Porterchain
Dedicated vehicle vs shared courier capacity
Dedicated capacity fits predictable high-volume lanes. Shared courier capacity fits overflow and uneven demand. Porterchain can run both patterns under one partner — choose based on volume stability, not marketing labels.
| Dimension | Porterchain | Shared ad hoc courier only |
|---|---|---|
| Best fit | Dedicated routes for recurring volume; shared capacity for overflow and spikes — one partner for both. | Shared-only booking often lacks reserved capacity when volume spikes mid-week. |
| Cost structure | Dedicated programs quoted to lane volume; shared runs quoted per request with written confirmation. | Per-booking rates without reserved capacity can swing with demand. |
| Accountability | Same proof and escalation standards whether the vehicle is dedicated or shared that day. | Different couriers mean different proof quality and escalation paths. |
