Common Questions About Cold Chain Logistics
What does it cost, and can you share pricing?
Most customers pay the same or less than they did before. For courier, NFO, cold chain, and freight, our rates stay highly competitive. For parcel, our partnerships and shipping volume secure discounts we pass to you while funding proactive tracking and dedicated support. Contact us and our team will gladly share pricing.
Do I lose control by shipping parcel with Mercury?
You gain control. Our technology, integrations, and decades of experience give you real-time visibility and proactive management. We track packages closely, watching not only where they were last scanned but where they should be, and we keep you posted at every step so you never have to wonder.
Do you cover all regions, or only certain ones?
We are a global shipping company and can pick up and deliver anywhere in the world, at any size or temperature. Some providers focus on a single region, but because we work with all major airlines, we deliver consistent service worldwide without limiting you to one area.
Do you offer packaging, dry ice, or phase change materials?
Yes. We provide packaging solutions, including dry ice and PCMs. Our couriers can bring these materials when collecting your shipment, or we can send them to your location ahead of time so you are ready when pickup arrives.
What shipments does Mercury handle for healthcare companies?
We manage the full range of healthcare and life sciences shipments: pharmaceuticals, clinical trial materials, specimens and diagnostics, biologics, medical devices, and any temperature-sensitive product needing refrigerated, frozen, or cryogenic care. From urgent same-day runs to cold chain deliveries and routine freight, we handle the documentation and chain of custody you depend on.
How does Mercury keep shipments safe in transit?
Our team monitors every shipment proactively from pickup through delivery, checking not just the last scan but whether each one sits where it should at every stage. For temperature-sensitive freight, we add cold chain monitoring, catch potential delays early, and step in to keep things moving, sending updates so you always know the status.
