Parcel, fulfillment-center, and home-delivery focus

One route can mean a hundred separate exposures.

Last-mile delivery is close to trucking, but the work rhythm is different: repeated stops, constant vehicle entry and exit, package handling, driveways, stairs, weather, route pressure, and customer-location hazards. Appetite can be tighter, but we want to look at a well-explained account.

Watch: A Hundred Exposures

Last-mile delivery needs its own operating story.

One route can combine driving, repeated stops, package handling, customer locations, and constant vehicle entry and exit. See what helps a human reviewer understand the account.

Why the account gets stuck

Last-mile needs its own operating story.

01

The driver is in and out all day

Stop density, package handling, surfaces, stairs, weather, animals, and customer locations can matter as much as total miles.

02

The contract shapes the operation

Identify the fulfillment center, parcel customer, DSP-style or contractor relationship, route expectations, vehicle requirements, and who controls daily work.

03

The code changes across models and states

Traditional trucking, retail home delivery, courier or messenger work, and fulfillment-center delivery may not share one classification.

Priority review

Start with the operating story.

We will consider employee-driver last-mile and parcel-delivery opportunities when the account clearly explains the contract, routes, vehicles, hiring, package handling, losses, and current controls.

  • Delivery customer or contract model, fulfillment-center relationship, territories, and states
  • Stops per route, miles, package count and weight, stairs, apartments, and seasonal peaks
  • Employee or contractor status, driver tenure, hiring, MVR, training, ride-alongs, and supervision
  • Vehicle ownership, maintenance, telematics, distracted-driving, backing, and route-pressure controls
  • Collision, strain, slip-and-fall, animal, and other losses plus the response to each pattern
Read the distinction

7219, 7197, 7231—or another code?

The number cannot be chosen from the brand name on the packages. For example, New York distinguishes trucking for others, retail-store home delivery, and local messenger or parcel work, while fulfillment-center contracts may route differently. The applicable bureau, carrier, and actual duties determine the final classification.

What helps us review the opportunity

Last-mile delivery combines driving, frequent stops, package handling, time pressure, and changing routes. Review improves when the submission distinguishes employees, contractors, fleet arrangements, territories, and client requirements.

Tell the exposure story

  • Driving frequency and delivery density
  • Package weight and material handling
  • Vehicle ownership, maintenance and telematics

Questions worth answering

  • Who owns and maintains vehicles?
  • What is the maximum package weight?
  • How are routes, speed and distracted driving monitored?

What to send if you have it

  1. Payroll and headcount by role and state
  2. Fleet, territory and delivery-client details
  3. Driver selection and safety controls
  4. Loss runs with collision and strain analysis
