An affordable courier service you can rely on
"Affordable" should never mean unreliable. With Speedy you get the speed and security of a dedicated same day vehicle — collected in 30–60 minutes, driven direct from A to B — at a price that's genuinely competitive. We quote a fixed figure before you book, so the number you see is the number you pay.
It's always worth comparing same day couriers, and we welcome it. We work hard to keep our prices among the lowest in the UK for both businesses and private customers, without compromising on tracking, insurance or service. From a small parcel on a motorbike courier to a pallet in a Luton, our nationwide fleet means there's almost always a driver nearby — which keeps your cost down and your collection time short.
What shapes your affordable courier price
Same day pricing is simple and logical — these are the only things that move the number.
Distance
The mileage between collection and delivery. Direct routes keep it efficient — and cheaper.
Vehicle size
A bike costs less than a Luton. We match the smallest suitable vehicle to your load.
Timing
Standard hours are most affordable; out-of-hours (6pm–7am) carries a small supplement.
No congestion-charge surprises, no fuel-bill shocks — everything is built into the fixed quote you see before you confirm.
Affordable, but nothing left out
Every competitive quote includes the things that actually matter.
Cheap isn't the same as affordable
The lowest headline price can cost more when it goes wrong. Here's the difference.

Affordable courier service — your questions answered
Is the quoted price really fixed?
Yes. The price you see when you book is the price you pay. Distance, vehicle and timing are all built in — there are no surge charges or surprise add-ons at the end.
How do you keep prices competitive?
Our nationwide fleet of over 20,000 drivers means there's usually one close to your collection point, which keeps mileage and dead time — and therefore cost — to a minimum. We pass that efficiency on to you.
Can I make it cheaper?
Often, yes. Choosing the smallest suitable vehicle, booking within standard hours, and using a free business account for regular jobs all reduce the cost. Our team is happy to advise on the most affordable option.
Are tracking and insurance extra?
No. Live GPS tracking, goods in transit insurance up to £5,000 and electronic proof of delivery are all included in your quote at no additional charge.
Do you charge to open an account?
No. Registration is free with no joining fee or minimum spend. A business account simply unlocks preferential rates and monthly invoicing for regular bookers.
