Delivery Connecting to the Sunshine Coast

Delivering to the Sunshine Coast with Numode

“I love my job,” says Lata Singh, company driver with Numode Delivery. “Every morning, I get to travel to the beautiful Sunshine Coast and get paid for it,” laughs Lata.

Numode’s first departure for the Sunshine Coast is at 7:30 a.m., with an 8:10 a.m. arrival in Langdale. Depending on the number of pickups and deliveries, Lata is usually on the 10:50 a.m. ferry heading back to West Vancouver. “I just put on my music and enjoy the scenery,” says Lata.

Due to high demand, Numode Delivery added an additional sprinter with a 9:50 a.m. departure from Vancouver.

“We have seen tremendous growth in remote and home deliveries,” adds Andrew Kronquist, President of Numode. “We’re always trying to find new ways to better serve our customers and community, so adding a second vehicle made sense.”

Delivering to the Sunshine Coast can sometimes be challenging. “The most difficult part is always the BC ferry schedule,” adds Bill, who usually takes the 9:50 a.m. ferry to Langdale.

While most people enjoy the 40-minute ferry ride, businesses and residents on the Coast can find it cumbersome.

“I have lived in Sechelt for the past 10 years,” says Joan, a retired teacher from Vancouver. Known as the “Land Between Two Waters,” Sechelt has a population of around 10,000 residents.

Situated right on the ocean, Sechelt has the laid-back vibe that makes the Sunshine Coast so appealing. While Joan loves the lifestyle the Sunshine Coast offers, it can sometimes be difficult to find items locally.

“Numode is awesome,” says Joan. “I usually have Numode pick up packages from Vancouver once per week and bring them to my front doorstep the next day.”

Mark Peterson owns a small heating and air conditioning company based out of Gibsons, BC. Having a reliable courier to bring supplies from Metro Vancouver is crucial for his business.

“The fact that I can order supplies from Vancouver at 3 p.m. and have them delivered next day to Gibsons by noon is remarkable,” says Mark. “Many of our jobs require parts that we have to get from Vancouver to complete the work.”

In the case of wrong or damaged parts, Numode Delivery also offers return service from Sechelt or Gibsons back to Vancouver. Drivers will usually pick up scheduled returns while delivering shipments back to Metro Vancouver.

“Numode Delivery really offers a full service to our community,” says Mark.

Commitment and Growth

Numode Delivery started in 2017 based out of Richmond, BC. By 2019, Numode began daily service to Vancouver Island and the Sunshine Coast. Numode’s commitment to providing reliable delivery solutions has led to many long-standing partnerships.

“It’s always about the people,” says Andrew. “From our drivers to our office staff, we have a great group of individuals dedicated to helping customers get their packages on time.”
