Sofas, wardrobes, appliances, machinery and marketplace purchases regularly fall between a parcel network and a full haulage load. Here's how to tell which you need.
Where parcel networks stop working
- Length, girth or weight limits that bulky furniture exceeds.
- Multiple depot handovers, which is where damage happens.
- Kerbside-only delivery with no help getting it inside.
- Insurance caps that don't cover the item's value.
What dedicated transport gives you
- One vehicle, one crew, collection to delivery with no depots.
- Two people where the item can't be handled by one.
- Placement in the room rather than left at the door.
- A booked time window rather than a tracking guess.
Typical jobs we run
Marketplace and auction purchases, showroom deliveries, a single pallet, a machine going to a workshop, or a piece of furniture bought at the other end of the country.
Common questions
Can you collect something I've bought online?
Yes — that's our collection and delivery service, UK-wide.
Can you send an extra person to help lift?
Yes, and it's worth requesting for anything heavy or going upstairs.
Do you carry pallets?
Yes, from a single pallet up to full loads through our haulage service.
