Deliv is a crowdsourced delivery service used by retailers and malls . A shopper within a certain radius of the mall can have her purchase delivered to her the same day, whether she bought the goods online or at the store, with the offer for delivery typically made as she pays for the purchase. The price is around $5 per delivery.
Deliv is able to offer this price point by crowdsourcing its drivers. Having no vehicles to maintain, warehouses to house them or regular (and possibly union-set) salary and benefits to pay tends to save a lot. Drivers get paid by the hour – between $12 to $15 an hour plus a stipend for driving costs – and they are hired when needed. More to the point, they deliver many packages on their runs for many retailers, all beginning from the same location.
Report
Deliv has done an excellent job at building out the driver base and working with large customers who already have the infrastructure to support their services.
Keep up the good work.
