June 2025

Advance Couriers has always understood that not all deliveries are the same.

With a focus on flexibility and reliability, our vehicles are tailored to transport various types of cargo, ensuring that each delivery is handled with the utmost care and precision.

A fleet designed to meet diverse delivery needs

One of the key factors that sets Advance Couriers apart from other UK courier services is our fleet’s versatility. From small parcel deliveries to heavy goods transport, our fleet of vehicles is equipped to handle a variety of cargo types. Each vehicle is chosen and maintained to ensure it’s the right fit for the job at hand.

Whether you’re a law firm needing urgent legal document deliveries, a retailer sending out bulk items, or a manufacturer needing heavy goods transported, we have the right vehicle to get your goods to their destination safely and on time.

Small vans for time-critical deliveries

For businesses that need fast, small parcel deliveries, our fleet includes a range of small vans specifically designed to handle time-sensitive cargo. Whether it’s a stack of contracts for an important meeting, confidential legal documents, or smaller items for e-commerce, our smaller vehicles offer the flexibility to navigate through busy streets and tight spaces.

These vans are ideal for fast deliveries that require precision timing. They are equipped with GPS tracking and real-time updates, ensuring that your delivery arrives on schedule and in perfect condition. These vehicles are ideal for:

  • Legal document deliveries: Ensuring confidential documents reach their destination securely and quickly.

  • E-commerce deliveries: Ideal for retail businesses that need quick dispatch of smaller items to customers.

  • Medical supplies: Time-sensitive items that must be delivered without delay.

Medium-sized vans for bulk goods and large parcels

For larger deliveries that don’t require an HGV, we offer medium-sized vans that are perfect for transporting bulk goods or larger parcels. These vehicles offer increased capacity without compromising on speed or flexibility. Whether you’re sending multiple boxes of products for retail or bulk orders for businesses, these vans are built to efficiently manage larger loads.

Our medium-sized vehicles are commonly used for:

  • Retail orders: Delivering large parcels or multiple boxes to stores or customers.

  • Corporate shipments: Moving office equipment, furniture, and supplies across towns or regions.

  • Industrial goods: Transporting non-sensitive, large items within business-to-business transactions.

These vans allow us to carry larger cargo with the flexibility of a smaller vehicle, ensuring that deliveries are not delayed due to size limitations.

HGV (Heavy Goods Vehicles) for large, bulky or heavy shipments

When your business needs to transport large or heavy items, our fleet of Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGVs) is designed to handle the job. These vehicles are equipped to carry heavy machinery, large equipment, or bulk shipments that require more space and weight capacity than smaller vans can handle.

HGVs are ideal for:

  • Construction materials: Delivering bulk materials like cement, timber, and equipment to construction sites.

  • Heavy equipment: Transporting industrial machinery, factory equipment, or large appliances.

  • Bulk deliveries: Moving large volumes of retail products, furniture, or goods across longer distances.

Our HGVs are fitted with state-of-the-art technology for route optimisation and real-time tracking, ensuring that even large, time-sensitive deliveries arrive on time. They are also equipped with specialist loading ramps and equipment to ensure safe and easy loading and unloading of heavy cargo.

Refrigerated vehicles for perishable goods

For businesses in the food, pharmaceutical or other industries that require temperature-controlled deliveries, Advance Couriers offers refrigerated vehicles. These vehicles are designed to transport perishable items that must be kept at specific temperatures to prevent spoilage or damage. Whether you’re transporting food products, medicine, or sensitive materials, our refrigerated vehicles provide the necessary environment for safe delivery.

Refrigerated vehicles are perfect for:

  • Food deliveries: Ensuring fresh food products are delivered without compromising on quality.

  • Pharmaceutical shipments: Transporting temperature-sensitive medications that need precise handling.

  • Medical supplies: Safely delivering sensitive medical materials that require consistent temperature control.

These vehicles are maintained to the highest standards, with regular checks to ensure they remain in top condition, maintaining the integrity of the cargo they carry.

Customised vehicles for specialised cargo

In addition to our standard fleet, we also offer customised vehicles for specialised cargo. If your business has specific requirements for transporting unique items, our fleet can be adapted to meet those needs. Whether it’s oversized loads that need special permits or fragile items that require additional care during transit, we work with you to ensure the right vehicle is selected.

Customised vehicles can be used for:

  • Oversized shipments: Transporting large or irregularly shaped items that don’t fit into standard vehicles.

  • Fragile goods: Delivering delicate items such as glassware, artwork, or electronics that require extra protection during transit.

  • Specialty equipment: For businesses in industries like medical, scientific or technology, we can provide vehicles that are tailored to transport specific items that require careful handling or additional safety measures.
