I need to get a used 27 inch monitor shipped from Bangalore to Ahmedabad, anyone know good courier services that provide door-to-door pickup and drop?

Used Delhivery Direct couple of times, provided good service https://www.delhivery.com/direct/app/

On the same boat. Vetting options to bring my monitor back from hometown. @quiet-fountain-69039 — did you send a monitor through Delhivery? How did you pack the box? Do they insure the package, since the monitor would usually be a high value shipment.

I have only sent small electronic items like keyboards and mouse to friends, I keep original packaging boxes so use them for shipping. They have option to declare value of shipment and based on that they provide insurance

IIRC delhivery direct allows maximum package of 10kgs

Lesson learnt: Never send a monitor via Delhivery. I have sent an email for claiming the insurance but I doubt they’ll do anything. Their terms are very strict.

@mysterious-laptop-18288 yikes! that’s horrible. Did Delhivery mention the insurance terms before you shipped it? In their T&C, they mention they can’t carry LCDs, LEDs etc.

Those T&C are for delhivery express I believe, this was a different one. But no they didn’t mention anything before shipping it.

From the link that you shared, the terms don’t mention Delhivery Express in the prohibitions or maybe I am missing something.

The consignor shall not book any consignment containing any of the following nor can Delhivery knowingly carry any of the following items - fragile items, highly perishable food items, LEDs, LCDs, plasma, OLED and any kind of television screens, liquid product, livestock, perishables, live plants, flammable items (firecrackers, oil cans, adhesives, paint cans), explosives (arms, ammunition, fireworks, flares, gunpowder, airbag inflators), fire extinguishers, platinum, gold, silver, artificial jewelry, gem, precious, semi-precious metals or stones in any form including bricks, alcohol/tobacco/ medicines/drugs/poisonous goods, toxic and infectious items, high capacity batteries such as car batteries, generator batteries, machinery parts containing oil, grease, fuel or batteries, corrosive items (acids, chemicals), radioactive material, Indian postal articles such as stamps and articles like coins, banknotes, currency notes, Sodexo or securities of any kind payable to bearer, traveler's cheques, gambling devices, lottery tickets, pornographic material, dry ice used for packaging or temperature control and other items considered contraband under the Indian Postal law. Further, consignors will not hand over any secure documents including but not restricted to passport, Aadhar Cards, bank statements, credit cards, debit cards, bank cheques and / or currency items, passports amongst other documents. Delhivery is not licensed to carry the above mentioned products/ documents and shall have no liability in such cases if such product is handed over without the consent of Delhivery for delivery by the consignor.

I might have misunderstood then. Even so, they should’ve decline the shipment which would’ve cost me loss of < 2K instead of > 30K INR.
