SkyNet Shop & SkyNet PUDO Counters
Bring It. Ship It. Collect It.
Wherever you are in South Africa, there’s a SkyNet close by. Between our own SkyNet Shop stores and our nationwide network of SkyNet PUDO counters, sending and collecting a parcel is never far from home.
SkyNet Worldwide Express gets parcels moving through two out-of-home networks: our own SkyNet Shop stores, and the wider SkyNet PUDO counter network hosted in partner businesses across the country. Both let you drop off, collect, and return parcels without waiting in for a courier – here’s how they differ.
SkyNet Shop - Our Own Retail Stores
SkyNet Shop locations are physical retail stores fully owned and operated by SkyNet, built around a hub-and-spoke model that keeps last-mile delivery moving efficiently in and out of major centres.
– Located in major urban centres and regional towns
– Positioned in high-foot-traffic areas for easy access
– Book and pay for a new shipment in-store by card
– Staffed and run to SkyNet’s own service standards
– Also function as a full PUDO point for collections, drop-offs

How Sending A Parcel Works
Bring It
Walk into any SkyNet Shop and our staff will book the shipment for you there and then, so you can pay and go. Or book ahead at SkyNetOnline.co.za and choose your nearest SkyNet Shop or SkyNet PUDO counter as your drop-off point — just bring your parcel in with the waybill reference number from your confirmation email.
Ship It
Counter staff log the parcel against your booking, label it, and mark it ready for collection. A SkyNet driver picks it up on the same schedule as any other SkyNet shipment – same business day if handed in before 3:00 PM, next business day if after.
Collect It
SkyNet ships it anywhere in South Africa or to any of 190+ countries worldwide. The recipient collects it at a counter near them, or has it delivered straight to their door.
