  1. Different Types of Courier Deliveries and Their Parcel Sizes in NYC Planning on outsourcing your delivery to a courier company? There are a number of different courier services, and the right type really depends on how big your items are, how quickly you need them to reach their destinations, and other such factors. It's important to familiarize yourself with each of them so that you can select a suitable delivery service that meets your requirements and gives the best value for your money. Bike messenger delivery This type of service is appropriate for sending small packages and confidential documents quickly and safely. Bike messenger delivery is generally the most affordable and fastest service. Bike messengers tend to move much more quickly than vans because they can easily find ways toget around traffic jams. After all, bicycles are allowed on small or narrow roads, so messengers can take shortcuts. If you have to ship small parcels on the same day, then this is the service for you. However, remember that this service has limitations in terms of the size and weight of the parcels. Bike messengers usually don’t accept any item that exceeds 10lbs, though this depends on the courier company. Call ahead to be sure! Van and truck delivery Van and truck courier delivery services are suitable for all types of items. They can safely and securely ship any package regardless of its size. Some companies offer same-day truck delivery services, too. White-glove service If your package needs extra care and special attention, then it’s best to request a white glove delivery service. It’smore expensive, but it’s worth spending on this type of delivery when shipping valuable, fragile, and temperature-sensitive items such as lighting fixtures, artwork, furniture, and expensive equipment. Size is not an issue. The courier company will use the appropriate vehicle for your item. Special delivery Items that require stringent handling such as medical-related items like specimens, hospital apparatus, and laboratory equipment need special delivery services. Before booking a courier service for your medical-related items, make sure that the company is duly accredited to handle such deliveries. Ask to see their HIPAA certification. Check if they have the proper equipment and vehicle to correctly handle sensitive medical shipments. The best courier companies can safely handle critically urgent cargoes for your peace of mind!
