Jobsite delivery considerations

When searching for “delivery services near me,” discuss these factors with each possible carrier you contact:

Timeliness

Ask about their on-time record. Late deliveries can disrupt project schedules and incur additional costs.

Accuracy

What is their accuracy rate? Items delivered should match the order specs precisely. This includes correct

    1. quantities
    2. sizes and
    3. types

of materials.

Do they have experience delivering the kinds of materials you need? Have they worked with your suppliers before? Have they delivered to jobsites near yours?

Quality

What can they tell you about their quality record? How often do they deliver items free of defects of damage?

Safety

Do they comply with the safety regulations of your industry? What packaging and handling procedures do they have in place to prevent accidents during transport and unloading?

Communication

A reliable delivery service provides status updates and promptly addresses any concerns or issues that arise. Because Redkey is a small company, you are always one call away from help. Everyone in our office has the authority to make quick decisions to solve problems.

Customer service

Does the delivery company offer unloading? How do they handle returns or exchanges? What kind of satisfaction rating do they have with repeat customers?

For that matter, how many of their customers ARE repeat customers? That will tell you a lot about their customer service!

Cost-effectiveness

Affordability is important, but how well do they maintain their trucks to prevent breakdowns? How long have their drivers been working with the company? Do they treat people well (who will then treat you right?)

If you can avoid setbacks or expenses associated with subpar deliveries, you will save in the long run. Choose Redkey, one of the best delivery service companies in Cincinnati, and your project will have a better chance of success.
