Smog Free Deliveries in Edmonton

Did you know that ACS Express started in 1988 as a bike courier only company?

Today, 24 years after our humble beginning, we boast the largest fleet of bike couriers in Edmonton. Since 1988 all downtown to downtown envelopes have been delivered smog free. Even in the harsh winter conditions that Edmontonians experience, our ACS Express bikers are out there working hard for our clients.

In our continued efforts to be good environmental stewards, we are initiating two more solutions that will aid us in becoming a more environmentally friendly company.
-We have expanded our area of green delivery to include the short west area of downtown Edmonton, which is now served mostly by bicycle courier.
-In early 2013 ACS Express will implement a new software package coupled with hi-tech scanning devices that will enable our operations to reduce paper both in our offices and in the field, further reducing our carbon footprint.

In addition to the above initiatives, 50% of our office staff commute to our office by either bicycle, public transit or (LEV) low emission vehicle.

Our focus today echoes our slogan; " fast, reliable, on-time delivery since 1988" utilizing fuel efficient vehicles and a commitment to both our customers and the environment.

Is winter really ending here in Edmonton?

After a long, harsh winter we are now enjoying some beautiful weather. As a courier service, our drivers and bikers had many challenges to deal with this winter, with icy, snow covered roads, chilling winds and more nasty weather and cold temps thrown at us than the average Edmonton winter.

Thanks to our valued clients for keeping us busy and hats off to all of our delivery personnel for rock solid service. Good job everyone!

Let's hope that with spring just two days away, we will be treated to some warm sunny weather!
