An urgent courier in Edinburgh is a vehicle moving towards your collection while you are still on the phone. We dispatch 24 hours a day including weekends and bank holidays, collect inside 60 minutes across Edinburgh and Scotland, and run direct with the driver’s number on the job. If a line is down or a deadline is in an hour, the thing that matters is not the tariff, it is whether anybody answers — and we do.
Ring the number. Urgent work is a phone call, not a web form — there is a dispatcher on the end of it and the vehicle is allocated while you are talking.
For most of Edinburgh a van is with you within the hour. Out-of-hours, weekend and bank holiday collections are quoted with the surcharge shown on the quote, not slipped onto the invoice afterwards.
You get the driver’s direct number and live tracking, so you can give your own customer a real arrival time instead of relaying guesses.
Road miles below were measured once by routing each city’s central postcode, not estimated, and the prices are what our own quote engine returns for that distance and vehicle. Prices are ex-VAT for a single collection and delivery during normal hours; out-of-hours, weekend and extra-stop charges are shown on your quote before you book.

Leith, Morningside, Stockbridge, Portobello, Corstorphine, Cramond, Dalkeith, Musselburgh and the rest of Scotland, with EH1 and the surrounding districts covered. If your postcode is not listed it is almost certainly still covered — this is the main areas, not the limit.
Edinburgh's business district needs fast, reliable couriers. Standard services often have next-day cut-offs and depot consolidation.
Yes — dispatch is 24/7, including weekends and bank holidays. The out-of-hours surcharge is quoted before you commit.
Collection inside 60 minutes is the normal case across Edinburgh and Scotland. The delivery time is then the drive, because there is no depot in between.
That is what a dedicated vehicle does. Loaded at the first address, unloaded at the second, nothing in between.
Tell us roughly and we will quote on that, then confirm when the driver sees it. We would rather re-quote than have you wait while you measure a pallet.
Collection postcode, delivery postcode, and roughly what is moving. The quote you get is the price invoiced — no booking fee and no fuel surcharge added afterwards.
