In the USA, Paramount prints are normally handled by ETS (Deluxe Print Distribution). Local delivery might use a variety of carriers or trucking firms:

quote: Operating 32 depots across North America, we pick, pack and ship thousands of feature release prints and trailers each day. Each print and trailer is bar coded, scanned and tracked throughout the delivery cycle. We offer 24/7 phone support, and VMI. In addition, every print is watermarked using Deluxe's unique FCT - Forensic Coding Technology to aid in deterring piracy. We know the exact whereabouts of every customer shipment from the moment the freight is tendered through to delivery to the final consignee.
Technicolor Cinema Distribution is affiliated with Airborne/DHL. For the eastern USA, most prints are shipped out of their facility in Wilmington Ohio, co-located with the Airborne/DHL hub airport:
