Urgent collection in Croydon and urgent direct delivery by courier to Retford. The vehicle required for this same day delivery was a large van (SWB Transit or similar) and our quote was £239 plus VAT.
Our quotes are based on the loaded mileage between the actual collection and delivery postcodes, taking other factors like our minimum charges, loading and waiting time, road tolls, congestion charges etc. into account. The actual distance from the collection to the delivery point was calculated at 185 miles. For comparison the route between the town centres is 167 miles and the calculated driving time is about 3 hours and 20 minutes. Actual driving times tend to be a bit longer so we quoted a realistic ETA of within 4 hours and 20 minutes for this same day delivery.
