System labels are generated when you create an order. You can print this out on a thermal label or an A4 page if you do not have a label printer. Receipts are available online, with the wallet system that will update automatically after an order is created and processed.

Kindly provide us with accurate collection and delivery details when creating your order – specify the street, complex or unit, suburb, city and postal code. Please print the information on an A4 sheet so that we can easily attach it to your parcel and speed up the delivery process. Remember to inform your client (the recipient) of the estimated delivery date to avoid any back and forth.

Ideally, the item should be packed in a box or sleeve that is the correct size – and not larger than what is required. Please ensure that the package is sealed and secure to withstand normal handling, and that the item inside is protected if needed – for instance, using bubble wrap for fragile items or protective envelopes for special documents.

All packaging materials are for your own account. However, should your order exceed 50 parcels per day, we supply flyer bags (large, extra-large, A2 and XXL), printable thermal labels, and a label printer.

Large: 40x30 cm, Extra Large: 50x38, A2 = 60x42, XXL = 65x55

To calculate the volumetric dimensions of your parcel, please use the following formula: WIDTH x HEIGHT x LENGTH = VOLUME. Please note that Buffalo International charges based on whichever weight is greater – the actual weight or the volume weight.

If we fail to deliver due to an incorrect address or contact details, you will be charged for a second delivery. To prevent your parcel from being returned, kindly confirm the details with your customer before sending.

No, a proof of delivery is required to be signed by the receiver. Please note that, as the client, you will be held liable for the payment of the collection/delivery if the address was incorrect, or if the recipient was not able to receive the parcel at the time of delivery and the parcel must be returned or rescheduled.

All parcels should be moving constantly. Should you notice your parcel has no movement, kindly contact our support team via email at sales@bufflogistics.co.za.

All claims must be sent to Buffalo International via email to sales@bufflogistics.co.za.

Claims for damaged parcels must be submitted to Buffalo International within 24 hours from the date of delivery and lost parcel claims must be submitted within 7 days. Please note that a consignment that has sustained internal damage with no external signs of damage is due to poor internal packaging, and no claims of this nature are accepted. However, if the consignment’s external package is damaged, then the receiver will have to sign for the consignment as “damaged”.

We require an invoice for the replacement cost of items (not the resale value) along with the details and proof of loss/damage. Please contact our support team for more details at sales@buffalologistics.co.za

Your account will be credited with the claim amount.
