What this help covers

This help may concern pickups and drop-offs of small volume, limited value and no particular difficulty: parcels, clothing, small equipment, non-sensitive mail, an already prepared order, an item to return, a forgotten object or a simple errand. The route, opening hours, address, contact person, payment method, possible authorization and proof of handover must be clarified before travelling. The aim is to avoid a tiring or complicated trip for the person concerned, without making decisions on their behalf, without opening their documents or parcels, without handling sensitive information unnecessarily and without accepting a responsibility that should belong to a specialized professional.

Preferred providers

Before the intervention

• Clarify precisely the purpose of the errand: pickup, drop-off, return, handover to a person, visit to a service point or simple transport of a small object.
• Check the exact address, opening hours, contact person, order number, name to give and handover conditions.
• Confirm the consent of the person concerned and the authorization of the shop, pharmacy, service or recipient when necessary.
• Plan a secure payment method: direct payment, invoice, payment already made or agreed solution without sharing a code, bank card, password or personal access.
• Assess weight, volume, fragility, value, confidentiality, temperature needs and the possibility of transporting the object without risk.
• Define in advance what should be done if an item is missing, a location is closed, handover is refused, a substitution is offered or unexpected information is given.
• Limit photos, messages and receipts to useful elements, with the person’s agreement, without sharing medical, financial or private information.
• Refuse the errand if it involves urgency, medical judgement, a financial decision, a sensitive document, a regulated object or a responsibility that goes beyond simple practical help.
