This study evaluated geographically focused incentives to receivers for their commitment to accept off-hour deliveries (OHD). A behavioral microsimulation was used to describe the joint decision of carriers and receivers toward OHD. The study assessed the performance of incentive structures by analyzing the percentage of trucks and deliveries that would switch to OHD and the budget required for the implementation of OHD. The results were analyzed in conjunction with previous theoretical research on the benefits of providing incentives by geographic location. Policy recommendations shed light on the implementation of OHD programs.
