Local delivery · English communication
Arrange an Istanbul pickup without having to relay delivery instructions in Turkish. Describe the item and the two locations in English, and we will review the route, handover contacts and timing with you.
A street address alone may not tell a courier where to meet the sender. Add a hotel reception, office floor or building entrance where relevant. Tell us whether the person booking is also the sender. For a guest delivery, the reception needs enough information to identify the recipient, and permission to release the item should be agreed before collection.
You can coordinate the task from home while a hotel, colleague or shop handles the local handover. Keep one contact available at each end and tell us who can approve a change if the recipient is delayed. Send the deadline in Istanbul local time, particularly when you are messaging from another European time zone.
Documents, a shopping bag and a bulky suitcase have different transport needs. Describe size, weight and any fragile contents so the proposed vehicle and handling suit the task. A courier request does not automatically include purchasing goods, storing luggage or shipping abroad. Mention those requirements in your first message if they are part of the job.
For an office-to-office envelope, use the office courier details. If you need an authorised document collected from an institution, read the official document service. Travellers arranging suitcase transport should use the airport luggage page. Each explains the practical details needed to assess that particular handover.
