When news broke that Canada Post workers had walked off the job, Halifax residents and businesses were left with an unsettling question: “How do I get my deliveries moving now?”
For many, the strike meant missed shipments, delayed customer orders, and a sense of helplessness as parcels sat waiting in warehouses. But in moments like these, local solutions often shine brightest — and that’s exactly where Get It Picked steps in.
A Local Story of Reliability
Picture this: A small shop owner in downtown Halifax, depending on Canada Post to send out customer orders before the weekend. Suddenly, the strike halts everything. Deadlines slip, customers wait, and the shop’s reputation hangs in the balance.
Instead of waiting in frustration, the owner turns to Get It Picked. With just a few taps, a driver arrives the same day, picks up the parcels, and delivers them straight to the customers’ doors. The shop doesn’t just keep business flowing — it builds even stronger trust with its community.
