Last mile delivery should be done by smaller trucks

In Berlin I enjoyed watching the small delivery trucks rolling all over the place. A bunch of the mail is also delivered by trikes. They just pedal around the city doing mail delivery work on these large yellow trikes with big cargo bays. It was phenomenal, quiet, and calm.
