What Is Shared Delivery?

Short answer: Shared delivery is a delivery model where compatible delivery requirements can be organised together and matched with available transport capacity instead of every requirement automatically using a separate journey.

How shared delivery works

Businesses create delivery requirements such as collection location, destination, delivery window and goods information. Compatible requirements can then be organised into routes that make use of suitable driver capacity.

Why businesses use shared delivery

The model is intended to improve vehicle utilisation, support route-based operations and reduce unnecessary separate journeys where deliveries are compatible.

Frequently asked questions

Is shared delivery the same as dedicated delivery?

No. Dedicated delivery generally reserves a journey for one delivery requirement. Shared delivery can organise compatible requirements into a common route.

Can shared delivery reduce empty miles?

It can help make better use of available capacity and may reduce unnecessary journeys or unused vehicle space. The result depends on the actual route and delivery requirements.
