Save Money With Delivery Auction Courier Services

Got something to deliver, or move, but stalled by the price quoted by most couriers

? If thats you, then start using courier services as offered by the delivery auction sites.

The idea behind these courier services and delivery auction sites has been around for a few years now and they came about because of constant requests from potential customers who wanted to know if they could make use of an empty, returning vehicle.

When you come to think about it, everything that gets delivered goes one way, meaning that the vehicle doing the delivery, usually comes back empty. This means that its a wasted journey for the transport company and a missed opportunity for anyone wanting to use it to transport their own goods. And being able to make use of the return journey is the basis of this particular courier services concept. Its why the delivery auction websites are thriving.

Its win-win for not only the customer, but also the transport company. Think about it for a moment. For every million miles spent delivering an item, theres another million miles spent coming back empty. Even if you fill 50% of those empty loads, thats 500,000 miles saved. That helps not only the environment saving huge amounts of CO2 emissions but saves a fortune in wasted fuel.

They reckon that they can save up to 85% of the cost of a delivery. Lets say you want a tall wardrobe taking from Sheffield to London. You cant get it into your car, the postman runs a mile when you show it to him and when you ask the local Sheffield courier, he warns you to fatten up your wallet. So thats when you turn to the courier service firms which offer delivery auction websites.

You place an entry on a courier services site like ANYVAN.com, saying that you want your beloved wardrobe taking from Sheffield to London. This part costs you nothing and then you sit back, and wait for the bids to come in from couriers and transport companies that want your business. Companies who are more than likely returning from Sheffield to London with an empty van, or lorry. After a while you look at your bids (usually at a fraction of the cost you were quoted originally), check on the website to find out about whos bidding, and then, if youre happy, make the arrangements with them. If you dont want to move your wardrobe after all, then you dont have to commit to any of the bids.

And thats all there is to the idea of using these types of courier services. Its a great way to get your stuff moved and it should save you a fortune.
