Tell us where it's going from, where it's going to, and what it is.

Us
We come back with a price and confirm the earliest time we can collect.

You
If the price and collection time suit you, accept it and we book the job.
Nothing is booked until you accept. If your goods are worth more than £100, we confirm the level of extra cover and any extra cost before you say yes, so you know exactly what's covered.
Us
We choose the most suitable driver and vehicle for your consignment.
You don't have to pick the vehicle yourself. We match it to the size and weight of your job, using our own vehicles with drivers based throughout Kent, or a trusted partner, so you don't pay for capacity you don't need.
Driver
The driver collects from your address and travels direct to the delivery destination.
For most same-day jobs, your consignment travels directly with the assigned driver, not via a depot or sorting system. Once the driver is on the way, you get live updates, and proof of delivery records the recipient's name and the time.
No depots, no sorting
For most same-day jobs, the driver who collects your consignment is the one who hands it over, with live updates on the way.
Good to know

Send us the collection postcode, the delivery postcode, details of the item and when it needs collecting. We'll come back with a price and the earliest available collection time. If you're not sure of the exact size or weight, a rough figure is fine. Enquiries are answered 24/7.
Your consignment is not normally taken to a depot, put through a sorting system or transferred between vehicles. We are not a conventional parcel network: for most same-day jobs, your goods travel directly with the driver we assign.

You don’t have to pick the vehicle yourself. Just tell us the size and weight. We match the vehicle to your job, from a motorcycle or small car for documents and small parts, through vans, to larger commercial vehicles for pallets and heavy loads, rather than charging you for capacity you don’t need. To check what each one typically carries, see our vehicle network.
Every consignment includes cover up to £100 as standard. Additional insurance is not automatically included in the standard quotation.
That way you know exactly what’s covered before anything is booked.
