Rush—or STAT—Service is Excel Courier’s on-demand option for time-critical deliveries. This service is for situations that require faster turnaround than Regular Service but don’t need the extreme urgency of Deadline Service. With a typical two-hour turnaround from pickup to delivery, Rush/STAT service is perfect for time-sensitive shipments that require quick action but aren't mission-critical.
STAT stands for “immediately,” a term commonly used in medical and data center environments where speed is crucial. This service is designed for high-priority deliveries where delays are not an option.
Hospitals and labs needing ambient or properly temperature-packaged specimen transport
Distributors requiring hardware swaps or parts delivery
Legal offices submitting time-sensitive court filings
Medical and pharmaceutical companies moving test kits or supplies with tighter delivery windows
Moving medical supplies from a distribution center to a satellite location within a short window
STAT Service provides a balance of urgency and affordability for businesses that need fast, responsive service without going full-throttle.
Rush and Stat are On-Demand Delivery courier services available 24/7/365
Excel Courier’s STAT Service offers the speed you need without the premium cost of deadline-based delivery. It’s the ideal option when timing matters but extreme urgency isn’t required. With a two-hour delivery window and direct routing, STAT keeps your business moving forward with confidence.
