Same-day courier services in Billericay

Same-day collections in Billericay, seven miles from our Basildon base. Professional and small-unit work rather than pallet freight.

Same-day courier service in Billericay

Tasito provides dedicated same-day courier services across Billericay, covering the High Street and Sun Corner businesses, the professional firms on the upper floors and the small units around the town. Most of what we move here is documents, legal and financial paperwork and small urgent consignments, collected directly from your premises and delivered in a vehicle matched to the load.

Billericay is a town with very little industrial space, and that is worth saying rather than dressing up.

What is here, and what is not

Billericay sits in Basildon borough, and the borough's employment land is concentrated five miles south of here: Burnt Mills, Cranes, Pipps Hill, Christopher Martin Road and Festival Business Park, all in Basildon. That is where the pallet-scale work originates.

What Billericay has is professional firms and small units. Solicitors, accountants, surveyors, consultancies, medical practices, plus retail and services along the High Street and a scattering of small commercial units around the edges.

So most of what we carry out of Billericay is documents, files, deeds, surveys, samples and the occasional piece of office equipment. For a professional firm needing something in London by the end of the day this is a good run: we are seven miles away, we can be on site quickly, and the job goes in the cheapest van we have, a short wheelbase at 450kg.

If you do have something palletised we have the full range and the box Luton's tail lift means you do not need a forklift. The thing to check is the destination as much as the load, because a Luton outside a High Street office is a problem whatever is in the back.

Loading is restricted through the centre and the commuter parking fills early, so the van cannot sit and wait for a call to be answered.

Because we are seven miles away we can be flexible about timing in a way we cannot at thirty-five. Tell us the window, have the consignment ready and give us a mobile for whoever is handing it over, and it works cleanly.

Charges

None. Billericay is Essex. Charges only enter the picture if the delivery address is in London, and we tell you which apply before we set off.

What we send

A short wheelbase at 450kg with a 2.1m load space suits most of it. A medium at 800kg taking two standard or three Euro pallets where there is more to it. The full fleet is available and the fleet page has every class.

Where Billericay work goes

Into London via the A127 and A13, which is most of it. Chelmsford north on the A129 and A12. Basildon, Wickford and Brentwood are all short hops and share a run easily.

Other services we run in Billericay

Next-day courier for anything without a today deadline, which covers a lot of professional document work and costs less. Multi-drop if you have a run of client addresses. Two-man delivery for office furniture and equipment going up to a floor.

Our same-day courier service has the booking detail, and what a courier is and how it differs from a parcel carrier is useful if you are choosing between the two for document work.

Billericay questions

Very little, and we would rather say so. Billericay is professional firms, small units and a High Street. The borough's employment land is five miles south at Burnt Mills, Cranes, Pipps Hill and Festival Business Park in Basildon, and that is where pallet-scale work comes from.

A short wheelbase van at 450kg, the smallest and least expensive vehicle we run. There is no reason to pay for capacity a set of contracts does not need. If the deadline is tomorrow morning, next-day is cheaper again.

Yes, with the caveat that loading is restricted through the centre and the parking fills early. The van cannot wait, so have the consignment ready and somebody able to hand it over. At seven miles we can time the arrival to suit rather than circling.

About seven miles up the A176 or across from the A127, one of the shortest runs we do. Collection is normally quick and the 4pm cut-off is comfortable on a leg this short.

Yes, and it is a good share of the work here. One vehicle, one consignment, signed for by a named person rather than left at a reception desk. Tell us who has to sign for it.

Yes. Chelmsford is up the A129 and A12 and the two sit on one run. Add Wickford or Brentwood and it is a multi-drop rather than three bookings.

Then we send a pallet vehicle and the box Luton's tail lift means no forklift is needed at your end. Check the destination as well as the load though, because a Luton at a High Street office is a problem regardless of what is in it.

No. Pricing follows the distance, the vehicle and how fast it has to move, so a seven-mile collection is priced as one. There is no surcharge for a town being small. Where cost appears is the delivery leg, and if that goes into London the charges travel with it.
