Episode description

Every day, truck drivers are out battling rush hour traffic, maneuvering through narrow city streets, circling for parking, emitting exhaust — all to get you your package as fast as possible. For the sake of our cities, and our planet, things have to change.

The future of delivery will be smaller, less loud, and more sustainable. In fact, in the future, you package might just find its way to you.
