Local knowledge

Business deliveries from Medway

Which part of Medway are you sending from?

Medway’s business base is spread across five towns rather than one centre, and we collect from all of it. That includes Medway City Estate on the Frindsbury Peninsula, Innovation Park Medway at Rochester Airport, Gillingham Business Park, Chatham Maritime and Kingsnorth Industrial Estate near Hoo. Rochester, Strood, Chatham, Gillingham and Rainham each have their own page with more local detail.

How quickly can you get it out of Medway?

It depends which side of the river you’re on, because four M2 junctions serve Medway. Junction 1 takes the A289 for Strood, Medway City Estate and Hoo. Junction 2 carries the A228 towards Cuxton. Junction 3 meets the A229 for Chatham and Rochester Airport, with Bluebell Hill running down to the M20. Junction 4 takes the A278 into Gillingham and Rainham. The Medway Tunnel links Chatham Maritime to the Frindsbury side. Outside peak hours, a van from Rochester or Chatham typically reaches M25 junction 2 in 20 to 30 minutes, central London in 60 to 90 minutes and Heathrow’s cargo area in 75 to 105 minutes.

What do Medway businesses usually send?

Mostly things that can’t wait: a replacement part for a stopped line, components from the Rochester Airport estates to a customer in the Midlands, plant spares for a site on the Hoo Peninsula, specimens for Medway Maritime Hospital in Gillingham, or bundles for Medway County Court at Gun Wharf, Chatham. We send the vehicle that fits, from a motorcycle for documents to a van or larger vehicle for pallets.

Why not a parcel network?

The Same Day Couriers Kent difference

  • Less handling on the way

    For most same-day jobs, your consignment travels directly with the assigned driver. It is not normally taken to a depot, sorted or moved between vehicles.

  • The vehicle you actually need

    We match the vehicle to your job, from a motorcycle for documents to a 7.5-tonne lorry with tail-lift for pallets, so you're not paying for spare capacity.

  • You know where it is

    The driver keeps you updated while the job is running, and proof of delivery gives you the recipient's name and the time of handover.

  • Cover agreed before you book

    Every consignment includes cover up to £100. Worth more? Tell us the value and, where extra insurance can be arranged, we confirm the cover and cost before you accept.
