I move freight every night for the following
Citylink
B/Post
Parcelforce
Royal mail
Amtrak
Nightspeed
TNT
plus loads of others and some smaller carriers,
all are as good / bad as each other.
People will tell you horror stories for everyone of the above, but very really tell you when a package actually arrives when it should,
So its make up ur own mind but just make sure it's packaged correctly and its clearly labelled.
Then it should get to where it needs to go on time

Puff, you know of alternate courier services??
At the moment we use city link, on next day delivery - doesnt always need to be next day and I have a new company starting up which will be exporting as well as domestic.
PM me if you want further details, I'm always looking to better my delivery options

Well, I'm sameday in London
Our new company is without doubt the most hi-tech & innovative express courier company around - we are set to do some serious shake-up of the industry in terms of service levels to the customer
However, not for overnights at this present time...

We use ANC here at work, they're quite cheap and good on reliability.
Perfect on reliability compared to the couriers we used prior to them, ParcelFarce.

GPS tracking of your package in Real Time - no more b/s, you see where it is at streetlevel.
Auto-allocation of courier inside 1/2 second depending on various factors including time of day/day of week/month of year/period of year/weather conditions/traffic conditions/vehicle type and indevidual courier performance. This means quicker response times, more accurate allocation of resources etc. The time taken to do the whole job is taken into account too as well as previous history of simillar jobs.
Loads of online capability in terms of ordering and reporting.
New website up in a couple of weeks
