About Blue Streak:

Blue Streak Couriers is a leading provider of customized transportation and delivery solutions, specializing in last-mile delivery services. We are committed to ensuring timely, reliable, and efficient deliveries that meet the unique needs of our customers. With a focus on operational excellence and customer satisfaction, Blue Streak partners with a network of skilled independent contractors and dedicated employees to deliver exceptional service. Our team-driven culture promotes growth, innovation, and continuous improvement, making Blue Streak a great place to build a rewarding career.

Blue Streak began in 1984 as a small courier in Jacksonville, Florida. In its early years, the company operated mostly in northeast Florida, offering same-day delivery service to local businesses and organizations. From its origin, Blue Streak has maintained its dedication to offering the most professional, reliable, and friendly service to its customers.

In 2005, Harold Boyett, a 20-year UPS employee, became the new owner of Blue Streak Couriers. He saw great potential for the small courier to become a multi-state, versatile logistics company. With more than a decade of management in transportation under his belt and an enthusiastic devotion to enhancing and expanding a small business, Boyett set forth on his mission to transform Blue Streak into a southeastern regional carrier.

In addition to expanding geographically in the past decade, Blue Streak has also widened the scope of industries it serves. Initially, the courier company worked mostly with banks, moving deposits and documents throughout the city. Now Blue Streak serves a much greater variety of customers, including medical labs, restaurants suppliers, and final mile logistics.

Boyett attributes the company’s success to its steadfast, hard-working team – some of whom have been at Blue Streak as long or longer than he has. “I am fortunate to work with a wonderful group of individuals who offer their amazing talents and dedication every day. Together, we strive to bring our customers the most innovative and reliable service possible.”
