About this service
What our Small Business Courier service covers
Most small businesses don’t need a van and driver every day, but when an order, sample or part has to arrive today, next-day isn’t fast enough. Same Day Couriers Kent collects from your shop, workshop, office or unit in Kent and drives it straight to your customer, supplier or another branch, anywhere in the UK.
When do small businesses use us?
When a customer needs an order today and you’d lose them otherwise. When a supplier has sent the wrong part and the right one is a long drive away. When samples or a quote have to be in front of a buyer by the morning, or stock needs moving between your own sites. Retailers, trades, manufacturers, agencies and professional offices all use the same service.
How do you book?
Send us the collection and delivery postcodes, what’s going and when. We come back with a price and the earliest collection time, and once you accept, the driver is on the way. If you find yourself booking the same journey regularly, a scheduled run saves you arranging it each time.
How do you keep your customer informed?
You get live updates from the driver and proof of delivery with the recipient’s name and time, ready to forward to your customer. Your delivery promise is kept, and you have the record to show it.
What can you send?
Anything from an envelope on a motorcycle to boxes and pallets in a van, or heavier loads on a larger vehicle with a tail-lift. Tell us the size and weight and we’ll match the vehicle, so you’re not paying for space you don’t use.
