Nationwide Pallet Delivery, Done Properly

Pallet Courier Service UK

Sending a pallet is a different job than sending a parcel. It's heavier, bulkier, and one bad handoff can wreck it. National Mile moves palletised freight across the UK: single quarter pallets, full loads, awkward shapes, the lot.

You get proof of delivery, insurance cover and a real person on the phone if something needs checking. We work two ways — standard network delivery for freight that isn't urgent, or a dedicated vehicle when your pallet can't sit in a hub overnight.

Pallet Sizes, Explained

Hover each card for footprint, height and typical max weight

Measure from the base of the pallet to the top of your load, including straps and wrapping — that's the number we quote against. Standard UK pallets and Euro pallets (1.2m x 0.8m) both work fine, as long as all four sides are clear for a forklift or pump truck.

Network Or Dedicated: Which One Do You Need?

Two ways to move your pallet

The cheaper option for routine freight

Your pallet moves through a UK pallet network via a regional hub, usually the next working day. This is the cheaper option and it works fine for routine stock runs and non-urgent freight.

Usually next working day
Lower cost option
Best for non-urgent stock runs

Direct, when your pallet can't wait

No hub, no sorting, no waiting for a slot on someone else's route. A driver collects your pallet and takes it straight to the destination. This is what you want for urgent orders, high-value goods, or anything that genuinely can't wait.

Best for urgent or high-value loads

Questions People Actually Ask

Pallet courier questions answered

Depends on pallet size, weight and the postcodes at each end. Remote areas (Highlands, islands, Northern Ireland) usually cost a bit more. You'll get the full price before you book, not after.

Couriers are built for parcels. Pallet networks are built for weight and bulk, with the tail-lifts and forklifts to match. If it's too heavy for a parcel service, it needs a pallet service.

Book network delivery before the daily cut-off and it usually goes the next working day. Need it today? Call us about a dedicated collection, availability depends on your route.

No. We bring a tail-lift and pump truck if you don't have one.

Yes, but it's kerbside. The driver gets it to your boundary, not through your front door. Flag it as residential when you book so we can plan the vehicle properly.

Tell us the real dimensions and weight upfront. We handle oversized loads all the time, but we need accurate numbers or it causes problems at collection.

Yes, every consignment. Shipping something high value? Mention it and we'll confirm the right cover level.

Yes. You'll get a heads-up when it's collected and when it's delivered, plus proof of delivery once it's there.
