Bank Holiday Courier Delivery

Need goods collected or delivered on a bank holiday? Send us the route, ready time and deadline. We will check vehicle availability and the opening hours at both addresses before confirming the booking.

Confirm the receiving arrangements

A business that normally opens on a weekday may be closed for the holiday. Give us a reachable contact at each end, the correct entrance, loading access and any agreed receiving slot.

Choose the service for the deadline

Same-day and direct bookings use a dedicated vehicle. Flexible economy transport normally takes 2–4 working days and may be shared. Confirm the actual collection and delivery dates rather than assuming a bank holiday is a working day.

Agree the price before collection

Bank-holiday availability and any surcharge are confirmed in the quote. Payment is required before collection unless credit terms have been agreed. Changes to the route, load or instructions may require revised timing and pricing.

Your courier questions answered

Can I contact you on a bank holiday?

Yes. Our staffed office handles bookings and enquiries from 07:30–18:00 UK time, including bank holidays and weekends. Collection and delivery times are agreed separately for each booking. For customers with out-of-hours deliveries, a 24-hour standby mobile number is provided if required.

How quickly can you collect?

For urgent same-day deliveries, collection is within 1 hour of confirmed booking. We check the route, suitable vehicle and opening hours at both addresses before confirming the booking.

What if the delivery site is closed?

Tell us before booking so we can agree an available receiving time. If circumstances change afterwards, contact us promptly to review the arrangements and any effect on cost.

Arrange your delivery

Send both postcodes, the ready time, delivery deadline, item count, packed dimensions and weight. Add the goods value, contacts and access details so we can confirm availability, handling, applicable cover and a tailored price. Check the quoted VAT treatment and any loading, waiting or additional-stop charges before booking.

For customers with out-of-hours deliveries, a 24-hour standby mobile number is provided if required. Fresh location updates can be emailed every 15 minutes on request, with printable proof of delivery after handover. Payment is required before collection unless approved credit-account terms apply. Your booking is confirmed after the price and arrangements are agreed and payment has been received, or we accept the booking under your approved account terms. An enquiry alone does not confirm a booking. For changes or a delivery problem, contact us promptly with the job reference.
