Your Action Plan: Schedule Smart Deliveries
Here’s how to use the spreadsheet to plan your shipments effectively:
Step 1: Consult the Spreadsheet Before You Buy
Before making your purchases with a shopping agent, check the spreadsheet for the current shipping outlook. Plan to have your items arrive at the LoveGoBuy warehouse 2-3 weeks before
Step 2: Plan for the "Shoulder Season"
Schedule your deliveries for "shoulder seasons"—the periods just before or after major holidays. For example, shipping in mid-November or early January often avoids the worst of the Christmas rush.
Step 3: Consolidate Packages Strategically
Use LoveGoBuy's package consolidation service. Sending one larger parcel is often more efficient and trackable than multiple small ones, especially when logistics networks are stressed.
Step 4: Communicate with Your Logistics Assistant
Share your timeline concerns with your LoveGoBuy agent. They can provide customized advice based on your destination country and the items you've purchased, suggesting the optimal time to ship.
