Timed Delivery

We specialise in timed deliveries, giving you flexible options for urgent packages.

Timed deliveries are perfect for fresh produce and perishable items, as well as time-sensitive consignments such as travel documents and medical supplies. Items are scanned directly into transportation cages for accuracy and security.

 

Our timed delivery options are:

  • Weekday before 10:30am

  • Weekday before 12pm

    • 'Weekday' refers to Monday to Friday

  • Saturday before 10:30am or 12pm

  • Upgrades available to fragile services and security services.

*Please note that there are limitations to the service coverage areas for timed and next day deliveries. Please confirm with your local depot prior to dispatch, quoting the delivery postcode. A surcharged Saturday service is also available, however this must be requested at the time of dispatch.
