Postal dept to launch packaging service soon

RANCHI: The postal department will soon start packaging service for its customers in post offices across the state. With this the residents can have packaging of goods at the post offices before they dispatch the parcel. According to sources, the department has been working on a plan to add packaging service for its customers. The people and business houses would not have to worry about packaging their goods before getting it parcelled. Postal department would soon open counters at post offices in which packaging of the goods would be done by postal staff. Postal department would charge very nominal rate for packaging, the sources said. This would take care of the problem of packaging of goods for customers. Chief postmaster general (Jharkhand circle) R R P Singh said the launch of packaging service would definitely help in pushing up the parcel business in post offices.
