Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

The term combines 'delivery', derived from the Old French 'delivrer' (to free, hand over, or release) originating from Latin 'deliberare', and 'charge', from Old French 'charger' (to load, burden). Historically solidified during the expansion of commercial retail and postal services in the 19th and 20th centuries to denote the specific fee assessed for transporting goods to a destination.
