Couriers offer on-demand delivery services where they pick up a package from point A and deliver it to point B. They usually drive motor vehicles, but some couriers use bicycles, such as in large cities where a bike makes it easier to get through traffic. Dispatchers typically send Couriers to the pickup locations, where they collect the items and any special delivery instructions. They then take the package to the recipient, where they might need to collect payment or have the recipient sign for the delivery. Some Couriers have regular routes, such as Medical Couriers who visit certain Doctor’s offices to collect medical samples on a daily basis and take them to a lab. Others have different customers every day.
