TOKYO -- More courier services in Japan are making early-morning deliveries as they try to reduce the number of repeat trips they make to get packages to customers.
At 7:45 a.m., a driver pulls up to a house in the central city of Nagoya. He hands over a parcel from Amazon to a woman dressed in a business suit at the door and heads off for his next delivery. That day he manages to drop off four parcels by 8 a.m.
