In-House Delivery Cost Estimator

Plug in your numbers, see what in-house delivery really costs, and decide whether managed coverage makes more sense for your operation.

Many operations underestimate the true cost of in-house delivery. This estimator accounts for the expenses that are often overlooked.

Days per Week

Employer burden includes payroll taxes (FICA), federal and state unemployment insurance, workers' comp, and other employment-related costs. Many operations fall in the 15–25% range depending on state and coverage levels. 20% is a reasonable planning assumption. Benefit-heavy packages will increase total burden.
