To CBD warriors, hand-delivering a document to a nearby office sounds like an easy task you can pull off in minutes and amaze your boss with your dedication, since city office buildings are so close together.

But when you get delayed by an unexpected hour-long meeting that stretches into four, you’ll start to really feel Murphy’s Law – anything that can go wrong will go wrong.

Leave this job to Lalamove. Its app will find you a driver in 12 seconds, and deliver within 55 minutes. This starts at a $10 base fare and 35 cents per KM for parcels under 8KG. And if there’s absolutely no time for lunch in your hectic work day, your driver can also deliver food from your favourite stall, and even buy items for you within 2 hours.

Not everyone is quick enough to master a new courier app to mail something within the day. And for first-timers, it’s hard to choose one from the many competitors with unfamiliar names.

But there’s one name all Singaporeans should recognise – good ol’ Singpost. It’s the mailing service that covers the most ground in Singapore, and happens to have a same-day door-to-door courier service called Speedpost Express. Because Singpost has an army of delivery staff on call, you’ll be guaranteed a match during delivery hours.

Simply order your shipment on Singpost’s website, or phone in to speak to an actual human who will get your delivery sorted. Items under 5KG get delivered in 2 hours for $15 within the CBD, and for $25 outside the CBD.

8. GOGOX – For flexible moving and delivery services (from $9)


Formerly known as Gogovan, GOGOX takes the pain out of moving as it lets you order a van or truck to deliver bulky items with very short notice. You can even pay a little more for multiple helpers to heave all your barang to your destination faster than your arms and legs could.

Fewer people know that the GOGOX app also lets you order deliveries of smaller items under 3KG within 2 hours from $9, and can help you pick up and deliver food or flowers to surprise an elderly, sick, or busy loved one.

9. GrabExpress – For deliveries protected by insurance (from $6)

Grab helps us zoom to work and order food when we’re too caught up to get it ourselves. And when we want one delivery completed just as quickly, there’s a courier service right in the same app called GrabExpress, so we don’t need to install a brand new app and register our personal info all over again.

Deliveries under 5KG start at $6 plus an additional $1 per KM. Those who feel kancheong that their delivery might get lost or broken on the way can rest assured that each package is insured for up to $500. So in case something happens to your item – touch wood – you won’t have to pay to get it replaced.

GrabExpress also delivers flowers, food, and even fragile cakes for you to send a loved one a “just because” present. While delivery is not round the clock, it is available from 8AM–11PM.
