SAFETY & SPECIALIZED HANDLING
Confidence starts before the pickup.
Clear instructions, trained people, and defined handoffs help your delivery team know what to do—and who to contact when something changes.
AGREE ON THE DETAILS
The package matters.
The process matters, too.
Healthcare deliveries can involve sensitive information, specific handling needs, and strict receiving requirements. DCS works with your team to define the procedures that apply to your delivery program.
Ask us to review the relevant training, documentation, and service requirements for your shipment type. Scope and requirements are confirmed before service begins.

CHAIN OF CUSTODY
Make each handoff clear.
Define the order → Confirm pickup → Follow the movement → Verify the recipient → Record delivery
Your program’s verification and documentation steps are agreed during setup.
Specialized handling starts with a conversation.
Temperature-sensitive shipments
Share the required temperature range, packaging, monitoring, and documentation needs. We will confirm the supported handling approach and responsibilities for the proposed service.
Sensitive information
Discuss how shipment information is shared and accessed, and the privacy requirements that apply to your workflow.
Regulated or specialized materials
Provide the shipment classification, packaging details, and any applicable transport requirements. Acceptance and service availability must be confirmed with DCS.
Exceptions & escalation
Agree on who to call, what to document, and how to handle unsuccessful deliveries, damaged packaging, or changes to the receiving location.
