Biteship provides pickup services that can be done at various types of locations, both for personal and business deliveries. However, there are some requirements that must be met to ensure the pickup can be carried out smoothly. This article will explain the types of locations eligible for pickup by Biteship couriers.
Types of Locations Eligible for Pickup
1. Private Residence
Biteship supports pickups at private home addresses. Make sure the location is easily accessible by the courier and does not have access issues such as strict security or restricted entry.
2. Office or Business Premises
For businesses, pickups can be done at offices or business locations, such as shops, warehouses, or distribution centers. Ensure the business location has a clear address and contact information that can be reached if the courier needs assistance.
3. Apartment or Multi-Storey Building
If the pickup location is in an apartment or multi-storey building, provide additional information such as floor number or building name to facilitate the courier. You can also arrange for the pickup location to be at the reception area or lobby if pickup inside the unit is not possible.
4. Warehouse or Logistics Facility
Biteship supports pickups from warehouses or logistics facilities with easy access for couriers. For large warehouses, include additional information such as pickup zone number if needed.

Some public locations, such as shopping centers or other public places, may require special permission for pickups. Make sure you have the necessary permits or contacts at the location to assist the courier during pickup.
Things to Consider When Choosing a Pickup Location

• Additional Instructions: If the location is difficult to reach or located in a specific area, provide additional instructions in the Biteship dashboard to help the courier find the location.
• Location Operating Hours: Make sure the pickup location is open or available at the scheduled pickup time. This is especially important for pickups at offices or business locations.
