Warehousing and courier in one arrangement
We hold your stock and deliver it when you call for it, so a release goes straight out rather than starting with a collection. If you only need the delivery half, a same day courier booking is the simpler answer.
- Price agreed before collection
- Signed proof of delivery
- Nationwide, both directions
When does storing and shipping together make sense?
When the goods are already going to sit somewhere and the somewhere isn't useful. Stock landed ahead of a season. Exhibition kit between shows. A fit-out delivered before the site is ready. In each case the alternative is your own floor space plus a collection leg on every order.
Holding it with the people who deliver it removes that leg. A release is a van leaving with your goods already on it, not a van driving to you first.
- Seasonal stock landed before it's needed
- Exhibition and event kit between shows
- Fit-out materials waiting on site access
- Spares held close to where they'll be needed
What does storage with delivery cost?
Two parts: what's held and for how long, and the delivery when you release it. Dispatch prices both before anything arrives, so you're not agreeing to storage without knowing what getting it out again costs.
- How much space, and for how long
- How often you expect to release
- Road miles on each release
- Whether we collect the goods in

FAQs
Questions we get asked
How much stock can you hold?
Tell dispatch what the goods are and roughly how much space they take, and you'll get a straight answer about whether it fits and what it costs. Capacity moves with the season, so it's worth asking rather than assuming.
How quickly can something be released?
A release skips the collection leg, so it's usually quicker than a standard booking of the same distance. Call it in and the goods go out on the next suitable van.
Can you release part of a consignment?
Yes. Part-releases are the normal pattern — stock lands once and goes out over weeks. Say at the start roughly how often you expect to draw on it, because that shapes how it's stored.
Is this a long-term storage contract?
It doesn't have to be. Short holds between events and longer seasonal ones are both ordinary. Terms are agreed before the goods arrive rather than discovered afterwards.
