Customized Brand Solutions

Your brand is vital to your business and needs to be visible from point of purchase to delivery. You need a Final Mile provider capable of developing customized solutions, including details such as

  • Professional and courteous drivers who are uniformed
  • brand messaging with delivery
  • box placement/desktop services
  • recycling programs, and whatever else reinforces your brand.

The Precision Home & Office Deliveries division of ASL works with you to plan and execute final mile strategies that help build your brand equity.

And, since the face of your brand is the delivery person, it's good to know that our drivers average over 99.5% on-time delivery with an industry leading OS/D and claims ratio, and consistently earn a 10 out of 10 when end-customers are asked about their delivery experience.

 

Delivering Your Brand; We've Got You Covered to the Final Mile

Precision Home & Office Deliveries division specializes in the careful delivery of products to homes and offices, schools, hospitals and direct to stores — and we specialize in awkward sized / non-conveyable shipments.  

We provide Next Day / Same Day Blow Out Distribution of both courier to small LTL size shipments, and even awkward-sized freight in between). 

We also fulfil linehaul and deliveries for conjunctive deliveries, Drop Ship Vendors (DSV’s), retail, catalogue and residential deliveries.

Courier

Precision Home & Office Deliveries delivers final mile small courier package traditionally delivered by couriers. With Precision Home & Office Deliveries you eliminate the risk of split shipments — common with other couriers.

Precision Home & Office Deliveries lays a foundation of process, discipline and infrastructure.  Rather than flowing thousands of orders on conveyer belts, we split volumes by region and then reassemble each order by delivery location before loading onto local delivery trucks.  This allows us to ensure that each order has the right boxes loaded on the right trucks, and is applied and monitored once at the delivery location.

Over-Size, Non-Conveyable and Over-Weight

Precision Home & Office Deliveries has heard this question many times before. Large, oversize, and over-weight and multi-box orders can be very expensive with traditional partners.

This is why Precision Home & Office Deliveries specialized in this niche market — acquiring the right equipment and tools to manage this type of delivery more cost-effectively. 

Instead of multiple vendors — and still paying too much on some shipments — Precision Home & Office Deliveries can be your single source to cost-effecitvely deliver all your needs.

Custom Messaging

Custom messaging is one way we uniquely support your brand — a message consistent with your brand image.  We can even customize the brand experience to your exact needs.

Our drivers are trained to cater to the needs of each customer with a smile and a thank you with a custom message if you wish, such as "Thank you for ordering from X brand. See you next time."

Why drivers are so important?

Our drivers are trained to behave courteously and serve your customers professionally — and with a smile. Each driver has a regular route and can get to know each customer, allowing us to act as an extension to your business.

We are proud of our low turn-over rate on drivers. We know how frustrating a high turn-over rate in drivers can be for you, especially when they have specific requirements at the delivery location.

 

Dedicated Fleet vs. Conjunctive Fleet vs. Hybrid

When you entrust your eCommerce order fulfilment, shipping, warehousing and distribution needs to a transportation provider, you want to know your chosen vendor can offer you dedicated services along with its conjunctive network.

With Precision Home & Office Deliveries’ Dedicated Fleet services, you can select to have our fleet display your brand with pride, with your logo or decals on our trucks and driver uniforms. We will operate as an extension to your organization and will protect your brand by ensuring we have the right drivers and the right delivery processes in place.

Hybrid solutions

We also offer hybrid solutions.  Very popular with our clients is our unique hybrid in a hybrid, where larger centers such as Toronto outsource trucks in the heart of their fleet area, making it easier for:

  1. A 3PL provider that can flex capacity by 100 percent, supporting peak season and optimizing capacity and the costs of your own fleet;
  2. Head-to-head competition helps performance of both your own fleet and 3PL;
  3. Implement a preventative and back-up plan to any third party labour intervention
  4. Reduce costs by decreasing travel time / stem miles.
  5. Reduce costs through route density optimization including the effective mixing of furniture and supplies.

Regardless of whether you require a full truckload, less-than-truckload or parcel courier delivery services, Precision Home & Office Deliveries has a proven track record in designing and implementing a fleet model to suit your needs. Call us to find out more about the tools we use to operate dedicated fleets vs. conjunctive models and the various hybrid models developed over time to offer the best of both worlds, or to leverage your company fleet with an outsourced option with Precision Home & Office Deliveries.
