They were not always good, especially recently- messenger was late, a few times had the wrong address etc., but this time it was totally unacceptable from the beginning - the guy on the phone was rude, disrespectful and not even letting me finish giving him the address, was constantly interrupting. His tone was like he's the only one in the whole world who can pick up and deliver the 3lb bag from the center of Manhattan to Manhattan Downtown :-) So I just hung up to not waste my time and tried LightSpeed Express. LightSpeed Express is fast, respectful, responsible, professional, friendly. Arrived and delivered so fast, I didn't believe. Delivery guy is smart, friendly and professional. Would like to know his name. Guy on the phone, Pablo, is very detail oriented and focused on client's needs (unlike the NYC messenger one). Price is same as NYC Messenger, BTW. The best part is that our client, who received delivery, was super happy about their service as well. Used their service on Friday January 24 for delivery from Flatiron area to Church street Manhattan. Will use LightSpeed Delivery again and recommend to everyone.

Really affordable too - for a large package that weighed about 6 lbs it was $16 from the UWS to Times Square. AMAZING.

Bonus: They also coordinate with shipping services for pickup in their store. In my case, I opted to walk the one-block to a nearby FedEx as I had a next day by 12 pm delivery deadline.

Fast-, careful and efficient. I needed flowers from what is left of the flower district, in a hurry... to Brooklyn. Soon after I got the confirmation and the guy was there. Picked up some heavy, fragile items and got them to me in more than enough time. I definitely would use them again. Other messenger services say they are going to be there and put me on the list. They are nearly always delayed. Using STOSH saves me time and money. Weekly runs- save me hours in a day so I can focus on my biz. Try them if you send a lot . They'll give u a break for bulk runs. A friend used them for a Dumbo run to Manhattan... no one does that! read more

I phoned FOTC from London today to ask them to pick up a present from a store in NYC and have it delivered to the hotel my parents are staying at for Christmas, ready for their arrival. Being thousands of miles away I was anxious that everything would run smoothly, but the guy on the phone was so helpful and made sure it was delivered to the correct department of the hotel. They collected and delivered the package in record time and for a very reasonable price. I know its only another drop off, but you have been part of putting a huge smile on my parents face as I was unable to get to them before they left for NY. Thank you so much! read more

Incredibly impressed with how quickly this company was able to assist me! I literally reached out at 7:30am with a Hail Mary request for an item I needed to have picked up at 10am (same day) and delivered by 11:30am. I received a call within 10 minutes and they were able to take care of everything for a reasonable price. Will for sure be using them for all of my messenger service needs going forward! read more
