The Good Stuff
Careful Packing
Customers specifically praise the handling and packing of fragile goods such as glass items and electronics.
Clear Guidance
One customer received prompt answers and regular updates while sending an important legal document to Tamil Nadu.
Reasonable Rates
Several reviews describe the rates as reasonable or competitive for the service received.
Friendly Staff
The Lulu Barsha branch is praised in multiple reviews for courteous, professional and friendly counter staff.
Safe Delivery
Some customers report receiving shipments on time and without damage, including two parcels delivered safely.
Tips for a Better Visit
Confirm Timelines. Get the promised delivery window in writing, especially for time-sensitive shipments; one 25-day promise became a delay of over 2.5 months.
Check Final Price. Ask the branch to confirm the final charge before collection, since one customer reported a sudden increase from the initial quote.
Ask About Insurance. Before sending household or fragile goods, ask what insurance covers and whether fragile items are excluded.
Inspect Delivery. Inspect the parcel before signing or accepting delivery where possible; one customer said they were not allowed to inspect it.
Clarify Doorstep. Confirm who performs the final delivery and whether heavy parcels reach your address, rather than assuming door-to-door service.

The Bottom Line
ABC Cargo & Courier at Lulu Hypermarket Al Barsha is a courier and cargo counter for international shipments, with reviews mentioning air cargo, express sea cargo and premium service. Customers also use it for fragile-item packing: glassware and electronics are specifically mentioned, and some reviewers received goods safely and without damage. The experience is notably inconsistent.
Positive reviews describe friendly branch staff, quick processing, reasonable rates and useful updates. One legal document sent from Dubai to Tamil Nadu arrived before the promised date, while another parcel reached India in five days. Air cargo to Kerala was also reported as arriving on time.
The main concern is reliability on longer or time-sensitive routes. Several customers describe 20–45-day promises turning into delays of 58 days, 70 days or more than two months, often with only a general “under customs clearance” explanation. Complaints also include sudden price increases, damaged crockery or luggage, weak claims handling and third-party delivery that required collection of heavy parcels.
If you use the service, confirm the final price, delivery window, insurance terms and doorstep arrangements in writing. For perishables, wedding items or valuables, the repeated delay and damage reports deserve serious consideration.
