Luggage Delivery Service, Door to Door
Our luggage delivery service collects your bags from the door and drives them straight to the other address, often the same day. Four suitcases cost what one does, because you’re paying for the van and the miles, not the kilos. No boxes to find, no labels to print, and a named person signs at the other end.

Price Your Bags
Tell us how many bags, the two addresses and when they have to arrive. A controller sends back one fixed figure.
How does luggage delivery work?
You tell us how many bags, where they are and where they need to be. A driver collects them from the door, usually within 30 to 60 minutes in London, and they travel in a van booked for your job alone. They’re handed to you or a named person at the other end, with a photo or signature as proof. Nothing is boxed, labelled or left in a depot, and the price is fixed before we collect.
What Our Luggage Delivery Service Carries
Our luggage delivery service moves suitcases, holdalls, trunks, sports kit and boxes between homes, hotels, halls, offices and ports anywhere in mainland UK. Every run is fast, reliable, direct and fairly priced, and the bags go exactly as you packed them, with no box and no shipping label.

Not only holidaymakers. Plenty of our luggage work is time-critical, high-value or simply too awkward for a parcel belt, and every booking gets secure single handling: one driver loads the bags, keeps them and hands them over.
Hotels and Concierge Desks
Guests’ forgotten cases sent on to their next stop, and bags forwarded between sister hotels when a stay changes at short notice.
Students and Parents
Move-in and move-out weekends, when halls run timed unloading slots and a car simply won’t hold a year’s worth of belongings.
Events and Touring Crews
Wardrobe trunks, instrument cases and kit bags between venues, timed to the load-in rather than sometime that day.
Relocation and Lettings
Belongings sent ahead for new starters, contractors on long postings and tenants moving between furnished lets.
Sports Clubs and Teams
Team kit, golf bags and bike boxes to tournaments and training camps, so players travel with a single cabin bag.
Families and Travellers
Holiday luggage to a cottage, villa transfer point or cruise terminal, leaving the journey itself free of heavy lifting.
Why a Luggage Courier Beats the Parcel Network
Picture the scene. Your case was meant to be at the hotel by six, the wedding is at ten tomorrow, and the tracking page says “in transit” at a hub 120 miles away. Parcel networks move luggage the same way they move shoes: weighed, labelled, sorted and passed on. A single heavy suitcase can end up costing more than the train ticket it was meant to save, and it still arrives on the network’s day, not yours.
Your bags are handled four to six times between depots on a parcel network, and things go wrong more often than people expect. Ofcom’s 2025 research found 68% of people had a delivery problem in six months. Our suitcase courier service works the other way round: loaded once, unloaded once, never in a depot. Packing something breakable? Run through our parcel packing guide first.
So what happens after you call? In London and the South East a DBS-checked driver is usually with you within 30 to 60 minutes. Further afield, we send the nearest suitable van and give you an honest ETA before you commit. We photograph the bags at collection, update you by phone or SMS on the way, and email photo or signature proof with a name and time at handover. Flying out? We also run timed airport deliveries to the terminal.
The van suits the load, from a small van for a few cases to an LWB for a family relocation. One fixed price covers fuel, tolls, ULEZ, the Congestion Charge and ferry fares, with goods-in-transit cover to £10,000. Packed cases often pass 23kg, and HSE’s lifting guideline is 25kg for one man at waist height, so book a two-person crew for trunks and stairs. Need it there for breakfast? An overnight luggage run arrives before the day starts.
What Luggage Delivery Costs
We price the vehicle and the distance, never the bag. Four cases going 200 miles cost the same as one case going 200 miles, because it’s the same van and the same driver. Longer runs work out at roughly £1.10 to £1.80 per mile, depending on vehicle size, distance and urgency.
| Vehicle | Guide price | Load space (L × W × H) | Payload | Typical luggage load |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Small van | from £39 | 1.3 × 1.2 × 1.0 m | Around 400kg | One to ten suitcases, a golf bag or a bike box |
| SWB van | from £49 | 2.1 × 1.2 × 1.4 m | Around 800kg | A student term move or a family’s holiday luggage |
| LWB van | from £69 | 3.3 × 2.0 × 1.7 m | Around 1,200kg | Several people’s bags, trunks and boxes for a long stay |
| Luton van (tail lift) | from £89 | 4.2 × 2.0 × 2.1 m | Around 1,000kg | Touring wardrobe trunks, team kit or a relocation first load |
Suitcase counts are a rough guide for standard 75cm check-in cases. Tell us the real mix and we’ll match the van. Nights, weekends and bank holidays cost a little more, and that sits inside the fixed quote rather than on an invoice afterwards. There’s no postcode or rural surcharge, so a run to the Highlands is priced on miles alone, and ferry fares to the islands are included.
Yes, and we’d rather tell you. One boxed case that can take three or four days will usually cost less through a network. Once there are several bags, a deadline, an awkward shape or something you’d hate to lose, a dedicated van is the safer buy, and often the cheaper one per bag.
Today, Overnight or a Booked Date
Pick the timing that fits the trip. Holiday and student moves tend to be booked ahead. Left-behind bags and changed flights are usually needed within hours.
Within hours
Collected within the hour across London and driven straight there. London to Manchester is roughly a four to five hour drive, so a morning collection lands that afternoon.
Overnight
Collected in the evening, delivered before the other end opens. Useful when a hotel reception or a hall office closes at 6pm and you arrive at 9.
Booked ahead
A date and a delivery window chosen now. Weekends are included, which matters for halls move-in days and Saturday cruise departures.
Hotels, Halls and Handing Over Your Bags
Most problems with sending luggage happen at the two doors, not on the road. A few details at booking mean the driver arrives with a name, a time and a plan.
Worth Telling Us When You Book
- The hotel name, the booking surname and your arrival date, so reception can hold the bags
- Halls building, room number and any unloading slot the accommodation office has set
- Who hands over and who receives, with a mobile number for each
- Any bag with a broken zip or handle, so the driver brings extra straps
- Trunks or cases over about 25kg, stairs without a lift, or a long carry from the kerb
- Anything valuable inside, so cover is confirmed in writing before collection
Suitcases travel upright and strapped where possible, soft bags are stacked so nothing crushes, and the driver carries blankets as standard. You don’t need to box anything. Lock the case if you like. We never open bags. Keep passports, cash, prescription medicine and keys with you, and check the UK hand luggage rules if you’re flying with a cabin bag only. Any documents that must travel separately are better sent by hand on their own.
How It Works
Four steps from the first call to a signed handover, with the price agreed at the first.
Get a Fixed Quote
Send both addresses, the number and size of bags and the day they must arrive. One all-inclusive figure comes back within minutes, so you know the cost before you plan the trip.
Book Your Delivery
Confirm and you get it in writing: price, vehicle, collection window and the recipient’s name. Hotel or halls details go on the booking, so the handover is expected.
We Collect
A driver is usually with you within 30 to 60 minutes in London. Bags are counted, photographed and strapped in the van, so there’s a record of how they left.
We Deliver Direct
No depot and no other customers’ parcels on board. Your bags go to the named person, and photo or signature proof with the time is emailed to you straight away.
Worried Your Bags Won’t Turn Up in Time?
Bags tend to go astray at sorting belts and transfer points. Yours never goes near one, and if traffic changes the ETA, we tell you before you ask.
Fixed All-Inclusive Quote
Fuel, tolls, ULEZ, the Congestion Charge and ferry fares are in the written figure. No per-bag extras later.
Dedicated Vehicle
Your bags travel alone from your door to theirs, with no co-loading and no transfer between vans.
Photo and Signature POD
A photo at collection, then a name, signature or photo and the time at handover, emailed to you.
24/7 Human Support
A real person answers day and night, bank holidays included, and talks to the driver for you.

Frequently Asked Questions
The questions people type before sending a suitcase, answered straight.
Can you send a suitcase by courier?
Yes. A courier can collect a suitcase from your door and deliver it to another address in the UK, often the same day. Sent in a dedicated van, the case doesn’t need boxing or a label, and several bags travel together for one fixed price. A driver is usually with you within 30 to 60 minutes in London.
Is it cheaper to send luggage than check it in?
Often, once you have more than one heavy bag. Airline fees are charged per bag and per kilo, while a van is priced on distance and vehicle size, so four cases cost the same as one. For a single light case on a short trip, checking it in or carrying it is usually cheaper.
Can I post a suitcase instead?
You can, within a parcel network’s size and weight limits, and usually boxed and labelled. It then travels through sorting depots over one to several days, with no fixed delivery time. A dedicated courier costs more for one light case but takes it as packed, the same day if needed, to a named person.
Can you deliver luggage to a hotel before I arrive?
Yes, and it’s a common booking. Give us the hotel, the booking surname and your arrival date, and the driver delivers to reception and gets a signature. It’s worth telling the hotel the bags are coming, so reception holds them for you rather than turning the driver away.
Can I send my luggage to Heathrow?
Yes, to you or someone you name at an agreed time and meeting point, or to an airport hotel. A courier can’t check bags in with an airline for you, so someone has to meet the driver. Allow a margin before your check-in closes, and we’ll confirm a realistic collection time when you book.
Is there a weight limit per bag?
Not in the airline sense. What matters is the total load for the van and whether each item can be lifted safely. Cases over about 25kg, trunks or stairs without a lift may need a second person, so mention them when you book and the quote will include it.
