If purchasing or an approved balance forms part of the errand, set an exact spending limit and substitution rule. Require receipts. Never share an M-Pesa PIN, banking password, card PIN or account login with a rider.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Packaging_and_safe_transport\"><\/span>Packaging and safe transport<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The releasing shop, office or customer should package the item for the route. Seal parcels, label documents, protect fragile goods and separate food, medicine and chemicals. A motorcycle rider should not carry an oversized, leaking, dangerous or legally restricted load.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_happens_when_something_changes\"><\/span>What happens when something changes?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>A rider cannot renew prescriptions, provide medical advice or collect restricted medication without the pharmacy&#39;s required authorization.<\/p>\n<p>The safest response is to pause, contact the customer and record the instruction. A rider should not make an expensive substitution, accept a visibly wrong item or agree to new terms without approval.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pickup_and_delivery_confirmation\"><\/span>Pickup and delivery confirmation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Use a recorded request with the named pickup, intended recipient and current status. At collection, confirm the reference and visible package condition. At delivery, hand the item to the intended person or authorised receiving point. Keep the completion record for returns, business reconciliation or later questions.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently_asked_questions\"><\/span>Frequently asked questions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_I_add_another_stop_after_the_rider_starts\"><\/span>Can I add another stop after the rider starts?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Ask through the approved service channel. An added stop changes the route, time and potentially the charge, and may not be suitable for the items already being carried.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_the_rider_choose_products_for_me\"><\/span>Can the rider choose products for me?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Only within clear, pre-approved alternatives and budget limits.
