05 — What you cannot send

A short, real list.

DTDC (and every air-network courier) prohibits these. Items most often misjudged on the Jodhpur → Raipur lane:

Banned outright

  • Liquids of any kind — perfumes, attars, oils, gels, hand sanitiser
  • Aerosols and pressurised cans
  • Cosmetics, nail polish, fragrance samples
  • Flammable solids and matches
  • Currency notes and gold/silver bullion
  • Lithium batteries above 100 Wh on the air leg

Common Raipur-lane misjudgements

  • Industrial chemicals and ore samples — even small quantities for testing are banned through courier. Mining-equipment mechanical samples are fine; chemicals and ores are not.
  • Aerosols — including hair spray, deodorants and lubricant cans.
  • Lithium batteries above 100 Wh on the air (express) leg — declare wattage at pickup.
  • Packed pickle / ghee from Jodhpur households — semi-liquid; not allowed.
06 — Tracking & proof of delivery

AWB on WhatsApp. Track on dtdc.in. POD when it lands.

The moment the parcel is booked into DTDC, we send you the AWB number on WhatsApp. Type it into the public tracker at dtdc.in any time. When delivery happens we forward the POD — signed slip or photo — within the hour.

07 — Three questions about this lane

Specific to Jodhpur → Raipur.

Realistic transit on the Jodhpur → Raipur lane?

Honest numbers: 3 working days on surface, 2 working days on express. Roughly 1,200 km via Ajmer → Bhopal → NH53 (Jabalpur → Bilaspur → Raipur). Express landing in 2 working days requires booking before 12 noon Jodhpur-end so the parcel catches the same-evening linehaul; after 4 PM it goes the next day and lands the morning after that.

We send mining-equipment samples to a buyer in Bhilai. How does that work?

For non-precious metal-and-equipment samples (gauges, drill-bit fragments, steel test pieces), DTDC will accept them with a commercial invoice and consignor KYC. Declared-value cover is sensible because default liability is limited. We don't accept industrial chemicals, ore samples or anything reactive — those need a specialised hazmat carrier. The Bhilai–Durg corridor is accessed via Raipur DTDC's onward feeder; we mark the buyer's plant gate, contact and KYC reference on the AWB.

Can you set a recurring weekly slot for our Sadar Bazaar Marwari traders?

Yes — most of our Sadar Bazaar / Pandri B2B accounts (the historic Jodhpur–Raipur Marwari trade axis) run on a Tuesday or Friday afternoon slot with a single monthly GST invoice. Tell us the rough weight per week — fabric, brassware, account books, ledger originals — and we set a fixed pickup time and a contracted rate. Repeat consignors get rate sheet on contract.
