Local knowledge

Business deliveries from Sittingbourne

Can you move samples from Kent Science Park?

Yes. Kent Science Park, south of the town in ME9, describes itself as 47 buildings across 65 acres, with a large community of agritech, biotech and biopharma businesses. Its tenants send laboratory samples, research materials and instrument parts at short notice. You pack diagnostic specimens to UN3373, and any dangerous goods need declaring when you enquire, because ADR rules govern how they travel.

What about the Eurolink estates and the north of town?

Eurolink is Sittingbourne’s main industrial and distribution area, built on former brickworks land on the east side of town around Swale Way and Bingham Road, including Eurolink 4 and Precision 2 Business Park. Swale Way, the northern relief road, links it straight to the A249, so your collection avoids the town centre. Further north, Kemsley Paper Mill and Ridham Dock add heavy industrial and port traffic. For pallets, tell us the count, type and weight.

Which motorway, and how long?

The A249 meets M2 junction 5 within a few miles and carries on south to M20 junction 7 near Maidstone. We take the M2 for London and the Dartford Crossing, and the M20 for Ashford, Folkestone and the Channel Tunnel. Outside peak hours, a van from Sittingbourne typically reaches M25 junction 2 in 35 to 50 minutes, central London in 1 hour 10 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes and Heathrow’s cargo area in 1 hour 25 minutes to 1 hour 55 minutes.

Via Swale Way, Sittingbourne’s northern relief road, to the A249 and then M2 junction 5, typically 10 to 15 minutes outside peak hours. Same Day Couriers Kent uses that route to keep Eurolink collections out of the town centre.

Yes. The A249 continues south past M2 junction 5 to M20 junction 7 near Maidstone. Same Day Couriers Kent takes that route when your consignment is heading for Ashford, Folkestone, the Channel Tunnel or the southern M25, and the M2 for London or the Dartford Crossing.

Not normally. For most same-day jobs, Same Day Couriers Kent assigns one driver who collects from your Sittingbourne address and travels straight to the delivery destination. Your consignment isn’t normally taken to a depot, sorted or moved between vehicles, and you get live updates on the way.

Yes. Same Day Couriers Kent moves pallets from Sittingbourne the same day in a van or larger vehicle matched to the load. A standard UK pallet is 1200 by 1000 mm and a Euro pallet 1200 by 800 mm, so give us the pallet type, count and weight.

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.
