Courier Delivery FAQ
What to know about booking, delivery options, pricing, and tracking.
Your Questions, Answered
Where do you deliver?
We serve Washington DC, Maryland, and Northern Virginia, with direct interstate delivery to cities across the East Coast. Send us the pickup and delivery addresses and dispatch will confirm coverage for your route.
How quickly can a courier pick up?
For most local same-day requests, pickup is available within an hour after confirmation. Rush, scheduled, overnight, weekend, and holiday deliveries are also available.
How is the price calculated?
The estimate depends on approximate distance, vehicle, shipment and additional stops. The free calculator uses address locations with an allowance for the route; actual road distance may differ. The starting minimum is $95. Return trips and extra stops affect the estimate, and a manager confirms the final total before pickup.
Do I need a customer account?
No account is required to send a delivery request. Businesses with regular routes can request an account for tailored service and invoicing arrangements.
Can I schedule several stops or a recurring route?
Yes. Build a route with up to 10 pickup or delivery stops, or send your route spreadsheet. Include your preferred dates and time windows so dispatch can arrange a recurring schedule.
What kinds of shipments do you handle?
We carry documents, parcels, medical specimens and supplies, pharmacy items, legal filings, embassy documents, hotel luggage, equipment, and business materials. Describe unusual, fragile, or oversized items before booking.
Do you transport medical specimens?
Yes. Our team supports medical and laboratory deliveries with trained handling, temperature requirements where specified, and documented chain of custody. Include your handling protocol in the request.
Which vehicles are available?
Sedans are suitable for envelopes and smaller parcels. Cargo vans handle larger or higher-volume shipments. Tell dispatch about the size, weight, and quantity so the right vehicle can be arranged.
How should I package my shipment?
Pack and seal the item securely, protect fragile contents, and label the recipient clearly. Medical or temperature-sensitive shipments need suitable compliant containment and any handling instructions agreed with dispatch.
How will I receive confirmation?
After you submit the form, the request is saved and sent to dispatch. A manager reviews the route and confirms the price and pickup arrangements by email, normally within about 15 minutes.
How can I follow my delivery?
Keep the private status link provided with your request or sign in to My Deliveries. Our team updates the delivery status. Optional email notifications can be enabled in your account.
Will I receive proof of delivery?
Dispatch can provide confirmation of delivery, the handoff time, and the recipient details. Let us know before pickup if a signature, photo, or specific custody document is required.
Can you deliver to embassies or government buildings?
Yes. Include the building, entrance, recipient, access requirements, and any filing deadline. Dispatch will coordinate the handoff and confirm any additional instructions.
What if I need to change or cancel a request?
Call 301-312-9364 as soon as possible. The options and any applicable charge depend on whether the courier has already been assigned or started the trip. Dispatch will explain the details.
