Carriers
Compete where shippers are already rate shopping.
RTNS puts your service in the same network as USPS, UPS, FedEx, and DHL — so shippers can select your product in the rate shop and drop off without a separate errand. Competitive and operationally ready on day one.
Same network
Your service lives alongside USPS, UPS, FedEx, and DHL — shippers rate shop and drop off in one place.
Day 1 ready
No location build-out. No behavior change required from shippers. Operationally sound from launch.
125M+
Annual parcel events already flowing through the RTNS network.
Launch into a network where your competition already lives.
The biggest challenge for any carrier entering the drop-off market isn't the product — it's the location. Shippers won't make an extra trip to a deli, a convenience store, or an unfamiliar storefront just to use a new carrier. They go where they already go. RTNS is that place.
When you join RTNS, your service is available at the same counters already handling USPS, UPS, FedEx, and DHL. A shipper using multi-carrier rate shopping can select your product, get the best rate or speed, and drop off at the same location they've always used — no extra errand, no new habit required.
Compete on price and speed. Let RTNS handle the drop-off experience. Operational from day one.
What joining the RTNS network means for your carrier.
Compete where shippers already drop off
Your service launches into the same locations handling USPS, UPS, FedEx, and DHL — shippers rate shop, pick your product, and drop off without a separate trip.
Operationally sound from day one
No location build-out, no new shipper behavior required. RTNS puts you on the same counter as the competition, ready to accept volume immediately.
Higher per-location parcel density
Multi-carrier drop-off drives more volume per location — your parcels arrive alongside every other carrier's, improving pickup density and route efficiency.
Verified intake before first scan
Structured counter records capture the handoff before your network processes a single scan — better first-mile data from the moment of acceptance.
Return flow support
Structured return intake data improves routing, consolidation, and disposition workflows.
Network-level reporting
Aggregate drop-off volume, carrier path performance, location throughput, and verification data across the entire RTNS network.
Workflow
How RTNS connects to carrier workflows.
Customer or seller arrives at RTNS-connected location
A return, seller drop-off, or outbound shipment arrives at a verified drop-off point. The counter accepts any supported carrier path in a single visit.
RTNS captures the intake event
The counter verifies and accepts the item. RTNS records the handoff: location, timestamp, order reference, carrier path, and acceptance status.
Verified signal sent to carrier workflow
RTNS sends the structured counter record to the carrier or transportation system. Routing and consolidation decisions begin with verified data.
Transportation workflow proceeds
The carrier receives cleaner intake data from a denser, more predictable consolidation point. Routing, load planning, and handoff coordination operate from a verified starting point.
Intake Record
What RTNS sends to the carrier workflow.
When an item is accepted at an RTNS-connected location, a structured intake record is created and sent to the carrier or transportation system — before your first carrier scan.
Bring Your Own Transportation
Use your existing USPS, UPS, FedEx, DHL, or FedEx EasyReturns routes and operations. RTNS provides verified visual intake and cleaner first-mile data.
Native LastMile
End-to-end transportation option for carriers or brands that need an additional last-mile layer.
RTNS Intake Record — Fields
Competitive on day one. No extra errands required.
RTNS puts your carrier in the same drop-off network as your competition — so shippers can choose you in the rate shop and drop off without going anywhere new.
