DAI Post is an Australian-owned company that for over 20 years has specialized in ecommerce, wholesale, international inbound parcel delivery. This carrier is available for merchants in Australia, New Zealand, the European Union, the UK, and the US. Once your order is picked and packed, DAI Post sends it to one of their hubs to be sorted, scanned, air freighted, and customs cleared at the destination.

Once cleared through customs, the parcel enters its final mile carrier network for local delivery direct to your door. Contact DAI Post to inquire about setting up an account!
