Testimonials
Sarah Hugens
Office Manager
We switched to Direct Parcels after our previous courier lost three legal documents in one month. Two years later, not a single lost parcel. Their timed same day service is the only one we trust for court filings.
Daniel Okonkwo
Logistic Coordinator
The local service centre in Bristol knows our loading bay times better than our own staff do. If there’s traffic on the M32, they call us before we even notice the delay. That’s real partnership.
Priya Sharma
Founder
As a small e-commerce business, we cannot afford minimum spend contracts or account managers who don’t return emails. Direct Parcels lets us book one parcel at a time, pay by card, and still get the same 90 minute collection as a large corporate. That is exactly what we needed.
Terry McDaid
Contract Manager
Our site manager called at 7am needing a specific power tool that had been left at the head office 40 miles away. Direct Parcels collected it by 8am and had it on site by 9:30am. The concrete pour went ahead on time. That single delivery saved us £12,000 in standby costs.
