Courier delivery in Astana covers documents and correspondence, parcels and small cargo, and orders for buyers. A courier collects the shipment at the sender’s address and hands it to the recipient in person, recording the handover. Companies are set up with daily scheduled pickup; for one off tasks a courier is booked on request.

What city courier delivery includes
Pickup at the address. The courier arrives at the agreed time, accepts the shipment and issues a waybill. There is no need to visit our office: documents and parcels are handed over on site.
Delivery across the city. The shipment moves on a courier route. Astana stretches along the river, and addresses on different banks fall into different route segments, so handover times are planned with the location of the points in mind.
Handover to the recipient. The shipment is given to the recipient or an authorized employee in person and the delivery is recorded. If the recipient is absent, a repeat attempt is agreed.
Return leg. Signed contracts and acts are returned to the sender. Companies that need originals signed by a counterparty use this arrangement.
Shipment types within the city
Couriers in Astana carry documents, small cargo and orders for buyers, each with its own packaging and handover requirements. The main options are set out below.
| Shipment type | What it includes | Specifics |
|---|---|---|
| Documents and correspondence | Pickup, delivery, recorded handover | Signed copies can be returned |
| Parcels and small cargo | Delivery of boxes and small shipments | Packaging that withstands transport is required |
| Orders for buyers | Handover, payment collection, try on and returns | Money is transferred to the seller under contract |
| Same day delivery | Dedicated trip outside the general route | Used when the handover deadline is fixed |
| Shipment to another city | Pickup in Astana and handover to an intercity run | Delivery to the recipient address in another city |
City delivery differs from intercity in where the courier’s work ends: within Astana the courier covers the whole route, while for a shipment to another city the courier hands it to a run and delivery at the destination is performed by a local representative. Companies with a flow of shipments find scheduled pickup more convenient: the courier arrives at a set time and takes everything collected during the day.
What affects delivery time
Several factors matter before booking. Within the city, timing is driven by the time of the request, the location of the addresses and the access policy at the recipient’s building.
| Parameter | How it affects delivery | What to clarify in advance |
|---|---|---|
| Time of the request | Determines whether the shipment joins the current route | The cut off time for a same day courier |
| Location of addresses | Different banks fall into different route segments | District and a landmark for the courier |
| Building access policy | Pass offices delay the handover | Whether a pass is needed and in whose name |
| Recipient availability | Determines whether the first attempt succeeds | Phone number and a convenient time window |
| Shipment type | Orders with payment collection take longer | Payment form and try on rules |
In Astana the relative position of the addresses affects timing noticeably: a shipment crossing from one bank to the other travels a longer route than one handed over within a single district. The second factor is the access policy in government buildings and business centers: without a pre arranged pass the courier does not reach the recipient and the handover moves.
Who uses courier delivery
Companies with document flow. Transfer of contracts, invoices and acts to counterparties, submission of documents to organizations, with signed copies returned.
Online stores. Delivery of orders to buyers across the city with payment collection and the option to return items.
Service companies. Handing small components and cargo to sites and technicians.
Private senders. Parcels and documents delivered to an addressee within the city without visiting our office.
How to prepare a shipment
Pack the contents. Documents go in an envelope; parcels need packaging that withstands transport. Fragile items require rigid packaging.
Describe the contents. The composition is recorded at booking: insurance terms and dispute resolution depend on it.
Provide recipient details. Address with office number, name, phone and a convenient time reduce the number of repeat trips.
Handle access in advance. For guarded buildings a pass is arranged beforehand or a contact person at reception is named.
- State the deadline for handing over the shipment.
- Clarify whether return documents need to be collected.
- Decide who pays for the delivery.
- For buyer orders, indicate whether try on is allowed.
- Give notice of valuable or fragile contents.
What determines delivery terms
Urgency. Delivery on a general route and a dedicated trip outside it are quoted differently.
Location of addresses. A handover within one district and a route between banks differ in the courier’s working time.
Size of the contents. Documents and small parcels are handled differently from bulky shipments.
Regularity and payment. Daily pickup under a contract and work with payment collection are agreed separately. Final terms are set once the parameters are confirmed.
How the courier service works
1. Request
Pickup and delivery addresses, the nature of the contents and the required timing are provided. Contract clients receive a courier on schedule without an individual request.
2. Pickup of the shipment
The courier accepts the shipment at the address and issues a waybill, recording the contents and the payment arrangement.
3. Delivery across the city
The shipment moves on a route or, for urgent tasks, on a dedicated trip. The status is available by waybill number.
4. Handover and confirmation
The courier hands over the shipment, collects payment if required and takes back the return documents. The sender receives proof of delivery.
Delivering to government buildings
A frequent task in the capital. Astana concentrates government bodies and agencies, so a significant share of courier shipments goes to administrative buildings. Access there is stricter than in a business center: a pass is arranged through a pass office and entry without one is not possible.
Submission through the registry office. Documents are often accepted not by a named employee but through the organization’s registry office, where an acknowledgment of receipt is stamped. If such a stamp is required, this should be stated when the request is placed.
How to plan the handover. Give the recipient’s department, a contact person and the receiving hours: administrative offices accept documents during limited windows, and a courier arriving outside them has to return.
Why companies choose our courier service

Frequently asked questions
How do I book a courier in Astana
Place a request by phone, WhatsApp or through the form on the site, giving the pickup address, the recipient address and the nature of the contents. The courier arrives at the agreed time and issues the waybill on the spot. Companies with a steady flow are set up with daily pickup, so a separate request is not needed each time.
Do you deliver to both banks
Yes, delivery covers the whole city. Addresses on different banks fall into different segments of the route, so it helps to name the district and a landmark when booking: this allows the sequence of stops to be planned and the handover time to be given more precisely.
Can documents be submitted to a government office
Yes, the courier delivers documents to the organization’s address and hands them to an authorized employee or through the registry office. For buildings with an access policy a pass is arranged in the courier’s name in advance. If a stamped acknowledgment of receipt is required, this should be stated when the request is placed.
How does delivery of buyer orders work
The courier hands the order to the buyer, collects payment where required and transfers it to the seller under the terms set out in the contract. Try on and partial acceptance are available, where the buyer takes only some of the items. Transfer terms and timing are recorded before the service starts.
Is scheduled pickup available
Yes, companies can arrange for a courier to arrive daily at a set time and take everything collected during the day: documents, parcels and buyer orders. The schedule, scope of services and settlement arrangements are fixed in a contract, which simplifies accounting.
Can a parcel be sent from Astana to another city
Yes, the courier collects the shipment in Astana and hands it to an intercity run. Delivery to the recipient’s address in the destination city is performed by a local representative. Timing depends on the route and on when the shipment is handed to the next departure.
