How to Track JRS Express Package
You may check the delivery status of your package through the JRS Express website. The JRS Express tracker is on the top portion of the homepage, or you can go to the Track Shipment page at www.jrs-express.com/tracking.
To track your package, simply enter your tracking number and BC then click the Track button. The tracking number, also called airbill number, is a six-digit number found on the upper right corner of your JRS Express official receipt. You can also find there the three-digit BC number.
If the status on the JRS Express tracker doesn’t get updated, you may inquire through the JRS Express Facebook page (www.facebook.com/JRS.Express.OfficialFanPage). When sending a message requesting for your delivery status, indicate your airbill number, the date the package was sent, recipient’s/consignee’s name, and complete address.
JRS Express Review
JRS Express is not as technologically advanced as GrabExpress, Lalamove, Mr. Speedy, Transportify, and other delivery apps. Currently, it doesn’t have an online delivery platform. Even its pickup service has to be availed the traditional way and not online (But at least, it’s free!). The only thing you can do online is to locate JRS Express branches and use its tracker to check your package status.
This makes JRS Express services comparable to traditional couriers like LBC Express and J&T Express more than the newer app-based delivery platforms.
However, JRS Express is the best choice if you’re looking for a reliable courier that can ship your items fast. The 60-year-old express delivery company is known for its on-time delivery. In fact, customers commend JRS on its Facebook page because they received their packages either on time or earlier than the promised delivery time.
