Whether you are a small business owner dispatching inventory or an individual sending a gift to a friend across town, choosing the right logistics service is crucial. As a leading parcel delivery app, Govah gives you the flexibility to move your goods exactly the way you want. But when you open the app, you are faced with a choice: Govah Solo Send or Govah Share Send.
Both options offer reliable, same-day delivery South Africa can count on, but they are built for entirely different needs. Here is a breakdown of how they compare and which one you should choose for your next delivery.
1. Govah Solo Send: Private Delivery for Small Loads
Think of Govah Solo Send as a dedicated courier just for you. Usually serviced by smaller utility vehicles like the Nissan NP200, this option provides direct, point-to-point delivery. Your item is picked up and taken straight to the receiver with no other stops.
- Capacity: 1 Large Item (e.g., a chest fridge, 200L - 400L)
- Ideal For: Small, single-item deliveries that need to get there quickly.
- Pricing: Lower base price. You pay for the entire vehicle capacity, ensuring maximum privacy and direct routing.
- Delivery Style: Private ride—direct from sender to receiver.
2. Govah Share Send: Shared Delivery for Bigger Loads
If you have multiple bulky items to move, Govah Share Send is your heavy lifter. Serviced by larger vehicles like the Toyota Hilux, this option utilizes Govah’s shared corridor technology. Instead of driving point-to-point, these vehicles move along optimized transit corridors, picking up and dropping off multiple parcels along the way.
- Capacity: Multiple Items (e.g., a fridge, a bed, and aluminium windows).
- Ideal For: Large, bulky deliveries or businesses moving multiple pieces.
- Pricing: Better value for bigger loads. The transportation cost is shared among multiple users along the corridor.
- Delivery Style: Shared ride—corridor-based delivery.
Which One Should You Choose?
Choose Solo Send when: You have a single item, you need privacy, and you want faster, direct delivery without any other stops.
Choose Share Send when: You have multiple items or bulky loads, and you want to save money by sharing the delivery cost along a designated route.
