Courier service is the pickup, transport, and delivery of parcels, documents, and small freight on a point-to-point basis. Unlike postal service, couriers provide direct routing, real-time tracking, and proof of delivery with signature capture. WTM Logistics provides courier service through its on-demand courier services.
According to Statistics Canada, the courier and local delivery industry has grown significantly with e-commerce expansion — making reliable courier service essential for Western Canadian businesses.
What are the main types of courier services?
Same-Day Courier — Pickup and delivery within the same business day for urgent shipments.

How does courier service work?
The courier picks up your shipment, transports it directly to the destination, and provides proof of delivery. WTM uses direct routing — no hub consolidation for courier shipments.
