What makes Greg Paulson Same Day Couriers special is that they are reliable when fulfilling their promises to their customers. As a result, they are most popular with their same-day delivery services.

Through this service, they can quickly pick up and drop off items at your required destination with ease. In fact, after placing the order, you may expect their representative to be on your doorstep in around 60 minutes. 

On top of this, we also like that they can operate within Manchester and the rest of the UK.

We are also impressed that they have ongoing partnerships with companies regarding the regular transportation of heavy goods, oversized items, confidential documents, and other items.

They work with all types of ventures ranging from prominent corporations to startups. This diversity is why we firmly believe that they can assist you with your shipping needs regardless of the status of your business.

As for those planning to transport high-value items, you can be at ease with Greg Paulson. Everything in their care comes with a £25,000 at no additional cost.

However, we think there is a low chance that you will need the insurance as they are also known for their safe and steady staff. According to a customer, they handle every item with utmost care.

Unfortunately, while the staff members are careful, there are reported incidents where they lack customer communication. According to some customers, the couriers sometimes could not provide accurate updates about their whereabouts.

As we all know, this can be confusing to the customers. Thus, we highly recommend double-checking everything with the couriers. 

With over 3000 drivers on their team, we are not surprised that Red Rocket Couriers has been able to provide steady services to their clients. Here, a 60-minute collection window is guaranteed, no matter where your collection point is.

Because of this, we are confident in recommending them to those who have critical collection time. In addition, the staff members are known and loved for always being on time – if not earlier.

Aside from this, we also commend them for their customer service. 

According to some customers we spoke with, the representatives are kind. They would willingly go the extra mile to help as long as possible.

When it comes to their clientele, we were impressed with the big names they work with, such as BBC, NHS, Boohoo, and more. With these companies in their portfolio, we are convinced they are trustworthy.

Speaking of trust, you will also have no issues leaving precious items in their care. 

Transporting with bespoke art and jewelry is normal for them. To ensure the safety of your belongings, you will have a tracker available as soon as the item is picked up.

We only feel iffy about the fact that they don’t have available information about their rates. Alternatively, you will need to fill out an online form on their website to request a quote.

Mail Boxes Etc. has multiple branches in the UK, allowing them to provide access in various areas efficiently. In fact, they have four branches in Manchester alone.

For this review, we will focus on the one at Piccadilly since this is the busiest branch among them. 

Unfortunately, they don’t offer time guarantees at Mail Boxes Etc. However, we noticed that their location is very accessible, so it might be better for you to drop your items off if you are in a hurry.

The other thing we like about them is their wide range of services. Aside from courier service, they also have mailboxes and print services, which can be very useful to those who need to transport items.

They also have an advantage over other couriers with their auction logistics service. Here, they assist in transporting bespoke collections of antiques, fine art, and collectibles. 

We were also impressed to learn that they have professionals on their team who can expertly pack and load such precious items in the vehicles. Through this service, it’s not surprising that they work with major auctioneers across the UK.

Lastly, their customer mentioned that they are pleased with the customer communication of both the front desk and the drivers. According to them, representatives keep you updated every step of the way.

Pack and Send is known for their reliable and efficient delivery services. Through their dedication, their founder became a finalist in the EWiF Awards 2021 in the Woman Franchisee of the Year category.

While Pack and Send has many branches in the UK, the Salford Quays branch is the first in Manchester. Despite this, most of their clients are very happy with their services.

Unlike other courier services, they assist their customer starting with their packing needs. Here, they have professionals who can assist you in ensuring that all your items are appropriately wrapped and safe for travel.

On top of this, they also have various packages you can avail of when transporting the items. Here, they have such comprehensive services that they cover almost all types of individuals or organizations that would need a courier.

One of the most popular packages is their student moves. This option assists students in moving in and out of their dorms, starting at £160.

Furthermore, this unique service includes collection, packing, customs documentation, and delivery to your front door. We think this is very useful to students who live in dorms at nearby campuses. 

Their pricing is straightforward and affordable; however, there have been reports where they didn’t follow their initial quote. Therefore, clarifying their final price before proceeding with the transportation would be best to prevent this from happening.

Delivered Direct lives up to its name in providing quick door-to-door delivery services. They are popular in Manchester since they are known to be reliable in finding the exact pick-up and drop-off locations.

But what we really like about them is that they are operational 24/7. We found this aspect convenient as you can have your items transported at any time of the day, regardless of the size or weight of your package.

Aside from their operating hours, their scope is impressive since they cover the entire UK and Europe. We believe that this makes them a strong option for those who constantly need to ship items within the continent.

It is also because of this that they have affiliations with big companies and emerging businesses. Furthermore, they will also offer you special rates if you hire them for regular pick-up and drop-off services.

If you need storage for large items, you can also use their warehousing services. Here, you will have access to their safe facility until you are ready for the actual transportation. 

Unfortunately, their prices are also not available online. Therefore, you would need to contact them for a quote.

Just be wary, as there are instances where they don’t follow the initial rate given to the customer. Therefore, it would be best to clarify everything before proceeding with the transaction.
