Surface transport of Baggages within China

Bob, if you send your baggage by surface, it takes 7 to 10 days to reach Lanzhou. The cost is around CNY83.5. I suggest that you pay some extra money to insure your baggage. If you really want your baggage to arrive soon, you might use express service. It costs around CNY 123.

Would the suggested insurance be for damage or would it be for loss?
Can the suit case be sent as is or does it need to crated in a wooden box?

Bob, it's for both damage and loss. If there isn't any precious or fragile article, you can send your suitcase without in a wooden box. However, you shouldn't expect that the carrier will move your suitcase very carefully. It's possible that your suitcase might be contaminated or even broken.

Sally, is ur price current? Someone else said cny 30 per kg, which is quite different. Also ca the parcel method that u suggested be done postal outlet in Kunming.

Bob, I used China Post online calculating tool to calculate the price. You'd better go to the local post office and ask the staff to calculate the price. Please tell that you don't send your parcel by EMS. It won't be as expensive as CNY 30 per kg.
