Collection & delivery
UK parcel collection
We can collect same day from most UK postcodes, with booking as late as 3 PM in many areas.
Collections are normally made between 9 AM and 6 PM, although we do offer a collection window from most postcodes. Don't forget to have your shipping labels printed out ready, or you can upgrade while booking to have the courier bring labels with them.
We also offer a convenient drop-off and pick-up service from over 20,000 local shops, so you don't have to wait home all day for the courier to arrive.
UK delivery services
UK deliveries are made between 9 AM and 7PM on working weekdays. We do also offer AM delivery services for more urgent shipments.
UK couriers make three delivery attempts as standard, however some courier services only make one attempt. If your courier hasn't arrived by 4pm please contact us.
Most couriers will not deliver without a signature, however, many will leave your parcel in a safe place, such as a porch or with a neighbour. If you must have a signature you can use our upgrade option 'signature required'.
UK parcel tracking
Parcelcompare offers real-time parcel tracking for all UK deliveries, which means you can monitor your consignment from the point of pickup right through to delivery.
If any delays occur with your UK shipment, you'll see that the status of your shipment changes to exception, and you will also see an advice message letting you know whether we require any input from you or your recipient.
If any delays occur with your UK delivery, we'll also proactively notify you by email.
Large parcels and bulky items
Parcelcompare offers a specialist large parcel delivery service. We can ship heavy items up to 1,000 kg in weight, including pallets, and bulky parcels up to 270 cm in length.
Large parcel deliveries must be booked 24 hours in advance, and you can also request the pick-up vehicle have a tail lift or pump truck by contacting us prior to collection. You must also help our driver load and unload parcels over 30kg.
We don't offer a service for white goods or kitchen appliances, furniture or glass products, because these items are very fragile and not ideally suited to a UK courier network.
