The logistics industry is the leader of the pack when it comes to using drones. Although still not fully developed, there are plenty of potential use cases of cargo UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles). So, today we’re talking about the future of drones in transportation and logistics.
In the last few years, the competition to launch passenger drones caught the eye of the public. And there’s no surprise here. At the end of the day, the idea is both fun and convenient. However, the real progress when it comes to these is happening in the logistics sector.
While flying taxis are cool, this is not a proven technology. And the same can’t be said for the cargo drones. We’ve already seen them delivering in backyards and taking medications to inaccessible locations. There are even UAVs transporting parts from one side of the warehouse to another.

Each of these categories could easily change what we think the conventional ways of doing certain tasks are. Some of the applications are already well-developed. And because of them, many new sub-industries are growing.
As you can expect, the civil drone market is on a fast track. Experts suggest that it will experience a growth of around 11% in the next five to six years. Many industries, the moving industry included, will have a lot of benefits, especially cost-wise. So, you shouldn’t be surprised if the next time you decide to move and call homegrownmoving.com, they ask you if your preferred way of relocation would be with a regular truck or a UAV.
