Is it the same driver from collection to delivery?

Yes. One driver collects, carries and hands over. The envelope is never sorted, scanned into a cage or left in a depot, and never leaves the vehicle until the named person signs for it.

What proof do I get for a court or a client?

A photo at collection, the receiver's printed name and signature, GPS position and time at both ends, and a PDF proof of delivery emailed the moment it's handed over. It stands up as evidence of service.

Can the driver wait for a signature or bring something back?

Yes. Thirty minutes at each address is included (for a signing or a counterpart), then £0.50 a minute. A return envelope on the same run is priced as mileage only, no second call-out.

How much is a document courier in Birmingham?

From £25.00 within the city, £38.10 to Coventry, about £223.61 to the Royal Courts of Justice or a City firm in London with the Congestion Charge included. No VAT.

Passports and visa applications?

We carry passports, BRPs and application packs to the Passport Office, visa centres, consulates and immigration solicitors. Give us the appointment time and the driver is booked to be there before it.

Chain of custody, step by step

1You book online or by phone with the recipient's name and direct number.
2The driver collects, photographs the sealed envelope and notes who handed it over.
3GPS and time are recorded at every step; you can watch the car on the live tracking link.
4At delivery the driver asks for the named person, takes their printed name and signature, photographs the handover.
5The proof-of-delivery PDF is emailed to you the moment it's signed, and stays in your account.

Why not Special Delivery or a DX box?

Special Delivery is tomorrow by 1pm and a DX exchange is overnight. Both are fine for routine post. A document courier is for the day a hearing, completion, tender or flight depends on it: collected now, delivered in hours, to the right person, with evidence. For most Birmingham offices that's £25.00, less than an hour of a fee earner's time.
