Abstract
⺠We review 30 recent surveys of UK urban retail freight distribution operations. ⺠The surveys include core goods deliveries, collections and service vehicle visits. ⺠Data include delivery rates, types of vehicle, loading locations and dwell times. ⺠The average business receives 10 deliveries and 7.6 service visits per week. ⺠Specialist independent stores can generate significant amounts of delivery activity.
