@nbrempel I remember catching TruckPlease on Reddit as we were building the foundation for Schlep in autumn 2013. There's a lot of us out there - all branching out to our own unique niches as time has passed.
@iudaea Thanks! You can actually get a quote for a piano without booking the schlep here: schlep.it/request - the app gives a live quote based on your exact details.
Good guys. I used to own the schlep.it, and schlepit.com domains, but knew the Schlep guys would make better use of it. Definitely recommend the team, sure the product is top notch too.
@hunteririley @kurtcunningham - keen to see how you aim to compete with others in this space? :)
@bentossell without writing a novella and without revealing too much of the secret sauce (but because of that at risk of others calling this response cliche): 1. Better customer experience; 2. Consistent quality, guaranteed; 3. Direct integration into the local logistics ecosystem; 4. Upfront and transparent pricing; and 5. Over a decade of combined experience in local logistics and residential delivery.
@hunteririley thanks.
Although competitors would argue that they can compete on 1, 2, 4 and 5 - do you think you will give a different enough experience to thrive?
@bentossell we've spent the past two years defining this in one market - so, compete, yes. Thrive - that's the ultimate goal!
Great idea I think you should add some video to your site showing the process in action That will answer a lot of client questions besides the FAQ
@workstationw great minds think alike. We're putting the finishing touches on video now - check back in soon!
I love the idea because sometimes you just need to move One or two things that just won't fit in a car and isn't worth worrying about insurance for. Good luck!
Hope you guys succeed and expand outside North America. This would be awesome in areas where less people own vehicles (of any sort).
