Can I get my parcel collected from my home or work?

Of course you can, and you can compare prices on these services here. The selection of courier companies that offer door-to-door delivery services can be found using the "Services" link at the top of the page.

After you have added the dimensions of the parcel or packet into our quote form you will be asked to select the level of service from next day, economy, next day before 9 am and next day on a Saturday before 12 noon. On the next screen, you will be asked for a courier collection address and a delivery one. It is at this point where your parcel delivery request becomes a door-to-door courier service.

What are the advantages of a door-to-door courier service?

There are a good number of benefits of booking couriers that offer a parcel collection and door-to-door service, here's just a few:

Save yourself some petrol if your local Post Office isn't in walking distance.

Make someone else carry the burden. If you've got a bulky parcel to be delivered, then all you've got to do is get it to the front door of your home and typically your reception if you're a business customer.

You don't have to brave the Great British weather. Come to the wind, shine or rain our couriers will collect from you, so you don't have to get yourself soaked. Of course, during periods of intense weather phenomena such as the snowy conditions at the beginning of 2011, our couriers may have a few problems getting to you.

There wouldn't be much benefit in using Parcel Monkey if you had to go to a courier's depot to drop off a parcel. For this reason, we also have a domestic collection service operated by Parcelforce and DX.
