Active Transport Cited for Excellence:Named One of the Best NYC Courier Services 2017 out of a Pool of 1865 Possible Choices*

*According to Expertise, an Independent Rating Organization

New York City is nothing if not a city of choices. There is an abundance of everything - from corner delis (literally on every corner) to personal and business services that aren't even available in many other locales. So when it comes to hiring a messenger and courier service in NYC, there are a plethora of players. However, caveat emptor -- the playing field is far from level.

Who can you trust with time-sensitive biomedical specimens, or your one-of-a-kind design prototypes, or your confidential and urgent legal or business documents? Will you be just another job number, another anonymous person on the phone, or will you be a valued customer, expecting and receiving the level of personalized service you deserve? If you are an office manager, your job could literally be on the line if you choose the wrong courier service. Why leave such an important relationship to chance?

Thanks to the independent review board at Expertise, you can be confident that it's not an empty sales pitch when we tell Active Transport NYC messenger service is among the vetted handful of New York messenger services named "Best of 2017."

I have used Active Transport for nearly 25 years. They have consistently provided me with great service.

I used Active Transport for messenger service for the company I work with a number of years ago. They were always fast and reliable. The company recently moved and we forgot about Active Transport until a recent messenger need. We had called another local messenger and the cost was crazy. We remembered Active and called for a quote -- over $100 less Amazing, Pick up was super fast with really nice Couriers. We called late in the day, and had multiple boxes going out with an early time limit (the other courier wouldn't pick up until the following week). AT came and almost everyone received their packages that day no problem. The packages that would be delayed to the next day (no problem for us, we just needed them out of the office immediately) and they gave us a discount for the delay.
