How courier pricing works
Four factors decide the price you see, and you always see it before booking.
Distance
The mileage between collection and delivery is the biggest pricing factor. Short city hops cost far less than cross-country routes.
Vehicle size
A motorbike is the cheapest option for documents; a 7.5T lorry costs more because it carries far more. Only pay for the space you need.
Urgency
Immediate collections cost a little more than scheduled ones. Booking ahead gives couriers time to plan the most efficient route.
Availability
Prices reflect live driver supply. When more couriers are nearby, you get more competitive quotes to compare instantly.
