With the snow being the way it is, so couriers and parcel companies have had to take a look at their work loads and decide whether they are delivering to Scotland or not.

Firstly and foremostly, we have to keep our staff safe. So if a vehicle can’t get to a location, we can’t deliver to you. Nothing personal, just the availability of vehicular access is a lot smaller than usual for this time of year.

If you are dependent on internet shopping for your Christmas presents – get them ordered now. The likelihood of the presents reaching you in time is much greater the sooner you order.

Royal Mail have taken on extra staff, they always do at this time of year as the parcels needing to be delivered treble in volume. The give priority to certain services, so check out what ones are available. Remember in adverse weather conditions it takes longer to deliver everything, so a one day delivery window may become 5 days, depending on where you are based.

As a same day courier service, we deliver bigger items and as  I mention earlier, if we can get there we can deliver it.

Generally our vehicles are heavier than cars and we are able to get that bit closer to the end destination than a smaller vehicle but that sadly doesn’t guarantee we can get it to your doorstep. We will try though.
