- Right-sized, sturdy box with no empty space

How Pricing and Transit Work on Saran to Chennai

- Service level: surface/economy (3–5 business days) is cheaper; express (2–3 business days) costs more for speed.
- Destination pincode in Chennai: interior or harder-to-serve pincodes can add a day and a small surcharge.
