Most courier companies only handle small parcels. If you need a pallet delivered same day in the UK, you need a specialist courier with the right vehicles.
Royal Mail, Hermes, DPD, and most parcel networks have weight and size limits — typically under 30kg per item. A standard pallet weighs 500kg–1,000kg and measures 1.2m x 1.0m. You need a courier with:
- Luton vans, tail lift vehicles, or trucks - Pallet jacks or pump trucks - Experience handling heavy freight - Goods-in-transit insurance covering heavy loads
| Vehicle | Pallet Capacity | Starting Price | |---------|----------------|---------------| | Luton tail lift | 1–2 pallets | From £100 | | 7.5t truck | 3–6 pallets | From £225 | | 18t truck | 8–12 pallets | From £350 | | Curtain sider | 12–20 pallets | From £400 | | Artic (44t) | 26 pallets | From £495 |
