The catering delivery with unique ways to improve
There are many types of deliveries. In fact, since delivery apps began changing the delivery game, the various types of delivery have been on the rise. If it can be moved by one courier, it can be a delivery. This is a bonus for the courier. Not only is it job security, but also an opportunity for increased earnings.
With this in mind, the courier should keep that hustle. Each delivery isn’t a break from the last. Each delivery is a step into the next. The next delivery, that is. Therefore, the courier must save time. Whenever possible. Additionally, this is one of the unique ways to improve a delivery. Nothing says punctuality like being early.
The Catering Delivery
The catering delivery is no exception. An early courier, on a catering delivery, is a customer bonus. Furthermore, it is also a courier bonus. The courier completes the work. Ahead of time. Therefore, completing a delivery earlier than expected, is a best practice. Especially, with a catering delivery. Punctuality is one of the most valuable tools, in the courier’s tool kit.
This may sound fast and easy. However, it isn’t. There are many details on catering deliveries. As well as many items. Not only does it take a while to unload, but also to setup.
Pro Tip: In some cases the courier sets up the cargo where it is easily accessible. Then all beverages are placed where they are accessible. (Customers usually rearrange them to suit individual guests) Setting drinks and cups out where the customer requests, is a best practice, and improves gratuity odds. Same with dinnerware, plates and napkins, etc.
If it sounds like a lot to do, it actually is, with regard to a speedy delivery. There is more cargo on a catering delivery. This alone creates a significant time consideration. Particularly, if the courier carries many items, in separate trips. Therefore a cart or wagon of some sort is an excellent addition to the arsenal of tools the courier should have.
Similarly the catering heat bags are important tools. Furthermore they are unique. They are larger and able to hold more cargo. This makes them required equipment. In fact, many delivery apps sell them. However, they are also searchable online.
Improvement
The catering delivery is also time intensive. Loading and unloading cargo is one area where losing time is a given. Catering bags keep cargo stationary. The less cargo movement, the better. This goes hand in hand with the cart. Or wagon. Getting the delivery to the actual room, or table, or counter, is the job. Depending on the amount of cargo, this may be time consuming.
With this in mind, this topic will continue in the next few articles. Mainly because the catering delivery is complex, and sometimes extreme. However, there is every reason to provide a professional experience. From start to finish. Stay safe out there.
