Read More About Our Tracking Services
NYC courier pricing is based on three factors: distance, urgency, and vehicle size. A standard same-day envelope delivery within Manhattan starts at our base rate. Cross-borough deliveries — Brooklyn to Manhattan, Queens to FiDi — are priced based on distance. Rush delivery (pickup in under 30 minutes) carries a premium over standard same-day. Overnight delivery is priced between rush and standard.
Vehicle size affects pricing. A messenger on foot or bike handles envelopes and small packages at the lowest rate. A cargo van handles boxes, multiple packages, and items up to 3,000 lbs. A box truck with liftgate handles pallets, freight, and oversized items at a higher rate. White glove delivery — which includes professional wrapping, inside delivery, and placement — is quoted individually based on item specifics.
Xentra Transport quotes flat rates before dispatch. The price you hear on the phone or see in your online quote is the price you pay. No per-mile calculations after the fact. No fuel surcharges. No congestion pricing add-ons. No residential delivery fees. Everything is included. Use our pricing calculator for instant estimates or call 877-709-2711.
For a standard same-day delivery within Manhattan, here is how the options compare. FedEx SameDay costs $150-300+ depending on weight and offers a 4-hour delivery window with no guaranteed exact timing. Uber Connect or similar gig apps cost $15-40 but offer zero tracking accountability, no proof of delivery, and send an unvetted driver. A professional same-day courier from Xentra Transport is flat-rate priced with GPS tracking, digital proof of delivery, and a dispatcher you can call.
The real comparison is not just price — it is total cost of failure. A $15 gig delivery that loses your client's contract costs you the client. A $200 FedEx delivery that arrives 4 hours late misses your court filing deadline. A flat-rate courier delivery that arrives in 90 minutes with proof costs more than the gig app and less than FedEx — and it actually works. For businesses running 3+ deliveries per day, scheduled routes reduce the per-delivery cost by 30-40% compared to on-demand pricing.

Volume is the fastest way to lower your per-delivery cost. Businesses sending 15+ deliveries per week qualify for account pricing with priority dispatch and reduced rates. Scheduled recurring routes — daily or weekly fixed routes between your offices, clients, or facilities — get the best rates because we optimize driver allocation in advance.
Dedicated messenger service — where you get your own assigned driver for a set number of hours per day — costs less per delivery than on-demand calls when you are running 5+ deliveries daily. Call 877-709-2711 with your typical weekly delivery volume and we will quote the most cost-effective option for your business.
