Medical supply and DME · 2026
A DME supplier choosing a courier is choosing who can carry a bed or a concentrator into a home, what setup means, and what proof comes back. This page compares Dragonfly with services that publish those facts on their own sites. It is not a ranking. Prices and star ratings are left out.

Ask each option the same questions, including us. Does the page name the piece you actually ship? Is same-day a defined window or a word? Does setup mean assembly and demonstration, a courteous handoff, or something the page does not mention? Who trains the driver for a patient's home? What proof comes back? Does the price surge?
Dragonfly's published answers are on the medical supply page. White-glove DME delivery includes wheelchairs, hospital beds, oxygen equipment, and more, with setup assistance. In-home setup, assembly, and demonstration are the scope. It is not nursing or respiratory therapy. Return and exchange pickups are part of the work. STAT is available from 30 minutes. Drivers are background-checked and HIPAA-trained. Pricing is custom enterprise, based on volume, distance, and service requirements, with no surge pricing and no commission on order value. A lane is confirmed on the quote.
Tell us the equipment and the city. We'll come back within one business day.

These are medical supply and DME delivery services with a public page that names the equipment or the window. Dragonfly is listed first because this is our site. The other rows are MOVE Deliveries, Safeport Medical Delivery, ParaWorks, Dropoff, and in-house drivers. In-house drivers are a model, not a company.
No. There is no score and no star rating. A cell says what that company published on the page cited in Sources, or it says the cited page does not state it. Not stated is not the same as a no.
Only where the cited page says so. Dragonfly publishes in-home setup, assembly, and demonstration, and says that is not a clinical visit. MOVE Deliveries writes that installation, assembly, and instruction in use are separate unless a qualified service is arranged. The other rows are marked from their own pages.
Dragonfly does not publish a dollar price per delivery. Pricing is custom enterprise, based on volume, distance, and service requirements, with no surge and no commission on order value. How pricing works is on /medical-supplies. Competitor rate cards are omitted because the pages cited do not publish one.
