COURIER SERVICES AND PALLET DELIVERY | UK & EU

ADVICE AND PRICING FOR PALLET DELIVERY

Example Prices Receive a Quote

UK PALLET DELIVERY

Same day pallet delivery is available and we can arrange same day collection if
your shipment is urgent. If you would prefer a dedicated courier service we will
send a driver and van to make the collection and deliver directly to your
customer. We like to help our customers and we are happy to discuss details with
you on the phone, insurance included



NEXT DAY DELIVERY

Delivering a pallet same or next day pallet delivery will require a dedicated
vehicle. Our fleet has a variety of sized vehicles available and we have have
several owner operator partners we use that allow us to be very competitive for
same day pallet delivery

INTERNATIONAL PALLET SHIPPING

Shipping to Europe is big business, in 2016 alone exports to Germany and France
(the UK’s biggest European customers) were worth a over £75 billion. We work
with agents throughout Europe to arrange pallet collection and delivery for a
wide range of commercial customers in the UK and France. Same day pallet courier
and International pallet delivery is usually very straight forward and our
experienced staff will be able to answer any questions you may have




WHAT DO WE DO

 * We can access networks throughout the UK and Europe with transit times
   typically between 2 – 4 days and will engage several suppliers before
   responding with a price and service agreement. Tracking is often available as
   well as same Day Collection

 * Our services can be tailored to meet your needs and we always try to be
   innovative when transporting palletised goods throughout the UK and into
   Europe, and aim to balance costs with an efficient and reliable service.

 * We will give you a rapid delivery quote for anything from a single pallet
   delivery through to a full load. An Overnight pallet delivery courier and
   Economy service are available and if you have a challenging load we are happy
   to work with you to get the job done.

 * Quality and customer service is our motto, if you have to chase us, we’ve
   failed. We always aim to update you about your goods before you need to ask.
   Deliveries will be made on time and in full and we fully understand the
   importance of a reliable supply chain.

DETAILS WORTH KNOWING

 * A standard UK pallet size is 1,000 x 1,200 x 162mm. To make the most of
   efficient transport it should not be loaded higher than 2,200mm (including
   the pallet) as this will allow it to be easily loaded onto a wide range of
   commercial vehicles.
 * It is worth knowing if your pallets are stackable as this will impact how the
   load will be transported and can reduce your cost. Some loads are only
   suitable to go on top and this can be useful too.
 * Weight is an important factor in determining the transport cost. Be sure you
   provide this information (or a good approximation erring on the side of
   caution) when requesting a quote.
 * Always aim to provide contact details of the shipper (usually yourself) and
   consignee as we will book in each collection and delivery to help avoid
   wasted journeys if goods are not ready to be collected or if there is no one
   available to receive them.
 * Groupage is a reliable way to keep your costs down when sending any freight
   across the UK and Europe. Our Groupage service consolidates various goods
   (usually pallets) onto a single vehicle to create a more cost-effective
   shipment. We retain control of the entire delivery process and including
   tracking and electronic proof of delivery (PODs) as part of the service.



WHY WE DON’T HAVE AN ONLINE PALLET DELIVERY QUOTE TOOL

 * Having a standard rate card for pallet delivery quotes can be useful however
   these often don’t include the best prices on the market. We compare our own
   prices against those of our partners and if they can provide better value, we
   will offer you their services and pricing, what’s more we will arrange the
   pallet collection and delivery for you.
 * Each job tends to have its own unique circumstances and we find that the best
   way to ensure that UK pallet delivery (and international pallet delivery)
   takes place without any problems is to have a conversation with a human being
   first. This helps ut to understand if there are any access considerations and
   if we need to use a tail lift vehicle for pallet collection or pallet
   delivery.

USING OUR PALLET COURIER NETWORK KEEPS COSTS DOWN

 * We have spent a long time building relationships with pallet couriers
   throughout the UK and Europe whose services and coverage complement our own.
   This enables you to send a pallet through us and have a single point of
   contact. Your contact will be able to give you the best price as well as
   track your pallet delivery from start to finish.
 * In the same way, our partners will use our vehicles and our depots to
   compliment their own services. This reciprocal relationship helps to ensure
   that all of our vehicles run with maximum loads on board which helps us to
   keep pallet shipping prices low for our customers.

UK PALLET SIZE



HOW DOES OUR PALLET COLLECTION WORK?

If you have a fork lift truck available for pallet collection we can send one of
our larger vehicles to your premises. If you do not have a fork lift truck we
will use a smaller vehicle that has a tail lift on the rear so that your pallets
can still be mechanically lifted onto the vehicle.

Our vehicles travel regular routes at regular intervals and we leverage other
local pallet courier networks to support the collection, loading, unloading and
final mile delivery of your pallets.

HOW DO WE OFFER SUCH CHEAP PALLET DELIVERY?

If you have received a pallet delivery quote from us you will find that we can
be very competitive and offer some excellent deals for cheap pallet delivery for
the UK and Europe. The principle that we apply is to never let a vehicle run
with no load and to try to fill up all available space on every vehicle. By
avoiding transporting air we maximise the vehicle efficiency and keep the cost
of pallet shipping down.


FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS


 * ARE GOODS INSURED?
   
   For continental land transit the hauliers liability to you, the owner of the
   goods, is calculated at around £8 per KG. Additional insurance up to £10k
   coverage can be purchased for £20, and for higher value goods we will provide
   you a bespoke quotation.


 * DO YOU GUARANTEE DELIVERY TIMES?
   
   As the roads and ferries can be unpredictable we do not guarantee delivery
   timescales however we do work hard to ensure rapid transit where required.


 * CAN YOU COLLECT AND DELIVER TO RESIDENTIAL ADDRESSES?
   
   Yes. To ensure smooth transit it may be necessary to discuss access and
   timings with our service personnel and we can ensure that a tail lift vehicle
   is used where required.


 * WHAT IS AN OVERSIZED PALLET?
   
   'Standard Pallets' are 120x100cm and 'Euro Pallets' are 120x80cm. Anything
   bigger than this would be classed as oversized or if your goods overhang the
   pallet (not recommended unless the goods are sturdy) it would also be classed
   as oversized. If possible it is best to keep the height to a maximum of 220cm
   as anything taller may not fit through the doors of many standard vehicles.
   Our oversized pallet quotes are calculated on the exact measurements of your
   load so you will not pay for more space that you use.


 * HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO SHIP A PALLET TO/FROM EUROPE?
   
   Typically 5 working days is a good rule of thumb for most western European
   countries.


 * WHEN CAN YOU COLLECT?
   
   For domestic pallets and Exports, we can sometimes collect same day If booked
   before 10am. On most occasions though collection will be next working day and
   for Imports it is best to allow 2 days.


 * CAN YOU COLLECT AND DELIVER ON THE SAME DAY?
   
   Yes (depending on the distance). This will require a dedicated vehicle.


 * CAN I TRANSPORT AN ENGINE?
   
   Yes. Engines or vehicle parts must be fully drained of any oil or fuel prior
   to transport as spill and leaks can create a slip hazard and a fire risk.


 * CAN I TRACK MY SHIPMENT?
   
   Yes, often we can provide an online tracking link. If this is not available
   our service personnel can keep you updated on transit.


 * DO THE GOODS HAVE TO BE ON A PALLET?
   
   If your goods can be moved by hand (small and lightweight) or by forklift
   then it may not be necessary to put them onto a pallet. Typically though a
   pallet is essential for transit.


 * WHAT IS KERBSIDE DELIVERY/COLLECTION?
   
   Kerbside refers to the position and availability of goods. Collections must
   be from a place accessible by the vehicle and goods will not be move further
   once off the vehicle.
