Direct and Extend describe fulfillment paths. - Shippers use one Hovership account, one Hovership Platform workflow, one Hovership Delivery tracking destination, one billing relationship, and one support path across qualified Hovership Delivery shipments. - Live ETA, driver identity, driver location, scan depth, exception timing, proof, and specialized handling can vary by service level, partner, lane, market, route state, and data freshness. - Recipient-recovery safeguards apply to eligible delivery exceptions and can fail open when outreach is unavailable because of connectivity, recipient contactability, workflow, or other operational constraints. - Hovership Delivery is US-focused and does not provide international shipping or customs handling. - Hovership Delivery serves physical street addresses, not PO Boxes or military mail addresses. - Pricing and savings depend on the actual lane, service, weight, dimensions, volume, handling, and comparison contract. Hovership does not claim one universal savings percentage for every shipment. - Supported creation paths include the Hovership Platform dashboard, data workflows, commerce connections, and REST API integrations. ## Reference - [Facts](https://www.hovership.com/facts/): Current Hovership reference page. - [Contact](https://www.hovership.com/contact/): Sales, support, and operating questions. - [Privacy](https://www.hovership.com/privacy-policy/): Website and service privacy information. - [Sitemap](https://www.hovership.com/sitemap-index.xml): Public URL inventory.
