San Mateo Courier and Freight Delivery

Courier and freight where SR-92 meets US-101

The city sits at the Peninsula end of the San Mateo Bridge, where SR-92 crosses US-101. That puts it in the middle of everything: SFO to the north, Silicon Valley to the south, the East Bay across the bridge and the coast over the hill. Downtown, the Hillsdale area and the Bridgepointe and Mariners Island business parks are full of offices, medical buildings and retail.

We dispatch from Fremont and reach the city straight across the San Mateo Bridge. We also cover Pacifica and Half Moon Bay on the coast side from here. Local business information is on the City of San Mateo website.

Vehicles we send in San Mateo

We match the vehicle to the load, so you are not paying for a truck when a van will do.

• Car or SUV: envelopes, specimens, small parcels and documents.
• Cargo van: boxes, totes, IT equipment and small crated items.
• Sprinter van: larger loads that need to stay dry, secure and off a shared truck.
• Box truck with liftgate: 1 to 12 pallets, furniture and equipment, with or without a dock.
• Reefer: refrigerated and frozen loads for food, pharma and lab shipments.

Not sure what you need? Tell dispatch what you are shipping, the size and the deadline, and we will pick the right vehicle on the call.

How a pickup works

1. Call dispatch or send the pickup details. You get a price on the call.
2. We assign a vehicle sized to the load.
3. The driver picks up, scans the shipment, and you get updates through delivery.
4. Signed proof of delivery is sent when the run closes.

Recurring work, like a daily shuttle between two sites or a weekly parts run, is set up on a fixed schedule with the same drivers.

What to have ready when you call

• Pickup and delivery addresses, and whether there is a dock or you need a liftgate.
• Size, weight and piece count.
• Ready time and the deadline at the other end.
• Any temperature, handling or chain-of-custody requirements.
• A reference or PO number for billing.

With that, dispatch can price the run on the call and have a driver moving right after.
