How do you charge for messenger
service?
Our rates depend on the mileage, the
urgency and the time of day.
What areas do you service besides Los
Angeles?
All of Southern California.  We also provide messenger service for all major cities
through our national courier service network.
Do you do court filings and process serving?
Yes.  We specialize in all "on demand" legal work.  Additionally we have a great list of all Southern California courts with valuable contact information.  We also can advance court fees when needed.
Are your courier drivers uniformed?
Yes.  We understand we're representing you, and therefore all our messenger staff is well groomed and provide service wearing A-1 Courier shirts.

Do I need to call ahead of time to place
a courier request?
No.  We operate an on demand messenger service.  All we ask is that you have your package ready when you call, because a messenger might be only a couple of minutes away.

Do you have trucks and motorcycle couriers?
Yes.  We have a variety of vehicles that match your courier needs. 

Do you have any size limits on package delivery?
Our courier service will handle any size package at any time.

Can you customize the billing by P.O. information?
Yes.  We can arrange your invoice to show chronological messenger services by date or by your billing reference.

How do clients order a messenger service online?
From any page on our site, you can click on "place order".

How often do you bill for messenger service?
We bill twice a month on the 1st and 16th,
but we can also bill weekly if you'd like.


What happens after hours if I need a messenger service? 
We always have a courier available to help
you 24 hours per day. 


Does your  courier service offer any guarantees? 
We want you to be 100% satisfied with our messenger and courier service, and if you're not, for any reason, we offer a full refund.

Do you offer discounts if you have more than one package going out?
Yes.  One of the most unique benefits of A-1 Courier is that we route all deliveries that
are going the same direction with the same messenger.


How does a messenger find so many different addresses?
Each courier has a Thomas Guide and some prefer using GPS systems.  Additionally, once
a courier realizes the numbering system for
Los Angeles addresses, it gets pretty easy.

If a client needs directions around Los Angeles, can you help?
Absolutely.  In fact we offer great short cuts and feel free to call us anytime.  It's sometimes hard, but we pry any secret we can from our couriers.

What's the difference between regular, shuttle and rush messenger service?
Our services are described here.  They're geared towards what works for you, not our ease of dispatch.

Do your drivers have to pass a route
test regarding the Los Angeles area?

Yes.  We have a sample route test that our messengers have to take.  Additionally our prospective couriers have to also take a map test, proving they know how to look up all
Los Angeles and Orange County addresses.

Can I pay my invoices with a credit card?
Yes.  Simply call us at 310-450-9000 and we'll process the payment for you.  Or you can have a monthly payment scheduled for all your messenger services.

Can you email us after your messenger service has delivered?
Yes.  A-1 Courier offers email confirmations when our courier service has delivered your package.  This service feature needs to be
set up -- so just call us at 310-450-9000
and we'll take care of the rest.


Do you use a messenger service often?

 


If you have two or more packages going to the same vicinity, unlike our competitors, who charge the full amount on each run, A-1 Courier charges point to point.  It saves lots of money!
