Changes to home delivery rates and delivery times

Manual home delivery is activated by default in your store. When a customer places an order using this delivery method, you will then need to proceed with the manualdispatch of the order: prepare the order, pack it, edit the label with its postage directly on the Colissimo website or with the carrier of your choice, then drop it off at the post office. To go one step further and automate delivery logistics, useful when you have several orders a day, you can activate home delivery with Colissimo.

Manual home delivery is only available for deliveries in mainland France.
