Commercial courier in Cowes: business runs
How it works round here.
Cowes, Isle of Wight • Commercial Courier
Cowes sits on the western bank of the Medina, with the chain ferry linking it to East Cowes just 1.4 miles across the water, and the PO31 postcode covering the town's shops, marina and industrial units.
It's this mix of waterside trade, boatbuilders and High Street businesses that makes a straightforward commercial courier useful here, whether that's moving stock and pallets between units at Cowes Town Central, shifting office furniture into a new premises, or running trade deliveries out to shops on the mainland side of the island.
Van & Driver is bringing its Commercial Courier service to Cowes soon. The plan is the same one that works elsewhere: a fixed price agreed before the job starts, a driver who helps with the loading, and business-to-business runs sized to what fits in a van, so there's no need to hire a whole vehicle for a single pallet or a single desk. Once cover begins, that could mean a run across to East Cowes, a delivery on to Newport a few miles inland, or further afield to Blackfield and Langley on the mainland. For now, there's no local partner taking bookings in Cowes, but the service is being set up so that businesses here will soon have a fixed-price way to get stock, furniture and trade deliveries moved without the hassle of arranging it themselves.

Yes, if you book by 3pm and a driver is free: the earliest arrival is the hour after next. After 3pm, the earliest is 1pm tomorrow. The price is the same any day.
Will two people come?+
When the job needs them (a sofa, a wardrobe, a fridge, or a medium load and up) two people come, and that's already in the price. We decide it from what you're moving; there's nothing to choose or pay extra for.

Yes. You see the whole price before you book and that's what you pay: no hourly rate, and nothing added on the day for stairs, waiting or a heavy sofa, unless what you're moving changes.
