Local / Point-to-Point Couriers

Local or Point-to-Point couriers are freight companies which are contracted to specifically deliver one or more items from one specific point, directly to a second specific point, normally within a short delivery window of only a few hours.

Local couriers are often over-looked by businesses as they are seen as an expensive option of moving something from A to B when it is urgent. Whilst this is one of the service options, a local courier in some instances can be lower cost than using a standard overnight express freight provider, and it is a much quicker service.

The local courier is especially cost effective for larger consignments such as one or more pallets, or a large number of cartons. The courier provider can also handle more complex delivery requirements due to the ability to relay complex instruction on a consignment level basis, and the ability to hold the driver for delays or unloading assistance.

Cost Benefits

A freight solution by EFS will consider all carrier options available including local couriers. Upfront rate schedules are provided for all carriers, allowing customers to see exact weight or consignment size breaks where the courier may be utilised.

When moving large loads locally such as one or more pallets, a local couier could be up to fifty to seventy percent cheaper than an express carrier literally saving thousands of dollard per year, all coupled with fast delivery times, and simple consolidated invoicing from Exalt.
