3PD’s Paths To Last-Mile Excellence

3PD was one of the first companies to create a nationwide last-mile delivery solution for products such as furniture, appliances, large-scale electronics, building materials, medical equipment and office equipment. Today, that solution includes:

  • 3PDirect: A transactional, non-agent-based network national delivery solution within the lower 48 U.S. states (including pick-up services from any domestic factory, supplier or distribution center)
  • 3PDedicated: Home, business or job site delivery throughout the continental United States
  • 3PDesktop: Robust, customer experience and delivery management technology

All of these offerings feature options such as:

  • Simple, secure and convenient web portal or EDI order entry
  • Advanced or point-of-sale delivery appointment scheduling
  • Cross-docking and value-adding warehousing services
  • Automated en-route notification via convenience calls, texts and e-mails to the customer on or before the day of delivery
  • Item-level, real-time tracking
  • Unpacking, set-up, installation, debris removal and used merchandise removal at the delivery site
  • White-glove, furniture deluxing, appliance installation and other value-adding activities
  • Customer and retail call center support
  • Automatic post-delivery surveys and exceptions management
  • Same-day incident resolution
  • Robust back office report generation and order tracking

And all come complete with the 3PD emphasis on last-mile speed, reliability and nationwide consistency: “Our list of services is diverse. But it’s also extremely focused,” says 3PD CEO Karl Meyer. “Everything we do is first and foremost about last-mile logistics – and ultimately about last-mile efficiency and excellence.”

Award-Winning Last-Mile Success

Since opening its doors in 2001, 3PD has quickly become one of the largest North American players in the last-mile logistics sector. It currently makes nearly 5 million deliveries annually, including many deliveries that require specialized services such as installation or assembly. And it has continually earned honors and accolades from clients, industry organizations such as CSCMP, and national publications such as Inbound Logistics, which named it a Top 100 Provider in 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012.
