Lab courier services are sensitive and require attention to handling instructions and delivery deadlines. If a lab courier delivery is late, the sample could be ruined—even worse, important patient care could be delayed. At Xcel Delivery Services, we are committed to being a one-stop shop for your lab courier needs and can partner with you to streamline the delivery process.
What makes lab courier services different from other delivery services?
No matter how good a delivery company is at their normal services, not all delivery companies can provide lab courier services. Lab courier services are specialized for a number of reasons. First, there are regulatory guidelines that have to be followed, particularly when transporting potentially infectious samples, to ensure safety. Samples must also be stored and handled in specific ways to ensure that they are not compromised or degraded. Frequently, lab specimens are time sensitive, and in some cases, delivery of the specimens to the appropriate lab has to happen urgently in order to get results that will inform critical patient care decisions. With so many different layers of potential complications, not every delivery service can meet the needs of customers who need a lab courier.
