Door-to-Door International Shipping

August 4, 2026ยท5 min readยทParcelGo Team

International shipping can be intimidating for individuals and small businesses. From managing freight pick ups to navigating customs brokers and local deliveries, there are many opportunities for delays. Here is how **door-to-door international shipping** simplifies the process by consolidating all stages under a single service.

What is Door-to-Door Shipping?

Door-to-door shipping means the courier company takes custody of your parcel at your doorstep (origin address) and remains responsible for it throughout transit, customs clearance, and final delivery at the receiver's doorstep (destination address).

How Customs Clearance is Managed

In door-to-door shipping, the courier handles the custom brokerage processing. They prepare the customs entry declarations and process standard duty clearances. If duties are assessed, the courier bills the receiver before delivery (or the shipper, if specified).
