explained in more detail what their client told. The company also offers services for purchasing goods from American online stores (eBay, Amazon and others). To do this, you need to register on Online Dnipro LLC, get an American address for ordering goods, and then it will be sent to any country according to the same scheme as your personal parcel.
