Arrange collection from your address
You do not need to take your goods to a parcel shop. Give us the collection address and destination so we can arrange a suitable vehicle for your journey.
A nearby courier needs to be available and able to carry your load. Include the number of items, their dimensions and total weight, together with the earliest time they will be ready. This helps us assess the collection and avoid sending a vehicle that is too small.
For questions about an urgent collection, email info@samedayrun.co.uk with both postcodes, the item details and your required delivery time.
How to book your local courier
- Enter the full addresses. Use the instant quote page to provide the collection and delivery locations. Add any extra delivery stops to your route.
- Choose a suitable vehicle. Check the load dimensions and weight before selecting. If you are unsure, ask us before booking.
- Check the details and book. Include access instructions and any time restrictions. Collection arrangements depend on the available vehicle and driver.
- Prepare for handover. Package the goods securely and make sure someone is available at both addresses.
What can we collect?
Documents and parcels
Urgent paperwork, keys, samples and boxed items for businesses or private customers. Keep documents protected and packages clearly labelled.
Parts and equipment
Tools, replacement components and business equipment. Tell us about fragile items or unusual shapes so the transport requirements can be checked.
IT and electronic items
Computers and other electronic equipment should be packed with suitable cushioning. Provide the dimensions of the packaged items when choosing your vehicle.
Larger loads and pallets
Multiple boxes and palletised goods require enough loading space and payload capacity. Confirm whether loading equipment or assistance is available at each end.

If your town is not listed, email us to check collection availability. Same-day arrival also depends on the distance, collection time and delivery deadline.
Choose the right vehicle and prepare your goods
Vehicle options include cars, small vans, medium vans, large vans and Luton vans, subject to availability. Select according to the packaged load, rather than the unpacked item size.
- Measure the load: provide length, width, height, total weight and the number of packages.
- Check access: mention stairs, loading bays, parking restrictions, gate codes or reception procedures.
- Explain loading needs: tell us if a forklift, tail lift or extra help may be required so suitability can be confirmed.
- Provide handover details: include the collection and recipient contacts in your booking.
Direct delivery for urgent journeys
Dedicated courier transport takes your goods from the collection point to the agreed destination without routing them through a parcel sorting depot. It is useful when you need transport arranged around a particular consignment and deadline.
For multiple delivery stops, include every address when requesting the quote. Stop order, travel distance and handover time all affect when the final delivery can be completed.
For night, weekend or bank-holiday requests, see our 24/7 Courier Service page. These collections must be confirmed according to availability.
Questions about finding a courier near you
Does the quote show the nearest available driver?
The calculator provides a journey price using your addresses and vehicle selection. It is not a live map of available drivers. Collection arrangements are confirmed separately.
Can you collect immediately?
Email your collection postcode, load details and deadline to check. The earliest collection depends on driver availability, vehicle size, traffic and access to the pickup address.
Can you deliver to another part of the country?
We arrange delivery throughout mainland Great Britain. Whether a journey can be completed that day depends on when collection takes place, the distance and the recipient's opening hours.
Can I book if I am not a business?
Yes. Private customers can request one-off collections as well as businesses. Provide the same address, load and handover information when booking.
What if online booking is temporarily unavailable?
Email info@samedayrun.co.uk with the collection and delivery addresses, item dimensions and weight, and your deadline. We can advise on availability before you make arrangements.
