Boycott of Metrogistics

??

 

Found a quote in the article that will be interesting to see how they implement this.

William Billiter, co-founder and managing partner of MetroGistics, said the merger will provide a “final-mile, ‘white glove’ delivery service” to customers across the U.S. “White glove” means the delivery driver walks through everything in the vehicle with the customer.

“We can help dealerships extend their reach in this ever-changing environment where you can purchase a car from your couch and have our team carry the dealership’s brand and experience to the customer’s driveway,” Billiter wrote in an emailed comment. “We’ll do a trunk-to-trunk inspection upon delivery and really help the customer understand their purchase.”

 

Can't wait to waste my time with that for .30/mi

 

Yes, but if you do just 3 separate white glove moves for $.30 pm you will be in the club & eligible for higher rates in the future.

 

The "white glove" should work well with the upcoming ELD, not to mention the truck drivers must have sales experience. “White glove” means the delivery driver walks through everything in the vehicle with the customer. We’ll do a trunk-to-trunk inspection upon delivery and really help the customer understand their purchase.”

 

I'll do it. $1/mi per unit no less

 

I'm thinking they want to broker for Tesla.
