Why customers book us for long distance courier work
Genuinely nationwide
Aberdeen to Plymouth, Norwich to Swansea — cross-country routes quoted as a single job with one point of contact.
Dedicated vehicles
Your consignment travels on its own run in the right sized van, secured and strapped for hundreds of motorway miles.
Same day when it counts
Breakdown parts, missed deliveries and deadline documents collected within the hour where the route allows.
£1.50 per mile
Priced on the distance travelled and confirmed before the driver is dispatched, so there is no guesswork.
Long distance courier service
Long distance delivery carried direct, not passed through a network
Most parcel networks work by moving your consignment between depots overnight. It is efficient for volume, but every transfer is another chance for a delay, a mis-scan or damage — and nobody can tell you exactly where the item is at four in the afternoon.
Our nationwide courier services work the other way round. A driver collects from you, the load is secured in the van, and it stays there until it reaches the delivery address. That is why long distance courier work suits anything awkward, valuable, fragile or time-critical, and why one long run often costs less than rebooking a failed network delivery.
We quote per job, confirm the collection window and keep you posted while the vehicle is on the road, including honest revised timings if the motorway does not cooperate. Proof of delivery is recorded on arrival.

How it works
Booking a nationwide courier in four steps
- 01
Send us the route
Collection and delivery postcodes, what is moving, rough dimensions and weight, and the deadline you are working to.
- 02
Get a price at £1.50 per mile
We work out the mileage for the route, confirm the price and tell you whether same day is achievable.
- 03
Driver assigned
We book the vehicle, agree the collection window and give you a named contact for the job.
- 04
Delivered and confirmed
The load travels direct, you get updates in transit, and proof of delivery is recorded on arrival.
Pricing
£1.50 per mile, quoted before you book
Long distance courier work is priced on the distance travelled rather than a parcel tariff. Send us the two postcodes and we will work the mileage out and give you the figure — no account needed and no surcharges added after the job.
A cross-country run such as Gloucester to Glasgow is quoted exactly the same way as a shorter one: mileage in, price out.

Why Light Courier Logistics
A nationwide courier you can hold to a deadline
Long distance is the norm
Cross-country runs are routine work here, not an exception we reluctantly quote for.
No depot roulette
Your consignment is loaded once and unloaded once, which is why so little goes wrong.
Answered by a person
Call and you speak to whoever is arranging the job, not a queue and a reference number.
Right vehicle for the load
Small van, long-wheelbase or larger — matched to weight, dimensions and access at both ends.
Honest timings
If a deadline is not realistic on a 400-mile run, we say so before you book, not afterwards.
Set-and-forget repeat runs
Regular trunk and inter-site routes booked once, with timings and contacts kept on file.
