What clients say about the call-out

What counts as an urgent courier job?

An urgent courier job is one where the delivery time is the whole point of the delivery. A part that keeps a line down until it lands, a document that has to be signed today, an item too valuable or too awkward to hand to a parcel network — anything a next-day estimate does not cover.

Bulb Transport is built for that job and not much else. A dedicated vehicle collects from you and drives straight to the delivery address: no sorting hub, no other drops on the way. That is the working difference between a courier and a parcel service, and it is why a same day courier run is priced by vehicle and distance rather than by the size of the box.

How do you book a courier for today?

Two postcodes and a sentence about what is moving. Send those on the quote form and dispatch comes back with a price, or call and you will have the figure in the first conversation. Nothing is booked until you say so.

The vehicle is picked for the load rather than the other way round. Tell dispatch the weight, the largest dimension and whether it is on a pallet, and it chooses from the fleet — which runs from a small van up to a 7.5-tonne box with a tail lift — and tells you which one is coming before you commit.

FAQs

Questions we get asked

What is a same day courier?

A same day courier collects your consignment and drives it to the delivery address the same day, on a vehicle carrying nothing else. No sorting hub and no other drops on the way, which is what separates it from a parcel network — and why it is priced by vehicle and distance rather than by parcel size. See what the same day service covers.

Do you deliver across the whole UK?

Yes. Collection and delivery can each be anywhere in the United Kingdom, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland included, and one vehicle runs the whole route end to end.

Can you collect tonight, or at the weekend?

Yes. Dispatch is staffed 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, and weekend courier jobs run at the same response times as weekdays. Out-of-hours work is quoted before the vehicle moves, so nothing new appears on the invoice afterwards.

How is the price worked out?

By vehicle type, distance and the service level you pick — same day, overnight or weekend. Nothing is charged by parcel or by item. The calculator further up this page returns an indicative range from two postcodes, and a dispatcher confirms the real figure before anything moves; ask for a firm quote when you are ready.

What sort of things do you move?

Everything from a single envelope to a 7.5-tonne load — urgent parts, documents, IT equipment, artwork, jewellery, exhibition freight and household goods. We run for 13 specialist sectors, each with its own handling rules. Ask dispatch if you are unsure whether something can be carried.

Do I need an account to book?

No. Jobs are booked one at a time, with no account, no login and no minimum volume. If you move things regularly, dispatch can price it as a standing arrangement instead — how we handle regular work.
