In the wake of looting and rioting in the areas of KZN and JHB, orders to KZN will be held back until the couriers are up and running again and things have settled down.

Currently, the Courier Guy has been hit in KZN and may take a while before they are up and running again.

“In a notice on its website, The Courier Guy said it was running on skeleton staff at kiosks and branches in KwaZulu-Natal for the sake of their safety.

“Please note that all office equipment was also stolen so communication with the Durban branch is very limited,” the company said.

The tweet below shows the scene at the depot after the looting.

The Courier Guy is a member of the South African Express Parcels Association (Saepa).

Saepa CEO Garry Marshall told MyBroadband it could take that depot around a month to be back up and running.

In the broader picture, Marshall said the situation was serious.

“Durban is an absolute mess, many of our members have had their places burnt, certainly looted,” he stated.”
