Express and courier transports are the fastest form of road freight: a vehicle is dispatched exclusively for your shipment, runs without detours and without transhipment directly from the collection address to the consignee – on request as a same-day delivery on the very same day. This is the solution when a line stoppage threatens, a spare part is missing or a tender deadline allows no delay.
Speed Logistics dispatches express runs around the clock – at night, at weekends and on public holidays too, you reach a personal dispatcher with us, not an answering machine. You receive your fixed-price quote within a few hours, and correspondingly faster in acute cases.
Scope of Services: Express from Panel Van to Articulated Truck
- Direct transport without transhipment: an exclusive vehicle just for your shipment – no groupage transhipments, no waiting for departure dates
- Same-day and over-night: collection at short notice after commissioning, delivery on the same day or overnight in time for the start of production
- All vehicle classes: from the panel van (3.5 t) for spare parts and documents through the 7.5-tonne truck to the 40-t articulated truck for complete express loads
- Express abroad: across Europe and to non-EU countries – such as Türkiye – including prioritised customs clearance
- Premium handling: sensitive and high-value express goods travel secured and stay on the same vehicle until delivery
Process: From Enquiry to Delivery in a Few Steps
The more urgent the transport, the more important fast and precise information is. When enquiring, provide us with the collection and delivery address with contact persons, times and delivery windows, as well as the weight and dimensions of the shipment. Even on short routes, an incorrect address or a missing clearance at reception can cost valuable time – which is why we ask targeted questions before the vehicle rolls. Also tell us whether a forklift or ramp is available at reception; if not, we dispatch a tail lift straight away.
After your approval, we dispatch the next available suitable vehicle, confirm the collection time and report loading and delivery back proactively. You do not have to chase the status by phone – your dispatcher keeps you informed until the consignee has signed. On very long distances, we use two drivers on request, so that the statutory driving times do not extend the delivery time.
When Express & Courier Pays Off
An express transport costs more than regular road freight – but measured against the knock-on costs of a delay, it is often the cheapest option: one hour of line stoppage in series production, a missed loading or a contractual penalty quickly exceed the surcharge many times over. Typical applications are machine spare parts, production material in the event of missing parts, medical goods and time-critical documents or samples. Plannable appointments can also be express cases: the approval test at the customer, the tender sample with a fixed submission deadline or the machine that must be ready for the maintenance window at the weekend.
What Does an Express and Courier Transport Cost?
The price factors are distance, weight, vehicle class (car, panel van, truck), time window and, where applicable, surcharges for night, weekend or public holiday runs. You receive a transparent fixed price from us before the run starts – no subsequent surprises.
