How this route works
Book online or by phone, any hour of the day. A driver from our Smethwick base collects within 30 to 60 minutes, loads with the tail-lift, and drives straight to Brighton with no depot stops and no other customers' goods on board. You get a photo and a signed proof of delivery as soon as the goods are off the van.
M40, M25 and M23. Brighton has no clean air zone for vans and no tolls after the M23; the Lanes and North Laine are pedestrianised, seafront loading is timed, and parking is tight, so we plan a drop point before arriving.

Questions about this route
How long does a dedicated delivery from Birmingham to Brighton take?
About 3 hours 15 minutes driving once the van is loaded, around 170 road miles. We collect within 30 to 60 minutes of booking, so a same-day delivery is normal.
Can you deliver to the Brighton Centre for a conference?
Yes. We need the organiser's schedule, the loading bay allocation and the stand number. During party conferences the area is a security zone and passes must be arranged in advance.
Is Gatwick on the way to Brighton?
Yes. Gatwick and Crawley are on the M23 half an hour before Brighton, so a cargo or business park drop there is added as an extra drop.
