If one was in a big city, one could send the big packages through normal delivery routes (UPS, Fedex, USPS, or by motorized van), and send the small convenient stuff by bike.

There are already big companies experimenting with bike deliveries.

Assuming your TV fits, there is no reason why it can't be done by bike.

I suppose if the per package shipping cost for the TV is greater than for bicycle brake cable, then it may still be economical to deliver by bike.
