Same-day courier service in Shenfield
Tasito provides dedicated same-day courier services across Shenfield and Hutton, covering the professional and commuter businesses around the Elizabeth line terminus and the Hutton Road addresses. Most of what we move here is documents, paperwork and small urgent consignments, collected directly from your premises and delivered in a vehicle matched to the load. We are usually here as part of a Brentwood run rather than on a dedicated trip, which is worth knowing because it often makes the timing better rather than worse.
What Shenfield is
Shenfield is the eastern terminus of the Elizabeth line, and that single fact explains most of the commercial activity here. Professional firms, consultancies and businesses that want London access without London rent, plus the retail and services that sit around a busy commuter station.
So the work is documents, files, samples, small equipment and office consignments. Not pallets. The industrial work in this part of Essex is at Childerditch in Brentwood or on the Basildon estates.
The station is the problem and the point
Shenfield station car park and the roads around it are busy from early morning and busy again from late afternoon, and the parking restrictions near the station are tight. A van cannot sit outside an office on Hutton Road waiting for somebody to come down.
The way round it is the same as anywhere commuter-heavy. Tell us the collection window, have the consignment ready, and give us a mobile for whoever is handing it over. On an eleven-mile leg we have the flexibility to time it to suit you.
Why the Brentwood pairing matters
Because Shenfield sits on the Brentwood run, two things follow.
A collection here combined with one in Brentwood is a single job rather than two, and the pricing reflects that. And a Shenfield collection heading for the M11 or the M25 is already next to junction 28, which makes a run up to Harlow or Stansted cheaper from here than from most of our patch.
What we send
The small end of the fleet, mostly. A short wheelbase at 450kg with a 2.1m load space for documents and small parcels. A medium wheelbase at 800kg taking two standard or three Euro pallets where there is a little more to it.
The full range is available and the box Luton has a tail lift if you need it. For a Shenfield office address, the smaller van is nearly always the right call.
The fleet page has every class.
Where Shenfield work goes
Into London, which is the obvious one and the reason most businesses are here. Brentwood and Billericay are minutes away. Chelmsford is up the A12.

Shenfield questions
Usually as part of a Brentwood run, and that tends to help rather than hinder. It means a Shenfield and Brentwood collection together is one job rather than two, and the pricing follows.
Not easily, which is the honest answer. The roads around the station are busy from early and the restrictions are tight. We need the consignment ready and somebody contactable, and because it is only eleven miles we can time the arrival to suit rather than circling.
Documents, files, samples and small office consignments. The businesses here are professional and commuter rather than industrial, so palletised freight is rare. If you do have pallets, Childerditch in Brentwood or the Basildon estates are where that work normally originates.
Yes, one of the best in our patch. You are already next to M25 junction 28, so anything heading to Harlow or Stansted picks up very little extra mileage compared with starting from further east.
4pm, Monday to Friday. Eleven miles makes that comfortable. The constraint is usually the London end rather than ours, since a late collection arrives into the evening peak.
Yes, and for document work that is normally the point. Give us the company, the floor, the contact and a mobile. We would rather wait for the right person than leave a set of contracts with a reception desk.
Yes. Hutton, Shenfield and Brentwood all sit on the same run for us and it makes no practical difference which of the three the collection is in.
Yes, and for a lot of document work it does the job perfectly well. Same-day earns its money when the deadline is today and there is a consequence attached. If tomorrow morning is fine, book next day and keep the difference.
