Delivery Toppers and Rain How One Helps the Other
Delivery toppers are cool. They will stay on a vehicle at speeds greater than the posted limit. Those magnets are strong! It also isn’t important how I came by this knowledge.
The delivery topper will also stay on in the rain. (the magnets are very strong) Furthermore, it will struggle to remain, even as the courier is trying to remove it.
Delivering with a topper is part of the in-house crew delivery experience. Think of it like a uniform cap for the ride. It sits atop the ride and has multiple benefits for the courier and the merchant.
Some couriers prefer to run without the topper when a topper is available. This approach is a preference of the courier however it can lead to missed opportunities. Especially when there is rain.
Delivery Toppers and Rain
Rain is a benefit to merchants that experience heavy volumes of business on the regular. Rainy weather can create a rush of orders during peak hours.
Couriers will see an increase in deliveries during rain events as well as an increase in traffic perils. A topper is a clear indicator that the vehicle is a delivery vehicle.
Furthermore, a courier that has a topper on the vehicle, is easier to identify. Especially in rainy weather. Not only by other traffic, but also by the customer.
Night deliveries are more difficult due to poor visibility. Confirming the exact location of the drop-off takes time, because the courier must slow down to better see address numbers.
The car topper alerts other drivers, and the neighbors living close by, that a courier is seeking an address. The car topper also advertises for the courier and the merchant. It’s a statement that hot fresh food is deliverable soon! Even when it’s raining outside!
A courier that uses a topper will benefit from the recurring business that the topper generates.
