To go local or not to go local? That is the question.

Shakespeare’s question was a little more profound than mine, I humbly admit. To be or not to be… whatever that really means. I actually just peeked at the prose for that line in Hamlet, my insight is no better than ten minutes before I read it!

But when I phrase it in modern language based on my expertise, it all makes perfect sense.

To go local or not to go local, that is the question!

And you know my answer. And it isn’t just because Dallas Courier is a local delivery service in Dallas. It’s because when it comes to deliveries, local is really the answer.

Dallas Courier was born and bred in DFW. We have thrived in the community for a number of reasons which I’ll get to later. We haven’t sold out to a bigger company. We haven’t left clients high and dry for something better. When we began, we aimed to be the best local delivery service in Dallas, and I’d say that today, we are proudly living out that goal!

So why does local matter when it comes to deliveries? Let’s unpack this question together, shall we?

1.       Local know-how. No one knows a city better than those who live in it. If you vacation to a new place, who do you want showing you around? Someone who lives there or an outsider? Someone who lives there, no doubt! Local people know the ins and outs of a city. As a local delivery service in Dallas, that means we know the local traffic flow, the best backroads, what to avoid on rainy and icy days, the quickest routes to get from A to B. It’s why we can get our deliveries picked up and delivered on time for all of our many services - super urgent, 1 hour, 2 hour, 3 hour and 4 hour. Local people know because they live there. Local people know because they are committed to the city…

2.       Committed to the city. Texans stick together. It’s part of our nature, part of our camaraderie. And it’s special and unique. Dallas Courier is committed to our city prospering. Why? We care about the people that live here and the businesses that operate here. When people care, their work is backed by meaning, not just money. There’s an intangible force driving our team. We want to see our city do well. That means when we deliver for you, whether you’re an individual or a Fortune 500 company, we make it count for reasons big and small.

3.       Networking. From the age of 18, I heard one phrase on repeat: it’s all about who you know. Admittedly, the phrase bugged me. I didn’t like that things seemed to be more about who you knew than your work or effort. But as I’ve gotten older, there’s one thing I can say for certain. It’s all about who you know! And it’s not an inner-circle outer-circle type of thing. It’s just a ‘hey, I know someone you might want to talk to’ type of thing. Locals know the best. Being a local delivery service in Dallas, we know lots and lots of people. I can’t tell you the number of times our local know-how has connected businesses, people and organizations for their mutual betterment.

4.       Trust. Locals aren’t just here to make a buck and leave. They live in the city with their families. They shop where you shop. They care about littering, parks, city improvement and more. Living in Dallas and having deep roots here means we aren’t fly-by-night. We are the real deal.
