Question
I will keep things general but essentially I want to build a platform to allow local people in my area to utilize private trucks, trailers and vans for fast and convenient deliveries, drop offs, etc. Think about you pulling up to a Best Buy in your Honda Accord and you want to take home a 72" tv.
Testing a new concept and would like your feedback on whether it would make sense or not.
Answer
Really cool that you intuitively know to spent time investigating the probabilities before jumping into things. If there is a Startup Weekend near you do that - in 54 hours you will get to wrap a small team around the idea, learn + do customer validation an get expert help from local mentors. If that isn't a possibility, you could create a landing page that "sells" the idea as if it exists, then put a couple hundred behind targeted fb ads to see if you have something that people are interested in. At minimum, read Eric Reis' Lean Startup book to learn how to ensure you create a product that really fits a market. :) Get in touch if you want to chat more!
