What It Is

PickGo is a delivery platform operated in Japan by CBcloud. It provides services for businesses including urgent delivery, scheduled delivery, demand-surge coverage, LCC parcel delivery, and PickGo Direct, as well as the consumer-facing PickGo Express App. Its core value is not simply placing an order for a vehicle, but allowing shippers to compare and choose drivers from a network of roughly 100,000 people/vehicles based on vehicle type, temperature zone, equipment, ratings, reviews, and pickup time.

Core Capabilities

The platform supports pickup in as little as 30 minutes, coverage across all 47 prefectures in Japan, and 24/7/365 web ordering and operations support. Businesses can handle delivery requests, vehicle assignment, operation tracking, delivery status checks, billing, and payment management through the web interface. Case studies also mention sharing delivery status via URL. Supported vehicle types range from light cargo vehicles and motorcycles to small and large trucks. Temperature options include ambient, chilled, and frozen transport, and the service can be combined with air freight for integrated air-and-ground delivery. PickGo Direct is designed for orders placed through a company’s own website or service, supporting API or system integration, automated vehicle assignment, and branded delivery.

Pricing

Public pricing is mainly listed as starting delivery fees: business light-cargo delivery starts from 4,950 JPY, light cargo plus air freight from 10,900 JPY, and truck delivery from 29,500 JPY. For the consumer version, motorcycle delivery starts from 990 JPY and light-cargo delivery from 2,500 JPY. Dynamic pricing has been introduced for light-cargo delivery, affected by time, region, season, and additional handling work. Scheduled delivery is priced by distance or time, charged per vehicle, with custom quotes based on frequency. Account registration, driver comparison before confirmation, and estimates are free.

Pros and Cons

Strengths include a large driver network, the ability to choose drivers to reduce mismatches, strong emergency response capability, support for web-based management and system integration, plus 24/365 support and cargo insurance. The materials state that its proprietary rating system and human monitoring help keep delivery issue rates below 0.1%. Limitations include a clear focus on Japan, with no disclosed localization for China or cross-border capabilities; dynamic pricing and multiple plan types require consultation, limiting budget transparency; and there is insufficient information on permissions, compliance certifications, self-hosting, and public API documentation.

Who It’s For / Access from China

PickGo is suitable for companies in Japan that need instant delivery, store-to-store transfers, online supermarket logistics, food delivery, building materials transport, precision equipment delivery, scheduled routes, or branded last-mile delivery. Access from China is not mentioned in the available materials, so it is considered unknown.
