Parcel delivery services

For those parcels that have to reach their destination the next day, our overnight parcel delivery service to the UK is just what you need. This service is perfect for sending parcels and documents to UK addresses overnight and having their delivery guaranteed at the required time the next morning.

At Same-day Dispatch Services, we pick the parcels up from your location to minimise disruption to you, delivering them to their destination by the agreed time the next day.

If your consignment has to be there for the start of the working day we can guarantee to deliver your parcel by 9:30am the following day. If however you aren’t sure that someone will be present to take receipt of the parcel before 9:30am we can also offer a service whereby your parcel can be delivered before 10:30am.

A cheaper option for parcel delivery is to have your consignment delivered to its destination by noon the following day. This gives you great service at a lower cost.

Parcels can be collected today for guaranteed delivery tomorrow. We can also pick up on Fridays to guarantee delivery on Saturday.

Same-day Dispatch Services can collect your parcel from your door and deliver it to its destination, regardless of the size of the parcel and the destination for delivery.

What about parcel delivery abroad?

Sending a parcel abroad couldn’t be easier with Same Day Dispatch as we offer parcel delivery to anywhere in the world. Our worldwide delivery service is cost effective too because as our services are independent, we’re able to choose the most efficient routing and therefore the most cost effective method of transporting for your parcels.

We will also collect your parcel from your place of work at a time that suits you. This makes sure that your needs are met and catered for. At Same-day Dispatch Services, our flexible approach means our customers are always put first.

International parcel delivery services

Same-day Dispatch Services offers several different types of international parcel delivery services, including a priority timed service that allows you to state exactly when you want your consignment delivered. This is ideal for shipping time sensitive documents and parcels abroad that have to be at their destination at a particular time. This service is offered to most major cities throughout the world.

If you have to ship parcels to the USA and need them to arrive at their destinations early then our ‘USA First Service’ will meet your needs perfectly. We’ll guarantee to deliver your parcels to their destination, either before 8:00am or before 8:30am to almost 6,600 different zip codes in the United States. This service is perfect for when you need your parcels to arrive on time in the USA and a later delivery will simply be too late.

Specialised parcel delivery services

If you have a specialised need that isn’t covered by our regular services, then we can tailor our services to suit you. For example, if you have a parcel that you want collected in person and placed on an aircraft, only to be collected again at the other end before being delivered to its destination, we can arrange that for you. This service is available to many different countries and can be tailored to suit your needs.

If your parcel being placed in the aircraft hold isn’t enough for you then we can even offer to escort the parcel to its destination with our on board courier service. This service is perfect for those precious and sensitive items that absolutely must arrive safe and sound.

How to protect your parcels by packaging them correctly

Same-day Dispatch Services takes excellent care of your parcels from the point when we collect them, to when we deliver them to their destinations, but you can help in the protection of your parcels by ensuring they are packaged correctly.

Parcels in transit are often exposed to adverse weather conditions and vibrations, so follow these tips to make sure that your goods are well protected.

A new box protects better than an old one

Saving money by reusing boxes is a false economy as a box that has been used many times before isn’t going to be as strong as one that has just been assembled. If you do use an old box, ensure that you don’t use one that has any tears or punctures as it may not be structurally strong enough to keep your parcel safe.

Two boxes are better than one

It’s better to be safe than sorry with your parcels, so using the original packaging for your item and placing that inside another box will make sure that your parcel is delivered without incident. It’s best to fill the external box with packaging, such as polystyrene balls or a similar type of packaging. This will help to absorb any vibration or impact while the package is in transit.

One thing you won’t want to happen when your parcel is being delivered is for it to come open during in transit. Therefore, make sure that you adequately seal your parcel with box sealing tape so that the box is strengthened and closed properly. Using the wrong type of tape can result in your parcel box opening in transit.

Delivered safe and sound

At Same-day Dispatch Services, we make sure that your parcels are treated with care from the moment that we pick them up to the point when we deliver them to their eventual destination, whether that is in the UK or anywhere in the world.
