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 Leeds 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.
M42, M1 and M621. Leeds has no charging clean air zone for vans, but the neighbouring Bradford zone charges non-compliant vans, so we check the postcode when a delivery is west of the city; the centre has loading bays with daytime limits.

Questions about this route
How long does a dedicated delivery from Birmingham to Leeds take?
About 2 hours 15 minutes driving once the van is loaded, around 120 road miles. We collect within 30 to 60 minutes of booking, so a same-day delivery is normal.
Can you deliver to Leeds city centre during the day?
Yes. Briggate and the Headrow area have loading restrictions in shopping hours, so we use the nearest loading bay and a trolley, or arrange an early slot before the restrictions start.
Do you cover Bradford, Wakefield and Huddersfield on the same run?
Yes. Multi-drop across West Yorkshire is quoted by the team, and we check the Bradford clean air zone for the van used so no charge is passed on unexpectedly.
Can you collect in Leeds and deliver to Birmingham?
Yes. Leeds is a regular two-way run, with collections from Cross Green and Stourton for the Midlands most weeks.
