Services

Below is a brief description of each of the services we offer. For more information, a full brochure including a list of prices, or a free quote please do not hesitate to contact us.

Parcels:
We are members of a number of different parcel networks, meaning not only can we pass on preferential rates, but we can also select the carrier that is most suited to your specific needs. We select the best network for your parcel based on price, speed of delivery, size of item, insurance cover and track-ability. So whether you need to send multiple daily items throughout the UK or a birthday present to your relations in Australia, we can tailor a quote for you.

Pallets:
We are members of a number of pallet networks, and by sending a sufficient volume of pallets each week we have negotiated an extremely competitive price. We can assess which network would be most cost effective for your delivery destination, and have full coverage of both the UK and Europe by road. In addition, we can even send pallets or flight cases via airmail to anywhere in the world.

Economy Same-Day:
We offer two types of same-day service. Our Economy service is designed for goods which are not time critical for destinations within the UK. We guarantee delivery within 14 days of booking, and will confirm with you when the goods can be delivered. This provides all the security of a same-day service, without your items having to pass through a next-day network of hubs, conveyors and vehicles, but without the full price of a dedicated vehicle. This is particularly beneficial for delicate and fragile items, or bulky items which are too big or heavy for next-day freight. We aim to extend this service to mainland Europe soon.

Dedicated Same-Day:
Our fleet of dedicated vehicles is ready to respond to your delivery requirements. We can provide a vehicle within 30 minutes of your call to deliver to anywhere in the UK or Europe. With a national network of same-day couriers we can respond to any location with any type of vehicle. All of these vehicles are run by trained, professional and smart drivers and many come with packing materials and straps for the safe transit of finished joinery, furniture, antiques and other fragile items.

We can also tailor vehicles to your specific needs. These vehicles can be provided on a daily, weekly or permanent basis to cover local or national deliveries and collections, either at a drop rate or fixed daily rate.

Storage:
We have access to a number of storage facilities throughout the UK, all of which proved secure, heated and ventilated storage for a range of items from pallets to vehicles to 40ft shipping containers. Some of these facilities offer 24 hour access and all have fork lift facilities.

Worldwide Shipping & Removals:
We have links with a local company which provides a full range of removal services, both in the UK and worldwide. We have an established relationship with two major international shipping companies based strategically in the UK, and can move small parcels to large containers by road, sea or air.

Vehicle Movements:
We are looking to establish and develop a branch of the company dedicated to vehicle movements, from single vehicles to full transporters. If you would be interested in being part of this development, please get in touch!

Other Services:
Through our extensive experience in the courier and haulage industry we pride ourselves in tailoring a distribution service to your specific requirements. If you require any service that we have not already mentioned, please get in touch anyway - we love a challenge!
