“Dan” Delivers
His name is Steve, but he’s getting used to being called Dan. “I don’t mind it,” said Steve Mock, owner of Courier Dan, who used his son’s name in the business moniker for rhyming purposes. By now, you’ve probably seen Steve around the Lake in his bright
yellow Toyota Scion. (The car is a vestige of his days as a yellow pages ad salesman.) Steve’s mission is to save people nuisance trips to Roanoke, Rocky Mount, Lynchburg and other surroundingareas, delivering “basically anything that will fit in the Scion.” He provides one-way and roundtrip pickup anddropoff services for business or personal items. A trip to Roanoke is $15 one-way and $27 roundtrip. You cancall for same-day service, although Steve appreciates at least a day’s notice. 540.293.5825
