Jim and Judi Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 (edited) I've never needed this before but need to receive from the States and return via overnight mail. Can this be done reliably? Who? How? Edited June 6, 2016 by Jim and Judi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hil Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 (edited) I have used DHL in David two times. Once for Miami and once for Austin,Tx. Both times the package arrived within 24hrs. They tell you within two days but usually a package makes it there within 24 hrs. My packages always left david the same day and usually on the first available flight out of Panama. I don't know about the overnight shipping. Good tracking on the computer also. Edited June 7, 2016 by Hil 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hil Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 Just use the DHL office for pickup and they won't have to look for your house. The addresses are not good here. Tell them to call you from the David DHL office. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith Woolford Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 (edited) How do you think Domino's works? Expats may find those directions peculiar, but couriers and delivery people can sort them out. We've had both DHL and FedEX home deliver here. Edited June 7, 2016 by Keith Woolford Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I lived in Africa, with no addresses, directions were a description of miles of dirt road and paths through the bush. This is waaay better Edited June 7, 2016 by Jim and Judi 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
