Advertising Opportunities

All businesses need to make sure people know they exist. Due to our many years of experience in both print and digital media, we’re not too shabby at getting results both on and offline.

Drivers

A great place to start is to add your business to our local courier services directory.

We created this to help small delivery companies get found more often on Google in their local towns and cities.

We can also help you with bespoke solutions for getting your business ‘online’ including designing and hosting websites, setting up social media channels and helping you to market them and much more.

Suppliers

We’ve created opportunities for companies that provide products and services TO couriers to get noticed on Couriers TV.

Visit the Advertising Options page for more information on our rates and features

Accessories & Equipment Offers

You’re going to need equipment. Whether it’s a set of ratchet straps, a new van or a printer for your office.

We’re constantly speaking to suppliers that can offer deals and discounts on a wide range of products and services.

Delivery Work App Reviews

The best way to make a good living for yourself as a courier is to get your own customers. But for the vast majority a lot of your work will come from sub-contracting for other transport companies, and the best way to find this work is through exchange sites.

Take a look at our Delivery work app reviews.

Financial Services and Cashflow

To do business you’re going to need to be able to receive and spend money and deal with all the issues that come along with it.

That’s why we created an area for you to get access to invoice financing, bank accounts and ways to deal with your tax matters.

See our Financial Services and Cashflow for more information

Fuel Card Services

Fuel is going to be one of your biggest overheads. The more you work, the more you’ll spend on diesel (or alternatives).

Fuel cards can often provide essential savings and improve your cashflow.

We highly recommend looking into which cards might work for your business. We work with leading providers that can offer the lowest (or even zero) fees and the best prices.

Visit the Fuel Cards page for our latest deals.

Save Money On Diesel with a Fuel Card

  • Save a minimum of 3p per litre (pump pricing option)
  • Save up to a maximum of 10p per litre (fixed pricing option)
  • Improve Cashflow
  • Access thousands of filling stations and supermarkets around the UK

Insurance Services

Make no mistake. You WILL NEED INSURANCE.

Vehicle insurance, Goods in Transit, Public Liability, Employers Liability. It can be a bit of a minefield and it’s often not cheap, but being self-employed or running a business is not cheap, it’s just something that has to be done.

But, even though it’s a necessity, you can still find ways to reduce your costs and get a better deal. So we’ve done some research and we’ve spoken to the best courier insurance companies to try and bring access to some of the best deals and information available.

See our Courier Insurance page for more information

Site Safety Advice

It will help if you know the rules when entering all the different locations that you’ll be collecting and delivering. From warehouses and distribution hubs to building sites and pedestrianised towns centres. There’s a lot to take in, so we’ll try to make it easier to understand.

See the Site Safety page (coming soon) for more information

Telematics for Couriers

Telematics is a powerful tool that can help virtually any courier business.

It lets you track your vehicles with GPS and see everything that’s going on, from your speed to fuel usage on journeys.

Visit our Telematics page for more information

THINK! Road Safety

If you’re going to be doing a job that requires driving, then you should already know the majority of the highway code.

Extra tips and advice that can really help. We look into what can save lives when driving for a living, and together with THINK! Road Safety we’re urging couriers to be at their best.

See the THINK! Road Safety campaign page for more details

Van Sales, Vehicle Hire & Leasing

A vehicle is a fundamental requirement for any courier. You could try and deliver goods by walking from collection to delivery, but we don’t recommend it. So you really have 3 choices, you can buy a vehicle, hire a van or lease. Each has its own benefits, and it’s up to you to decide which is the best fit for you and your business.

What we intend to do is to bring as many great choices to you, give you some insight into how they work so that you can make an informed decision.

See the Van Sales and Leasing page for more information
