Transport System Improvements
Improving our transport system is another way in which the FLYEXPRESS COURIER DELIVERY SERVICE Group is pushing forward our initiatives to reduce the impact on environment.
Joint Delivery
In urban areas, where trucks are widely used for transport, major problems such as air pollution from CO2, NOx, PM emissions and traffic congestion are prevalent. Many of these problems are seen to have resulted from a higher frequency of collections and deliveries due to smaller lots, a lack of cargo processing facilities and increased street side parking for pickups and deliveries.
To address this situation, the FLYEXPRESS COURIER DELIVERY SERVICE Group is advancing joint delivery. This method entails the loading of similar category products from various manufacturers for a single delivery. Compared to making individual deliveries based on manufacturer, fewer deliveries are necessary, reducing overall CO2 emissions with increasingly efficient receipt of goods at the final destination.
Milk-run operation:
Milk-run operation is a delivery method in which one vehicle makes stops at several suppliers on a regular route, collecting all cargo in one trip. The method gets its unique name from the dairy industry, with one truck visiting several dairy farms to collect milk. By setting a route for collecting shipments, shipping and delivery times become regular, facilitating well-planned and efficient procurement logistics. Milk-run operations help reduce the impact on the environment while alleviating traffic congestion.
