Customer PortalNowhere in Colorado Springs Is Fifteen Minutes Away
Everybody says it's. It never is. Between parking, waiting, the wrong desk and the drive back, an errand takes half an hour minimum, and it's almost never the cheapest person in the building who goes.
That half hour costs an owner or a manager roughly $200 at the low end, and upwards of $1,000 once you count a real billable rate. Then add the mileage you reimburse, the insurance exposure you carry while your people drive on company errands, and the work that didn't get done while they were out.
Not a cheaper delivery. A person who isn't you, already going that way, insured for it, who does it again next week without being asked.
The hour, at the real rate
Half an hour of an owner, a manager or a paralegal is the single biggest line, and it's the one nobody writes down.
Mileage and wear
Every mile on a personal car comes back to you as a reimbursement, and the vehicle still ages on somebody's dime.
Insurance exposure
Your people driving on company errands is your risk. Ours is ours. We're bonded and insured for it.
The work that didn't get done
The hour isn't just paid twice. It's an hour your paralegal spent in traffic instead of on a file, and that is the cost nobody puts a number on.
The Questions Behind the Decision
You'll Have Our Drivers, So a Bad Morning Never Reaches You
Over 150+ stops a day. 40,000 deliveries a year. 700+ miles a day, every day, up and down the Front Range. We're small enough that a human answers the phone and big enough that one sick driver or one dead battery is our problem rather than yours.
In over forty years we have shut down for weather exactly twice. Colorado weather is the reason people assume a delivery won't show up, and it's the reason most of ours do.
Forty years in one city. Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned. And a rule that hasn't changed: if a driver can lift it and it fits in the vehicle, we'll try to say yes.
I use Trip Savers for my business, specifically to send client-appreciation gift baskets (they pick the baskets up from the local business and deliver them to the clients). This service saves me a ton of time, whether that is my own time or my employee time, and I'm not having to pay insurance premiums and mileage reimbursement associated with sending my employees around the state in their own vehicles. Trip Savers' prices are reasonable and they're very responsive. Most importantly, I've gotten great feedback from my clients. Highly recommend, especially to business owners trying to get more efficient and save on overhead, which should be everyone :)
