New Delivery Specials for July 2010
live load comin thru!
We’ve had a real positive response in the past few months of delivery business and I thought I would give an update. Package and food card delivery are still in the lead for our urban service and we are creating new relationships all the time.
The bike delivery market is growing here in Portland, and companies like B-line, Pedalivery, and Portland Pedal Power are at the forefront. I saw a street car sheer off the rear-view mirror of a delivery truck as it was parked to close to the tracks while trying to make a delivery in North West Portland. This is a clear sign that the freight industry of the past has created vehicles to large and cumbersome to operate efficiently in the urban core. European cities with narrow streets and freight corridors have used bike/ trike power for generations and agree it is the best solution for rapid product delivery for what they call the final step of the trip, often the shortest and most local deliveries.
