    first-mile courier FAQs

    Can you run this every weekday?

    Yes — recurring routes are priced as a fixed weekly rate, which is cheaper than booking ad-hoc every day.

    Do you handle booking-in slots?

    Yes. Give us the reference and slot and we plan the run backwards from it.

    What if volume spikes?

    We upsize the vehicle or add a second van for peak days. Tell us the forecast and we will hold capacity.
