Individuals and businesses can send or receive lunchboxes, groceries, medicines, documents, other foot items, and so on. Moreover, the fare is calculated on a per-kilometer basis just like Swiggy which means you could end up with a cheap cost to get the item delivered, unlike WeFast which charges a hefty sum to begin with.

Well, we had to add Porter to the list because of its reliability and versatility. Whether you want to courier a few kilograms or a few hundreds, Porter is a to-go delivery service that lets you choose the mode of transport. Choose a bike for faster delivery while a pick-up truck can carry a bulk and the best thing is, you are charged as you use it and not the same for different mode of transport. Porter is a hyperlocal same day delivery service that you can call blindfoldedly and expect reliable solutions available in 10+ major cities.
Wrapping Up
We have used most of these apps and many will get the job done. Without being biased, Borzo or WeFast (both are the same) stands as a personal favorite because it’s a widely available and trusted same-day delivery app out there. Similarly, Dunzo is hyperlocal which means your pickups and deliveries are fulfilled at lightning speed while others might take a few hours for the same. Uber is among the best ones similar to Swiggy Genie. Porter is a well-established delivery service provider with a huge network and definitely a presence in the enlisted cities.
