How we charge

We charge the higher of two weights.

Every parcel is weighed and measured at our warehouse. Big-but-light parcels are charged by size, small-but-heavy ones by the scale — whichever is higher, rounded up to the next kilo.

    Delivery conditions

    Door-to-door, with three exceptions

    Our local courier brings your parcels to your doorstep in most cases. In the three situations below, delivery is limited — and any extra cost is set and charged by the courier, not by PaoTui.

    Lift

    Can't fit into the lift

    Your items must fit into your building's lift as packed — crates and wooden frames included. If they can't, the courier offloads at ground floor and won't deliver to your doorstep. Uncrating and disposal of packaging aren't part of the service.

    Check your lift

    Courier may charge: extra manpower to carry up, where the courier offers it.

    Equipment

    Room for the equipment, not just the goods

    Heavy or crated items are moved with a pallet jack or trolley. The lift, doorways and route must fit the goods and the equipment together — it's not just the item's own measurements. If the equipment can't get through, the courier needs special handling.

    Courier may charge: special equipment or extra manpower for loading and unloading.

    Timing

    Malls & time-restricted addresses

    Malls, office towers and buildings with delivery-hour rules (loading bay after 10 pm only, security clearance, no daytime deliveries) can only be delivered at a specific timing — not on the courier's normal run.

    Courier may charge: after-hours delivery, re-delivery after a failed attempt, and storage while waiting for a slot.

    These charges are set by the local courier and paid directly to them. They never appear on your PaoTui invoice, and we can't confirm them in advance. If any of these applies to your address, tell us before we ship so you can make your own arrangements.

    Check my address on WhatsApp

    Lift check

    Will it fit your lift?

    The courier rides up with your item on a trolley, so the lift has to hold the item, the trolley and the courier together, not just the box. Enter the packed size and your lift's inside measurements.

    1Your item, as packed
    2Your lift, measured inside

    BCA's minimum for wheelchair-accessible lifts is 120 × 140 cm inside with a 90 cm door. Older blocks can be smaller, so measure yours.

    How to measure

    Door: the opening when both doors are fully open, side to side and floor to frame. Inside: wall to wall, and from the door to the back wall (to the handrail, if there is one).

    3How the courier moves it

    Picked by weight: up to 60 kg on a hand trolley, heavier on a platform trolley.

    Rough check only. The courier decides on the day.

    Delivery timing

    We can't promise a delivery date or time

    Once your parcels reach Singapore, a local courier handles the last mile. The courier plans the routes, so the delivery day and time depend on the driver's schedule and how many parcels they're carrying — in peak periods, deliveries often roll over to the next working day. We have no control over the courier's arrangements, so every transit time on this site is an estimate, not a guarantee.

    Need it by a certain date? Tell us before you order. For anything time-critical, an express courier is the safer choice.

    What can I ship?

    What you can ship.

    Always declare accurately — wrong declaration = S$10 relabelling fee.

    Valuables, jewellery, liquids, cosmetics, nail polish, batteries, electronics, food & beverages. Branded goods, medicines and anything that needs a Singapore permit: message us on WhatsApp first.

    Warehouse

    Our Guangzhou address.

    Put your personal Paotui code (PT-xxxx) at the end of the address: …君祥仓:PT-xxxx. In front of your name too if you like — Taobao may hide your name, so the warehouse reads the code from the address. Don't have one yet? WhatsApp us Address.

    Before you orderSet your address label like this

    Got your code from us? Type it here and every field below will include it.

    then type your code right after 君祥仓: — e.g. …君祥仓:PT-1000

    Phone · 手机号13789159662Ours, not yours: the courier calls it to deliver to our warehouse.
    Postcode · 邮编000000Not used in China — any is fine

    Important: Your code must go at the end of the address line — e.g. …君祥仓:PT-1000. Taobao can hide your name, so the warehouse matches parcels by this code.

    Common mix-ups before a parcel reaches us

    Checking the China courier updates (for example on 17TRACK)? Here’s what to look out for.

    The courier is sending it to another city or area

    Your parcel should be heading to Guangzhou, Baiyun district (广州 白云区). If it’s going somewhere else, the seller may have used an old or wrong address. Check the delivery address and your PT code on the order, ask the seller to correct it, and let us know on WhatsApp.

    It says “delivered” (签收), but we don’t show it yet

    Couriers often mark parcels as delivered in the evening, especially after 6 pm, and drop them at our warehouse the next working day. Please check again the next working day. Still not showing by then? WhatsApp us the tracking number.

    There are no courier updates at all

    The seller may have printed the label but not handed the parcel to the courier yet. Give it 1–2 days. If nothing moves after that, check with the seller.

    The recipient name is missing my PT code

    We match parcels to you by the PT code in the recipient name. If it’s missing, WhatsApp us the tracking number so we can find your parcel.
