We have been partnering with Eveready for all of our Courier and custom delivery needs for almost 15 years. During this time, Eveready has consistently performed and gone out of their way to accommodate our schedule. We particularly appreciate their ability to deliver loads to difficult to access areas in Manhattan so we don't have to deal with large trucks parked on narrow streets. We have used them to delivery time critical loads as far away as Maine and Virginia. Whenever we have delivery needs, count on Eveready to get it done on time and at a great price.

We've had a partnership with Eveready Express for well over 10 years and I can honestly say that Keith and his team of superstars always exceed our expectations. From large moves up the east coast to local deliveries, their service is outstanding. The drivers are professionals and friendly! Not once have we been disappointed when we book with Eveready.In our monthly team meetings someone always mentions an idea or two we can learn from Eveready Express. Lobster Life Systems is proud to do business with Eveready and model the culture Keith has built over the years.

Literally the most helpful delivery I’ve ever had. Daniel was extremely friendly and flexible; dealing with everything the Bronx was throwing at him — 90 degree weather, horrible traffic on a one way street and a less than great parking situation; then STILL took the time to make sure he brought all FORTY EIGHT of my heavy packages (I work in marketing and ordered over 1,300 custom umbrellas) to both my basement AND the second floor of my building. He was fast, but he wasn’t rushing and throwing things around like he wanted to get out of there, either. He handled my packages with care. Usually delivery drivers in my area refuse to take packages beyond the front entrance, so Daniel was far beyond what I expected. If all Eveready Express delivery drivers are like this, then I’m going to use them for every order going forward.

I am very pleased with the service I received from Eveready Express. They were professional and got the job done in a very timely manner. I was impressed with the customer service on the phone and how quickly the pick up and delivery was accomplished. The best part was getting the photos when they picked up and delivered. So much better than UPS!!

Needed a couple of pallets moved for an upcoming trade show to our exhibit company a few miles away. From start to finish, the customer service was excellent and very informative. The driver was courteous and prompt and both the pick up and delivery went smoothly. Great service and can't wait to use for our next show!

Eveready was a wonderful company to work with! I had a client that got let down by another freight service the afternoon before their event and Keith and the Eveready team were so helpful and kept us updated throughout the whole process. They managed to help us out when we were in a real jam and I so appreciate it!

I engaged Eveready Express for a very last minute, urgent business need to transport a few items from a NJ office to NYC same day (so last minute that I called them around 3:30 and needed them to pick up the items before 5pm). The great reviews are what initially caught my eye and I have to agree, the service was fantastic!! Not only did they pick up and drop off within the timeframe I needed, I also received email confirmations along the way once my items were picked up, in transit, and delivered with photo proof! The representatives were very courteous and informative and I'm glad this worked out so smoothly. I left one star off because it was more expensive than I had anticipated BUT considering the distance, restrictive timeframe, and awesome result, I'd say it was worth it in the end.

I have been doing business with Eveready for a few years, utilizing them for urgent rush shipments in the Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York area. They are consistent, great priced and have great communcation. I truly value the partnership between the company I work for and them. Keith and his team are an excellent option for anyone needing assistance in the shipping and logistics industry. When others fall short, I know Eveready will treat my shipments as if they are there own.

Eveready Express did a great job. We had an emergency and needed a particular part, Eveready picked up the part and delivered to our location. We were able to satisfy our Customer and complete the job. The Courier notified me via email when they picked up the parts and notified me when they delivered the material with a time stamped copy of the receipt. They were fast and courteous. I would definitely recommend this company.
