The prices listed here are approximations and subject to change. For example, Silver Spring covers a large area from north to south, and so service to or from all parts of Silver Spring do not cost the same. Actual prices may also differ, depending on factors that make safe and efficient courier pickup and delivery more difficult or time consuming, such as weight, size, shape, or configuration of items, delays, weather, special requests, problems, or location within a zone or city. Extra charges may be added when long or numerous phone calls or emails are required to take or complete orders, or when questions are necessary because requests have been sent to us by email rather than the Best Messenger order-form. Attempts or cancellations are billed according to the work completed, and customers are responsible for attempted pickups and deliveries, re-deliveries, waiting time, and returns to sender.
