Fragile Courier Service

Glass, artwork, electronics and laboratory equipment moved with the care a parcel network cannot offer.

Fragile electronics secured with blanket wrap

Fragile is a handling problem, not a weight problem

A fragile consignment survives transit when it has one driver, one handling cycle, straps instead of nets and blankets instead of loose pallets around it. Parcel networks achieve none of those.

Our fragile service gives you a dedicated vehicle, blanket wrap, and hand-loaded transit - the same model used by fine-art and scientific logistics specialists.

Fragile service standards

Blanket wrapped

Moving blankets and edge protection as standard.

Air-ride options

Air-suspension rigid available for shock-sensitive loads.

Two-man handling

Manual loading and placement, no forklift through the load.

Direct routing

No cross-dock, no consolidation, no repeated handling.

Strapped, not thrown

Hand-strapped to avoid pressure-point damage.
