New Online Service Cleans Up Deliveries

November 28th 2009 – FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

A new online delivery service aims to clean up the transport industry – www.findmycourier.com.

Findmycourier.com allows anyone with internet access, including business’, to list items for delivery where a network of national and independent couriers and shipping companies will bid to move their goods.

According to research by the department for transport (http://bit.ly/5d2jE3) couriers spend up to 25% of their time completely empty, so using this service they can keep their vehicles running at full capacity saving both money and unnecessary road miles.

Without the larger presence and advertising budget of some of the larger transport companies, some smaller operators struggle to get noticed in such a competitive field. Findmycourier.com allows courier companies large and small to bid for the same delivery; finally leveling the playing field for couriers and offering the customer huge savings.

Different from normal freight boards and load matching services, findmycourier.com uses a reverse auction style bidding system and allows the user to accept or reject bids as they please.

Keeping It Safe

In addition to the tools and services on findmycourier.com, there are several measures taken to ensure their users are kept safe from scammers.

Managing Director Paul Kutschmarski says “We wanted to ensure our users felt safe choosing a courier, passing over details and making payments so we’ve gone to every effort to provide them with the information they need to stay safe. Before you accept a bid you will be presented with all of the couriers information including whether they have relevant insurances and how much is covered etc”.

“Further to this you can see if they are a member of any trade or courier associations, all of which have strict entry requirements. Group all this information with our detailed feedback system and you quickly get a clear snapshot of the courier company before you decide to use their services”

In an industry where couriers face increasing running costs and the ever rising pressure to decrease their carbon footprint, findmycourier.com opens the door for courier companies large and small to excel both financially and environmentally.
