Carrier of the week #6

Hello, my name is Frédéric, I am 56 years old, and I live in La Roche-sur-Yon. I work as a self-employed builder. I have 7 children and I am very happy in my life.

Frédéric X Cocolis

What was your main motivation for using Cocolis?

I started using Cocolis because I often had to visit my father in the Var. Since I have a large car and a trailer, I didn’t want to drive down with an empty trunk and pay a lot.

In a word, my main motivation was not to drive down with an empty trunk!

What routes do you travel frequently? On what occasions?

I often travel privately to France (Paris) and to Switzerland because my children are there.

I do this about 3 to 5 times a year.

What vehicle do you use to transport furniture and parcels?

It depends, either with a BMW or with a people carrier without rear seats, with or without a trailer.

How did you hear about Cocolis?

Not wanting to travel with an empty trunk, and since people around me talked a lot about carpooling, I thought there must be something like parcel-pooling. So I searched on GOOGLE for 'parcel transport between individuals' and I found you: Cocolis.

In 3 words, what do you think of the concept?

Efficient, service, economical.

What is the most unusual item you have transported?

Dressmaker’s mannequin, solar battery, toolbox, child car seat…

Has Cocolis allowed you to make great encounters?

Of course, even some amazing encounters. Last week, I transported a toolbox from a mother to her son, but unfortunately, the mother and son were in conflict. Being very attached to my family, I called the mother to encourage her to reconcile with her son, and that’s what she’s going to do.

Are you sensitive to environmental issues?

Yes, I am sensitive to them, but I can’t say it was my main motivation for using Cocolis.

How many deliveries have you made?

I have made about 25 deliveries, I would say.
