  1. Difference between Residential vs. Commercial Shipping Before you wonder why residential shipping costs more than commercial shipping, know the difference between the two and what influences the cost. Residential shipping is when a package is sent to a private home or home-based business as the last stop. In contrast, commercial shipping is the delivery of goods to a company located in a commercial place. If you are looking for a trucking company in New York, determine your business needs and what type of shipping you need. It will help you choose the best service provider at an affordable price. Is residential freight shipping costlier than commercial shipping? All carriers charge a higher fee for delivery shipments to residential properties. They justify this by saying that residential areas are more challenging to access. The streets are narrower, and special precautions are taken for safe delivery. Various cities have different rules when it comes to residential freight shipping. For any carrier or trucking service provider, such laws make delivery more challenging than commercial shipping. There are rules and regulations to restrict the entry of certain vehicles, such as giant trucks.

  2. Carrier takes extra precautions such as sending smaller cars, trucks with tailgates, and better drivers. They also take the initiative to train their drivers for such deliveries. There is more pedestrian traffic and road restrictions in residential areas. It is optional that every tracking service provider charges a similar fee for delivery to residential areas. Some companies customize their charges according to the services they will render to you. The more precautions they will take for safe and timely delivery to a residential area, the higher their charges will be. When should you choose residential shipping? You cannot decide between residential or commercial shipping because the pickup or delivery locations are not in our hands. As part of our business, we have to do things that might not be good for making money. Determine the location of the pickup for delivery of your shipment, and let the carrier decide which type of shipping method will be best suited. A good trucking company will make sure they charge you appropriately. Commercial shipping is more common than residential shipping, making it cheaper and more affordable for all businesses. Due to maneuverability issues, your carrier will decide the best way to pick up or deliver. If you are choosing residential shipping, openly discuss all your needs and requirements with your carrier so they can make the desired changes to their services.

  3. Conclusion Apart from the fact that residential or commercial shipping depends on the location of the business from where pickup or drop-off is scheduled, these two are similar. The cost of residential shipping is justified, given the services you will get. Ensure you hire a flexible service provider that will adhere to your requirements. In residential shipping, the time boundaries are greater than in commercial shipping. It makes it even more challenging and expensive. But you should keep your needs in mind and choose the type of shipping that will fulfill all your requirements.
