Horizon Express Ltd began as a small family concern in September 1995 with a single vehicle competing mainly in the Same Day, Dedicated Vehicle, Courier Transport market from offices near Maidenhead, since then the business has grown to become more and more successful year after year.
Given our strategic positions within the UK we are able to offer unbelievable rates for high value / time sensitive critical Courier consignments with each vehicle insured up to �15,000 for Same Day UK services. Spreading our wings has meant that our services can now be enjoyed locally throughout Greater Manchester, Merseyside and all over Lancashire.
When low value shipments and sometime tomorrow suits, we can collect your small packages and parcels as late as 5pm for a delivery the following day either before close of business or at a timed request - 9am - 10:30 or before noon.
Our fleet up to the transit type vehicles have the ability to move consignments to much of Europe with the minimum of notice. The company has gained vast knowledge in this area over the years. We can advise on many aspects through previous experience and would be only too pleased to offer a competitive quote for you without letting you down.
We can provide an import service for consignments on either an express or deferred service level.
With over 20 years� experience we understand that not every consignment sent has a straightforward beginning or end to its journey. Sometimes a client may have something at an unsociable hour of the day or small demand that some competitors may feel either awkward to achieve or too difficult a demand. We believe this is a key strength to our business and if we can do it, we will take on the task and ensure that every detail of the client is adhered to with the utmost attention from start to finish.
If you have freight anywhere in the UK that does not require urgent transportation, we would be happy to negotiate a rate to collect and deliver your goods when we are in the appropriate areas.
Give our office a call if you would like to discuss a more attentive service option and for any advice we can offer to provide the �Bespoke Service� you demand.
Both our current sites offer 24/7 storage facilities to look after your shipments either during transit or for a little longer if required. Forklifts are available at both sites for ease of handling. We don�t usually charge for simple 24hr storage or any handling fees but if you require anything looked after for a slightly lengthier period of time, we are here to listen to any requirements that you may have.
At no extra cost, our bespoke industry software provides us the ability to send 'proof of delivery' and confirmation of cost via e-mail once the data has been entered into our booking system. This eliminates the hassle of tying up loose ends later on.
In February 2015, the business gave itself a 20 year birthday present by achieving the ISO9001: 2008 accreditation and in short it means �we deliver what we say�.
Our management processes are regularly monitored and audited by an outside agency NBS Ltd making sure that the quality and attention to detail throughout our business is adhered to ongoing.
The ISO9001: 2008 accreditation is an achievement that we are truly proud to obtain and a certification that we intend to uphold for the future success and longevity of the business.
The ISO9001: 2008 standard gives our clients peace of mind that we take their business seriously and offer the highest standards possible normally only expected from larger national competitors within our industry.
