Gearbox and engine parts ready for engine courier collection

Engines and gearboxes

Engine Courier and Gearbox Courier Service

Engines and gearboxes are heavy, awkward and expensive to damage. Our engine courier service sends a vehicle sized to the unit, with a tail lift where needed, so it is loaded once and delivered direct without being handled at a depot. Whether you need a courier for an engine going to a rebuild specialist or a gearbox courier for a replacement unit, the driver goes straight from collection to delivery.

Our engine delivery service covers single units and multiple engines on pallets, anywhere in the UK. We advise on packing and handling before collection.

  • Right vehicle: tail-lift vans and lorries for units too heavy to lift by hand
  • Palletised or crated: units secured to a pallet or in a crate travel safely; not sure how to prepare yours? We'll advise
  • Fluids drained: ask for engines and gearboxes to be drained before collection
  • Proof of delivery: signed and emailed on handover

Same day

Same Day Car Parts Delivery When a Vehicle Is Off the Road

When a customer's car, a fleet vehicle or a production line is waiting on one part, standard next-day networks are too slow. Our car parts delivery service puts a dedicated vehicle on the job straight away: we collect from the supplier, warehouse or another branch and deliver direct, the same day.

As a courier service for car parts, we work around the workshop's day: early-morning drops before the first booking, evening and overnight runs, and weekend jobs.

  • Collection in 60 minutes: nationwide, 24/7
  • Direct to the workshop: no depots, no transfers between vehicles
  • Timed delivery: book collection now, or pre-book an exact delivery time

How quickly can a car parts courier collect?

Typically within 60 minutes of booking, anywhere in the UK, 24 hours a day. You can also pre-book a collection or delivery time.

Can you collect an engine or gearbox?

Yes. We send a vehicle with a tail lift where needed. Units should be secured to a pallet or in a crate, with fluids drained. If you're not sure how to prepare yours, we'll advise before collection.

Do you deliver tyres and alloy wheels?

Yes. We move tyres and alloy wheels between depots, fitters and refurbishment centres, from a single set to full loads.

Can you run regular parts deliveries between our branches?

Yes. We set up scheduled courier contract runs and multi-drop routes for distributors and dealer groups, with no minimum volume.

Can you deliver to a production line at a set time?

Yes. Book a timed delivery and the driver arrives at the time you set, so production lines and workshops aren't kept waiting.

What size vehicle do I need?

Small and medium vans suit most urgent parts. Engines, gearboxes, wheels and body panels usually need a Luton van with a tail lift. Pallets of stock and bulk parts go on 7.5 to 26-tonne lorries. We'll recommend one when you book.

Are car parts insured in transit?

Yes. Every job includes goods in transit insurance: £2,000 cover is included, and higher cover up to £250,000 is available for a small extra charge, shown in your quote.

Do I need a trade account to book?

No. Businesses can book one-off jobs without an account. Regular customers can open a trade account for discounted rates.

Do you work evenings and weekends?

Yes. Our automotive courier service runs 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, including early-morning drops before workshops open.
