February 2025 Logistics & Delivery Insights

February was busy at Dex Removals & Logistics Services. We covered everything from how the USPS handles your last‑mile delivery to the nitty‑gritty of pallet shipping costs. Whether you’re a small‑business owner hunting the best courier, a homeowner needing next‑day letter delivery, or a tech‑savvy manager curious about SAP in warehousing, we’ve got something for you.

Last‑Mile, Overnight & Courier Choices

We kicked off the month with a deep dive into the United States Postal Service’s role in the final leg of a package’s journey. Understanding the USPS’s network helps you predict faster, cheaper deliveries. Right after, we compared FedEx and UPS for overnight shipments, breaking down price, reliability, and tracking features so you can pick the right partner for time‑critical orders.

If you’re looking for alternatives to gig‑economy apps like DoorDash, our “Top Paying Alternatives for Delivery Drivers” post highlighted companies offering better rates and flexible schedules. Meanwhile, a quick guide on the USPS Overnight cutoff time gave you the exact hour you need to drop off a package to guarantee next‑day service.

Shipping Strategies & Technology

Shipping by pallet can save you money, but only if you know the rules. Our pallet‑shipping cost analysis explained how weight, dimensions, and distance affect pricing, plus tips for choosing the right pallet. We also answered the common question, “Does USPS deliver pallets?” – the short answer: not usually, and we explained why.

On the tech side, we explored SAP’s impact on modern warehousing, showing how its modules improve inventory accuracy and streamline operations. A companion piece on e‑logistics explained how digital tools are reshaping e‑commerce fulfillment, from real‑time tracking to automated order processing.

For businesses weighing international options, the “Best Options for International Shipping” guide broke down air freight, sea freight, and courier services, highlighting key factors like customs clearance and insurance.

We didn’t forget the basics. A practical article on calculating delivery fees walked you through distance, size, and urgency variables, while a short post on getting a letter delivered the next day gave you step‑by‑step instructions to avoid missed deadlines.

Other highlights included a look at who actually uses courier services, salary insights for warehouse supervisors in 2025, and a behind‑the‑scenes look at how freight forwarders make money.
