Routed and Scheduled Deliveries
If you deliver product to a standard group of customers or within a specific geographic
area, Delivery Specialists can help you more efficiently and effectively distribute
your product. With routed (or scheduled) delivery, we create a customized distribution
plan by evaluating your customers, their locations, product type and delivery timeframe.
Delivery Specialists will manage the distribution of your product from your warehouse,
or other location, directly to your customer.
Our drivers are dedicated to your routes and your product. Customers appreciate
the peace-of-mind and convenience of getting their daily deliveries from the same
person. Our drivers are professionally attired and trained on how to work with your
customers and their specific needs.
Routed delivery is more efficient because:
- Routes are pre-planned to maximize efficiency.
- Drivers can pick up and return items.
- Drivers are trained to deal with your customers' specific needs.
If you are moving a significant amount of product and require delivery to multiple
locations on a daily basis— we can help. With Delivery Specialists, you get the
reliability of a dedicated fleet to meet your needs, and we work with you as a team
to manage your deliveries. Your product is delivered faster than an overnight service,
and since the product is hand-carried, no special packaging or individual forms
are required.
Just let us know what you need delivered, where and when—and we'll handle the rest.
Technology Advantage
There is a reason that Delivery Specialists considers itself a Technology company:
we have invested significantly in a state-of-the-art proof of delivery (POD) solution,
built with industry leading hardware and software, that exceeds customer expectations.
Our drivers carry dedicated handheld devices that are used to scan packages at each
location in the custody chain (Receive, Load, Deliver and Return), and then capture
recipient signatures and transmit them real-time to our system using the highest-quality
wireless network available. Built-in safeguards ensure that packages are not mis-delivered
or left on the dock.
Because our handhelds stay connected to the internet to transmit our data, customer
service personnel can have access to POD information in real-time, within seconds
of the delivery being completed. We are fully compatible with industry standard
EDI requirements, and are ready to work with IT departments to create a system link
that facilitates the automatic transmission of Advanced Shipment Notices to our
system, and the real-time, or batched, return of proof of delivery data.
Delivery Specialists has full-time, dedicated support staff that ensure that our
handhelds stay running and that the data flows smoothly. We carefully and thoughtfully
train our drivers and managers to maximize the effectiveness of our technology and
processes. We provide standard OS&D reporting, and can create customized reports
to facilitate efficient business analysis.
Warehousing Services
If you are new to distribution, we can set up and manage your warehouse in the geographic
area you require. We determine how to most efficiently warehouse and distribute
your product. Just send the addresses for your daily deliveries, and we will package
and distribute your product.
Dedicated Drivers
Some companies may have daily delivery needs or require multiple regular deliveries
in a set geographic area—but not necessarily to the same customers. We can provide
the required number of dedicated drivers and trucks to pick up your product and
deliver it where and when you need it, that day.
