How urgent document delivery works (step-by-step)
Tell us pickup + drop — addresses, required time, and any access notes (reception, security, ward, court desk).
We dispatch a dedicated driver — direct collection, then straight to delivery (no shared route).
Live ETA + updates — you’ll know the progress and can relay it to the recipient.
Proof of delivery — confirmation once delivered (and any delivery notes you need).
Tip: For legal work, include the recipient name + department (e.g. “Court Office” / “Chambers” / “Solicitors Reception”) to avoid delays.
Secure handling & “chain of custody” (plain English)
With urgent documents, the biggest risk isn’t just speed — it’s mis-delivery. The safest option is a dedicated vehicle so your paperwork stays with one driver from collection to handover.
What to request for sensitive documents
- Dedicated driver (no multi-stop shared route)
- Named recipient / department at drop
- Timed delivery window if needed
- Proof of delivery
- Delivery notes or reference number
Packaging (quick best practice)
- Use a hard-back envelope or document wallet
- Seal it (tamper-evident tape if possible)
- Add “CONFIDENTIAL” if appropriate
- Put a copy of the address inside too
- Include a phone number for the recipient
What affects the price of an urgent document courier?
Pricing is mainly based on distance and urgency. Because documents are light, vehicle size is usually about availability and speed (a small van is common), but the route and deadlines matter most.
Main pricing factors
- Distance (miles) + travel time
- Collection time (same-day / immediate)
- Out-of-hours pickup (evenings/weekends)
- Timed delivery requirement
- Special access (courts/hospitals/security)
Typical use-cases

- Last-minute tender submissions
- Confidential paperwork with deadlines
