A Delaware-based provider of last-mile delivery logistics said it is now offering services in Hartford, Windsor and Stamford.

DeliveryCircle allows companies and shoppers to schedule deliveries of goods through its website and mobile app. Like ride-sharing services Uber and Lyft, DeliveryCircle’s drivers are independent contractors.

The company says it offers business-to-business, business-to-consumer and consumer-to-consumer deliveries.

The company, which is now operating in nine states, said Wednesday that it’s working with “a handful” of Connecticut retailers so far.
