Same Day Delivery

Whether it's a matter of a standard delivery gone awry, an unexpected supply chain snafu, or the failure of a crucial part, Airfreight.com is the freight broker with the connections to set things right. Our customer service agents are phenomenal when it comes to rapid responses. As soon as they know the dimensions of your shipment, your critical time frame, and the distance involved they are ready to arrange for a trucking company with the appropriate size truck to pick it up. Typically, you can expect the truck to arrive at your facility within a few hours of hanging up the phone.

Depending on how far the next day delivery shipment must travel, the trucking company may take it all the way to your recipient, or it may only take it as far as the nearest airport. But just the same, your goods will be the only cargo on the truck so you don't have to worry about time-consuming stops to pick up and discharge other shipments, not when every minute counts.

Two factors determine if same day delivery ground transportation will work for you — how early you call us, and how far the shipment will be going. If they line up right, your customer agent will select a trucking company which will dispatch a two man driver team, so they can spot each other during the drive.

And importantly, you can rest assured your agent will have your budget in mind, the trucking company will never send more truck than you need.

If the distance involved makes same day ground delivery out of the question, your agent will contact one of the airlines we rely on to fly our same day delivery freight to airports all over the country.

Again, due to our years of doing business with them, they know how important expedited deliveries are to us, and we in turn trust them because they come through for our customers every time.

If you're okay with her price quote your agent will arrange for a trucking company to dispatch a vehicle to whisk your shipment to the airport for departure, and arrange for another trucking company at the other end of the journey to bring it to your customer's receiving area.

It may happen that none of the airlines your agent contacts are able to accommodate your deadline. Sometimes it's a scheduling problem, other times, the airport to which it is going is not a location they serve.

In this case, she will arrange for an air charter. She will issue you a quote and if you give the word, the trucking company we select will dispatch a truck and take your shipment to a waiting plane. Then another trucking company will dispatch a truck and driver who will be waiting when it arrives at its destination to usher it to your customer.
