Sqootle’s technology platform serves a growing network of people keen to work as a community to enable a peer-to-peer, shared courier and delivery service. Users can send their items with other Sqootle users who are travelling to the delivery location.
By posting an assignment on the marketplace, Sqootle puts senders in touch with takers that have the capacity and means to carry or transport the items. The sender and taker can interact through the platform and agree on the pick-up location and the fee for the delivery, which is collected by Sqootle. Senders can track their assignment in real time from their smart phone and will be alerted once it has been delivered and electronically signed for by the recipient. Payments are released by Sqootle only upon successful delivery.
Through Sqootle a sender can find a taker who can arrange for delivery of any type of item – a letter, some documents, a parcel or maybe even something bigger, like a piece of furniture. We have a variety of takers who use Sqootle and there will surely be one who can arrange to have any item delivered, regardless of its size and shape. Just post an item on the marketplace, whatever it is; therell be a suitable taker out there. And rest assured - all assignments are covered by insurance and as a sender, you’ll be able to view the profile and past performance ratings of any of our takers, all of which are vetted at the time of registration.
By using Sqootle, not only are there significant savings to be made on courier and delivery costs compared to conventional courier companies, but youll also be helping others by creating opportunities for them to earn extra cash.
Sqootle takers range from travellers and commuters using public transport to people who own a cycle, car, taxi or even truck and want to earn some extra cash. In fact even existing courier and delivery companies that have spare capacity or are looking for additional work can become a taker with Sqootle.
With Sqootle, youll be helping others as well as having a positive impact on the environment - shared deliveries require fewer journeys which in turn help reduce pollution.
