Final mile (last mile) delivery for palletized and commercial freight, plus standard-size packages via shipping label. Same-day and next-day windows, appointment and residential handling, running through the same order flow as line-haul.
Same-day or next-day window, with appointment scheduling where required.
Residential vs commercial detected up front so accessorials are quoted correctly.
Runs through the same tracking, documents and reconciliation as the rest of the shipment.
Local freight delivery is shaped by the stop, the freight and the delivery window. Before requesting a quote, confirm:
Same-day, next-day or a scheduled appointment.
Commercial and residential deliveries may require different handling.
Include pallet count, dimensions, weight and handling requirements.
Note appointment requirements and any accessorial needs before booking.
For some projects — coordinated case by case with the delivery carrier. Mention it when requesting a quote.
These are increasingly involved delivery levels, each typically costing more than the one before: curbside drops the freight at the curb or driveway; threshold brings it just past the first door (garage, lobby, entryway); inside delivery brings it further into the building; room of choice places it in the specific room you designate. Confirm which level you need when requesting a quote.
What gets used depends on the freight and the stop — common examples below (not an exhaustive list):
| Vehicle | Best fit |
|---|---|
| Cargo Van | Small urgent commercial freight |
| Straight Truck | Medium local freight |
| 26' Box Truck | Palletized commercial delivery |
| 26' Box Truck + Liftgate | No-dock, residential and limited-access locations |
| Hotshot | Time-sensitive or flexible regional runs |
| 53' Dry Van | Larger palletized freight needing full-trailer capacity |
| Local FTL | Larger local and regional freight |
How post-arrival delivery works after freight reaches a U.S. port or warehouse, including drayage, transload, LTL, truckload, local delivery, and final-mile coordination.
Last-mile delivery cost isn't one number — it's a base rate plus situational accessorials like appointment, liftgate and limited-access fees. Here's where each piece comes from, and how to avoid getting rebilled.
Palletized freight, rated and tracked across multiple LTL carriers — with NMFC lookup, density-to-class estimation and accessorial validation built into the quote, before it ever reaches a carrier.
Dedicated trailers for full loads, solo or team drivers, with equipment matching, rate confirmations and door-to-door tracking on every load.
The step between container freight and domestic distribution — a container arrives, gets broken down, and the freight inside continues on LTL, truckload, intermodal or last-mile. Coordinated through the platform; performed by licensed warehouse and trucking partners.
