Choosing the right vehicle for your delivery needs can make the difference between a successful shipment and a logistical nightmare. At Ontime Express, we've spent over 25 years building a diverse fleet specifically designed to handle the unique delivery challenges throughout the greater St. Louis metropolitan area.
Our comprehensive vehicle selection ensures that whether you're shipping a single envelope across town or moving a full pallet of goods, we have the right equipment to get your items delivered safely and efficiently.
Cargo Vans: The Workhorses of Local Delivery
Cargo vans form the backbone of our delivery fleet, offering the perfect balance of capacity and maneuverability for urban deliveries. These versatile vehicles excel at handling medium-sized shipments while navigating tight parking situations and busy downtown streets.
Ideal applications include:
- Multi-stop routes with various package sizes
- Document deliveries to office buildings
- Retail inventory transfers
- Medical supply distribution
Our cargo vans feature secure loading areas, climate protection, and tie-down systems that keep your shipments secure during transport. The rear and side door access makes loading and unloading efficient, reducing delivery times and minimizing handling.
Box Trucks: Maximum Capacity Solutions
When your delivery requires serious cargo space, our box trucks provide the capacity needed for larger shipments. These vehicles feature hydraulic lift gates and spacious cargo compartments that accommodate palletized freight, bulk deliveries, and oversized items.
Box trucks prove essential for any-size delivery services that exceed standard van capacity. Whether you're moving office furniture, restaurant equipment, or industrial supplies, these vehicles ensure your large items reach their destination without damage.
The enclosed cargo areas protect shipments from weather and provide secure storage during multi-stop routes. Professional tie-down systems and load bars prevent shifting during transport, maintaining the integrity of your valuable cargo.
SUVs and Sedans: Rapid Response Fleet
For time-sensitive deliveries requiring speed and efficiency, our SUV and sedan fleet provides the perfect solution. These vehicles excel at priority shipments, emergency deliveries, and situations where quick response times are critical.
Our passenger vehicle fleet specializes in emergency courier services where every minute counts. Medical specimens, legal documents, and critical business materials receive priority handling with direct, non-stop service to their destinations.
The compact size of these vehicles allows access to restricted areas, residential neighborhoods, and locations where larger trucks cannot operate effectively. Despite their smaller cargo capacity, they provide secure transport for high-value or time-critical shipments.
- Air-ride suspension for cargo protection
- Heavy-duty lift gates for non-dock locations
- Professional pallet jacks and load-securing systems
- Complete weather protection features
Specialized Equipment Fleet
Certain deliveries require specialized equipment beyond standard cargo vehicles. Our specialized fleet includes vehicles equipped with refrigeration units, lift gates, and custom configurations designed for unique delivery challenges.
Temperature-controlled vehicles maintain the cold chain for pharmaceutical deliveries, food service shipments, and other temperature-sensitive cargo. These units provide precise climate control throughout the delivery process, ensuring product integrity from pickup to final destination.
For special equipment deliveries requiring lifting assistance, our lift-gate equipped vehicles eliminate the need for additional handling equipment at delivery locations. This capability proves invaluable for heavy items, medical equipment, and machinery deliveries.
Choosing the Right Vehicle for Your Needs
Selecting the appropriate vehicle depends on several factors including cargo size, weight, delivery timeline, and access requirements. Our experienced dispatch team evaluates each delivery request to recommend the optimal vehicle choice based on your specific requirements.
Key considerations include:
- Package dimensions and weight
- Delivery location accessibility
- Time sensitivity requirements
- Special handling needs
