What size / weights do you take for your parcel services?

The maximum length is 2.1 metres for a parcel, if its longer/bigger then it would need to go by our Express Services.

Weight restrictions apply to the parcels, it can be no heavier than 30kgs as thats what H&S regulations deem the heaviest a person can safely carry.
We collect and deliver based on cubic weights, this is a fair system that gives us the volume of a package. If you don't know how to work this out, just give us a call on 0844 884 3331.

You track your vehicles, why?

So that you know exactly where your goods are at all times. We can accurately tell you time of delivery from tracking, monitor our drivers speeds and also ensure no bad driving practices take place. We can even email you a copy of the tracking report, useful if we have delivered and your customer has gone home.

Are you insured?

Yes, we have Goods in Transit insurance to the value of £30k, most companies only have up to 10k and the Royal Mail only have £2.5k. When you have spent a lot of time and money manufacturing items, you want them to be fully insured so that you have peace of mind, if your goods are worth more than 30k we can provide extra coverage as part of our premium services.
Please check our t&c's as there are some exclusions.
