How do Drop Off services work?

Drop Off services allow you to drop your parcel at a local shop rather than having to wait in for collection. Your parcel will then be collected from the drop-off point by your local driver.

Book a Drop Off service - Enter your parcels weight and dimensions on our Quick Quote page and select a Drop Off service from the results.

 

How do I drop my parcel off?

For our Drop Off services, you will need to take your parcel to your preferred drop shop and hand it over to the assistant to scan.

You can drop your parcel off at any drop shop available for your chosen service, you do not need to select one when ordering.

Please note: You must book your order and print a label before you take it to the drop-off point.
