Exceptional Last Mile Delivery Solutions
Summit Delivery Services designs and executes tailor-made solutions based on client needs to provide an exceptional customer experience. We provide dedicated last mile delivery solutions to retailers of big box items like home furnishings, appliances, electronics, bedding and mattresses. Although many retailers sell the same merchandise, we strive to collaborate with our customers to design and execute a last mile delivery approach unique to each customer. With our services dedicated to each customer, our customers' brand becomes the brand we embrace to ensure an exceptional in-home customer experience.
Consumers care only about one delivery — their delivery. With that in mind, the fundamental approach to our services is to treat each delivery as if it’s the only delivery we are making. It is a culture we have created for every delivery team and employee to think of a delivery as not just another piece of merchandise, it is a delivery of something the consumer has dreamt of having, a delivery of something that will make their house a home.
