courier services

For other uses, see Courier (disambiguation).

A courier is a person or company that delivers packages and mail, often between offices and generally in a shorter timescale than surface mail. In cities, some couriers will ride bicycles or motorbikes but most today use trucks and aircraft.

The number of jobs for couriers is projected to decrease over the next 5 to 10 years. The number of packages being delivered is increasing, but technology is creating efficiencies for the delivery companies that are reducing the number of employees required to deliver each package.

The term courier can also be used for a certain kind of robots, courier robots, that transport objects in a building (home, industry, and others). We have been making time sensitive, same day deliveries since 1993!.

There are many courier enterprises. The world's largest courier company is UPS followed by FedEx and DHL. eCourier, which uses cutting edge GPS, mobile computing and automated fleet management is considered a next-generation courier company.

Another sort of courier is a "cash-courier". This is someone who carries large amounts of cash money from one place to another (from one country to another) to avoid the normal financial circuit (where they risk being reported to an anti-moneylaundering authority) and thus launder money from an illegal origin.
