Shipping Market: transportation methods
Before talking specifically about how to track your order purchased on Mercado Livre, it is necessary to understand that there is more than one way to send shipments. Therefore, there are sellers and stores that have a partnership with the Post Office, others use carriers. There are still those merchants that offer both possibilities.
To check the shipping method, you can take a look at the listing description or ask the merchant. It is also worth mentioning that some sellers also allow the collection to be carried out at the agreed location before the sale and offer the possibility of combining other forms of delivery through Mercado Envios Full.
