Same Day Courier Haggerston
Courier Haggerston studios and workshops can book at an hour’s notice, for E2 and E8 alike. A table leaving a joinery bench. A crate of prints coming out of a canalside studio. A box of samples that has to be in Soho by four. We are usually with you inside the hour, carry your load and nobody else’s, and drive it straight to the address for one fixed price.
- Goods in transit cover to £10,000
- DBS-checked drivers

Tell us the street, the drop, what is moving and the latest time it can land. A real person replies with one fixed price, day or night.
Who does same day couriers in Haggerston?
We do, from any address in E2 8, E8 4 and the streets around them. A dedicated van is usually with you inside the hour and carries your goods only, from a single box to a workshop’s worth of furniture. A small van starts from £39 and a Luton with a tail lift from £89. The ULEZ charge, fuel and the driver’s time are inside the price, and it does not change once agreed.

Haggerston is small, mixed and busy: studios under the railway, workshops off Kingsland Road, flats on the canal and offices drifting up from Shoreditch. Much of what it sends is fragile, high in value or simply awkward, and it all needs one careful pair of hands from start to finish.
Print and Media
Proofs, finished runs, photographic prints and framed work for galleries, agencies and fairs.
Retail and eCommerce
Independent brands shipping from home studios and arches, from a single order to a launch-day drop.
Manufacturing
Joinery, upholstery, ceramics and small-batch makers moving finished pieces and raw stock.
Events and Exhibitions
Stands, set builds, props and artwork into venues across London and beyond.
Legal and Financial
Original documents carried from E8 and E2 offices to the City, Holborn and Canary Wharf.
Construction
Fixings, glazing, worktops and fit-out materials to residential refurbishments across Hackney.
Courier Haggerston Workshops Trust With Finished Work
A finished walnut table has no second chance. Neither does a run of hand-pulled prints or a ceramic order a buyer has been waiting six weeks for. When that leaves a Haggerston workshop and goes into a parcel network, it gets sorted, stacked, loaded and unloaded again several times, often with heavier boxes on top. A chipped corner costs the remake, the customer’s patience and sometimes the commission. That risk is what most makers here are really booking us to remove.
So we skip the network. One van takes your goods only, loaded once and unloaded once. Our furniture and joinery runs leave with blankets and straps as standard, and artwork and studio pieces travel upright and secured. If you are packing it yourself, our guide on how to pack for a courier covers corners and crates. The roads are not quiet: the Department for Transport counted 273 million vehicle miles on Hackney’s roads in 2025, which is why we quote honest windows.
Getting a van to the door takes local knowledge too. Haggerston sits among Hackney’s low traffic neighbourhoods, where camera-enforced filters change the routes vehicles can take, although every address can still be reached. Our drivers plan the approach before they set off, so a filter on Whiston Road or a closed canal bridge costs minutes rather than a missed slot. Collection is usually within the hour, with updates along the way and photo or signature proof when it lands.
Pick the van by size and loading. A small van suits samples and framed work; an LWB takes four-metre timber or a dining set; a Luton brings a tail lift for heavy pieces going to a shop with no loading dock. Every price is fixed and all-inclusive, cover runs to £10,000 per consignment, and weekly studio or market runs can be set up as a standing job. We collect just as often across Hackney and in nearby Shoreditch, on the same run where it helps.
Typical Journey Times from Haggerston
Haggerston sits on the A10 Kingsland Road, a short hop from the City and a straight road north to the M25. Treat them as honest driving ranges in normal traffic, not best cases.
| From Haggerston to | Main route | Typical drive |
|---|---|---|
| The City and Liverpool Street | A10 Kingsland Road south | Around 10 to 25 minutes |
| Soho and the West End | Old Street and Clerkenwell Road | Around 25 to 45 minutes |
| Canary Wharf | A1203 Limehouse Link | Around 20 to 35 minutes |
| London City Airport | A13 east | Around 25 to 40 minutes |
| Stansted Airport | A10, A406 and M11 | Around 50 minutes to 1 hour 15 minutes |
| Heathrow cargo centre | A40 west and M4 | Around 1 hour to 1 hour 30 minutes |
| Cambridge | A10, A406 and M11 | Around 1 hour 30 minutes to 2 hours |
| Brighton | A23 and M23 via Croydon | Around 2 hours to 2 hours 30 minutes |
| Birmingham | A406, M1 and M6 | Around 2 hours 45 minutes to 3 hours 15 minutes |
| Manchester | M1 and M6 | Around 4 hours 15 minutes to 5 hours |
Two things shift these numbers more than distance. The first is Old Street and the roads into the City between about eight and half past nine, when a ten-minute trip can triple. The second is the weekend: Columbia Road’s Sunday flower market and the crowds along Broadway Market slow the streets east of Kingsland Road for much of the day. If your delivery has a fixed cut-off, give us the time it has to land rather than the time you want us to collect. We will work backwards from it and tell you straight whether it is on.
Charges, Access and Getting Around Haggerston
Haggerston is inside one London charge and outside the other, and the street layout matters more than either. Everything below is already inside the price we quote.
| Rule or place | What applies | What it means for you |
|---|---|---|
| ULEZ | Haggerston is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone | Covered by our vans and already inside your fixed quote |
| Congestion Charge | Haggerston is outside the central zone, which starts south of Old Street | Nothing to add unless the drop itself sits inside the zone, and then it is in the quote |
| Low traffic neighbourhoods | Camera-enforced filters on many residential streets | Every address is reachable; our driver plans the approach first |
| Kingsland Road (A10) | Busy main road with timed loading rules | We use side streets and loading bays rather than stopping on the A10 |
| Regent’s Canal towpath | A footpath and cycle route, not a road | Tell us if goods come out of a canalside door and we bring two people if needed |
| Railway arches | Narrow yards and low entrances on some arches | Give us the arch number and we send a van that fits under it |
| Columbia Road on Sundays | Flower market closes the street to traffic | We collect from the nearest open street and say where in advance |
| Nights, weekends, bank holidays | We run them all, every day of the year | A little more, and still inside the fixed quote |
Hackney is a borough where most people travel without a car, so parking is controlled almost everywhere and a van that stops in the wrong place collects a ticket within minutes. Our drivers know where the loading bays are on Haggerston’s side streets and will call ahead if the nearest one is blocked. You never pay a charge separately. Fuel, the ULEZ, any Congestion Charge on the drop and the driver’s time all sit inside the one figure we give you before the van moves.
Haggerston Postcodes We Collect From
We collect across Haggerston and every street around it, with no surcharge for any postcode. Below are the areas we are in most weeks.
| Postcode | Areas and landmarks | Typical jobs |
|---|---|---|
| E2 8 | Haggerston core, Kingsland Road, Haggerston station, Haggerston Park | Studio work, furniture, eCommerce orders |
| E8 4 | Queensbridge Road, Kingsland Basin, Broadway Market | Canalside studios, market stock, home moves of single items |
| N1 | De Beauvoir Town, Hoxton, Shoreditch Park | Agency samples, framed work, documents |
| E2 7 and E2 6 | Columbia Road, Hackney Road, Bethnal Green | Shop stock, plants and planters, florist runs |
| E2 9 | Cambridge Heath, Vyner Street | Gallery pieces, exhibition crates, print |
| E8 1 to E8 3 | Dalston, London Fields, Mare Street | Restaurant equipment, retail stock, office kit |
| EC1V and EC2A | Old Street, Shoreditch, Tech City offices | IT hardware, legal documents, tender packs |
| E1 6 | Shoreditch High Street, Brick Lane, Spitalfields | Fashion samples, event kit, signage |
If your studio is up a stairwell, behind a shared gate or in an arch with no number on the door, say so when you book. The driver will have the gate code, the floor and a photo of the entrance if you can send one, which saves the ten minutes that usually goes on finding the right door off the canal.
Choosing a Van for a Haggerston Job
Pick the van by what has to fit and how it will come out of the building. If you are not sure, send the dimensions and a rough weight and we will tell you which one it needs.
| Vehicle | Guide price | Typical Haggerston load |
|---|---|---|
| Small van (around 400kg) | from £39 | Samples, framed prints, documents, a box of ceramics |
| SWB van (1 pallet, around 800kg) | from £49 | A dining table, an armchair pair, flight cases |
| LWB van (3 pallets, around 1,200kg, 4m loads) | from £69 | Timber lengths, a full set of furniture, exhibition stands |
| Luton with tail lift (5 pallets, around 1,000kg) | from £89 | Heavy pieces to shops and venues with no loading dock |
Those are starting prices for a local job. Your final figure depends on the distance, the van and the hour, and it is fixed before we move. There is no postcode surcharge, no fuel levy and nothing added afterwards for a ULEZ crossing or a short wait while you finish wrapping. Nights, weekends and bank holidays cost a little more and that is still inside the one price you agree. Is the job likely to cost more than you expected? We will tell you on the phone, not on the invoice.

Frequently Asked Questions
The questions Haggerston studios, makers and households ask us most often.
How much is a same day courier from Haggerston?
A small van starts from £39, an SWB van from £49, an LWB van from £69 and a Luton with a tail lift from £89. Those are starting prices for a local job. The final figure depends on the distance, the van size and the hour, and it is fixed before the van moves. There is no postcode surcharge and no fuel levy added later.
How quickly can a courier collect in Haggerston?
Usually within the hour of booking, at any time of day or night. We cannot guarantee a collection time because London traffic does not allow it, so we give you an honest window when you book. If that window changes on the way, you hear from us before you have to ask.
Is Haggerston in the Congestion Charge zone?
No. Haggerston is outside the central Congestion Charge zone, which starts south of Old Street, but it is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone. Our vans are covered for the ULEZ and that charge is already inside your quote. If the delivery address sits inside the Congestion Charge zone, that charge is included in the fixed price too.
Is Haggerston in Hackney or Shoreditch?
Haggerston is in the London Borough of Hackney, between Shoreditch and Hoxton to the south-west and Dalston to the north. It covers parts of the E2 and E8 postcodes, with De Beauvoir Town in N1 next door. We collect from all of them at the same rates, with no surcharge for any postcode.
Can you deliver a sofa or a table from a Haggerston workshop?
Yes. Finished furniture is one of the most common jobs we carry from here. The piece is blanketed and strapped in a dedicated van and travels on its own, with no other goods loaded on top. Tell us the dimensions, the weight and whether there are stairs at either end, and we will send the right van and two people if it needs them.
Can you collect from a canalside studio or a railway arch?
Yes. The canal towpath is not a road, so the van parks on the nearest street and the driver carries goods from your door to it. For railway arches, give us the arch number and the height of the entrance and we send a van that fits. A photo of the door when you book saves time on the day.
Got a Haggerston Job That Cannot Wait?
One van, one driver, one fixed price. Tell us the door and the deadline and we will be there, usually within the hour.
