★ The Stakes

Shoppers blame the retailer, not the carrier.

An appliance is a considered, high-value purchase. When the delivery is the weak link, the review names your brand, not the carrier that dropped a fridge at the kerb.

47%

of consumers hold retailers accountable for failed deliveries, not the carrier.

73%

of shoppers say on-time arrival is core to a great delivery experience, even more important than low-cost shipping or returns.

65%

of consumers say a great delivery experience makes them return to a retailer, even if it costs more than competitors.

61%

of consumers abandon carts when delivery isn't flexible, with no scheduling options or time windows.

54%

of shoppers would abandon a retailer permanently due to unresolved delivery issues or poor post-purchase support.

8–20%

of parcels fail to reach the recipient on the first attempt across the industry, depending on carrier and delivery type.

99.95%

First Day Delivery Success is what PicUp holds against that benchmark, at scale, week after week.

Consumer statistics: Bringg, The Top 3 2025 Last-Mile Trends and 2026 Outlook, January 2026. First-attempt failure range: published estimates of 8% (FreightWaves / OneRail) to 20% (Harvard Business Review). PicUp figure is our own measured performance, described below.

01The Problem

A great appliance, let down at the door.

Large appliances are heavy, valuable and awkward. Left at the kerb in a box, they turn an online purchase into a problem the customer has to solve alone.

  • No two-person capacity, so heavy appliances get left at the door.
  • No unpack, placement or packaging removal, leaving a mess behind.
  • Damage from networks not built for whitegoods and large appliances.
  • Poor tracking and support that undermine a high-value online purchase.
For appliance ecommerce the delivery completes the purchase. Choosing on price alone risks returns, negative reviews and lost repeat business.
02The Insight

For appliances, delivery is where the review is won.

Ecommerce appliance brands live and die on reviews. PicUp brings two-person teams, install-ready placement and packaging removal, so the delivery is the moment your customer decides to recommend you.

Case Study

Bulky last-mile for the leading global e-commerce platform

Challenge

A bulky last-mile partner was needed across the Brisbane metro region for a client with notoriously high delivery standards. Existing carriers could not meet first-delivery-success requirements, or deliver the fleet flexibility that sharp volume swings demand.

Solution

A fleet mix of 1T–2T vans servicing Brisbane Metro 7 days per week, with trained two-person teams for heavy and awkward items. Unique to PicUp, our DTC–B2B–B2B2C network lets the fleet flex as volume swings necessitate: surging when needed, pulling back when not.

Result

99.95% First Day Delivery Success, sustained across an average of 2,000 bulky last-mile deliveries every week.

Proven capability at scale: ~2,000 bulky deliveries per week

★ Built for Bulky

Built for appliances. Up to 3m and 150kg.
