About Our Van Courier Services
When it comes to our van courier service in London one of the most random, yet regularly asked questions we get asked is “can I have a van big enough for a medium sized box” that will fit in the van?
So what is a medium sized box? There is probably a mathematical equation out there somewhere to determine this, but to be on the safe side we have a fleet made up of small vans, big vans, and truly humongous vans. In the eventuality that your medium sized box is equivalent to the mass of a 200lb mammal, panic not, we’ll have a van courier service to suit.
Other common questions include, do you deliver parcels same day? of course we can “how far do you go”. To answer that question we thought it best to give you two extremities at both ends of the scale. Here are two real jobs completed recently…
Book Van Couriers from London to International Destinations
Big Van: The van transport service started in West London, drove to Hollyhead, Ferry to Belfast, drive 60 miles, deliver. Sleep over, collect AM, a 3 hour soft shoe shuffle around Belfast, sleep. Wake up, drive to ferry, feet on dry land in Hollyhead, drive back to London.
Total miles 787 (not including the Irish sea, you can’t drive on that bit).
Little Van: Van courier service collect EC2 from the ground floor of a rather tall building, deliver to the 25th floor! We tried to get the vehicle into the lift but failed.
Total miles 0

We have been using Mission Despatch for over 11 years, that alone is testament to how good they are.
They take care of all our deliveries with their vans the same or next day. The team are always helpful and friendly and on the very rare occasion there has been a problem it has been sorted out very quickly.
The Mission overnight service opened up a whole new customer base to us. We were traditionally a local printer but now anyone in England can order from us and we can deliver next day, which meant we were able to compete with the Web based printers who took a lot of our Market.
As we got bigger we found the Mission Fulfilment service a great bonus for us, finding some one who could store and send out our work meant we could use our space more efficiently , great when you are paying London rates.
Over the last 12 years we have been using Mission Despatch for all our Sameday and Internationals. They have been very reliable and always there to help out where they can. Although they have an online booking service being old school its always nice to phone up and make the booking. I do like getting the Booking Confirmation, Proof of collection (POC) and Proof of Delivery (POD) as often Client’s phoning up chasing and I have great pleasure telling them exactly who and what time it was signed for without even bothering Mission for the answer. From Office control to the drivers are always very polite. As a Company we have grown and you could say its with the help of Mission to be able to deliver and keep our reputation right at the top.
