What is your recent launch or top-selling product?
Recently, we’ve launched the Dismantle & Assembly Service (House Moving). This service simply means customers will get a fully-equipped driver and up to 2 helpers to dismantle and assemble their furniture to and fro the premise. A more convenient house moving experience starts with us!
Other than that, Lalamove launched the Long Haul Delivery service which offers interstate delivery with 4 x 4 Pickups, Vans and Lorries. Lalamove’s on-demand delivery model enables businesses to place a long-distance delivery order anytime. Customers can get matched with a 4 x 4 Pickup/Van/Lorry delivery partner instantly. Besides on-demand and same-day, customers can also reserve our vehicle for interstate delivery up to 30 days in advance. Our fleet of interstate delivery vehicles can meet the varying volume and size of commodities. With Lalamove, customers will only need to pay based on the figure that our app shows you! Our app will display the cost for the interstate delivery after assigning the pickup location, drop off location and vehicle type.
