Bulk / Multi-Piece Shipping: Sending several cartons as one consignment (one AWB, multiple pieces) instead of separate parcels — cheaper and keeps the order together.
Why you care: Multi-piece bookings avoid the classic failure where 3 of 4 cartons deliver and the customer waits.
In practice: 5-carton order → one MPS booking → all five track and deliver together, billed on total weight.
Every Indian courier, inside your store. An order comes in,
we quote every connected carrier on the order page — you book the best rate, hyperlocal or national.
