Final Mile
Delivery Service Examples
Standard Parcel Delivery: This is the most common form of final mile delivery, where small to medium packages are delivered directly to the customer’s doorstep. It typically involves local courier services or national postal services that handle the bulk of consumer online purchases. This method is favored for its straightforwardness and wide coverage area.
White Glove Services: This premium service includes not just delivery but also the installation and setup of products, as well as the removal of old items and packaging materials. White glove services are ideal for high-end products, electronics, large appliances, or furniture that require careful handling and extra setup effort.
Curbside Delivery: Popular with food delivery and retail sectors, curbside delivery allows customers to stay in their cars while goods are brought out to them. This method minimizes contact and provides a convenient option for both the customer and the retailer, enhancing the efficiency of pickup services.
Same-Day Delivery: Offering an expedited service, same-day delivery ensures that customers receive their products on the same day the order is placed. This method is crucial for urgent deliveries and is highly valued by customers who need items quickly, such as last-minute gifts, essential goods, or important business supplies.
Scheduled Delivery: This method allows customers to choose a specific date and time for their delivery, giving them control over when they receive their items. Scheduled delivery is especially beneficial for receiving large or high-value items when the recipient needs to ensure they are available to receive the goods.
Bicycle Courier: In urban areas, where traffic congestion can delay vehicle deliveries, bicycle couriers offer a swift and eco-friendly alternative. This method is effective for small parcel deliveries over short distances and helps reduce carbon emissions while promoting faster delivery times.
