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 Sheffield 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 the Parkway. Sheffield clean air zone charges apply to older vans. Sheffield's clean air zone covers the inner ring road and the city centre and charges non-compliant vans daily; Meadowhall, the Parkway estates and Catcliffe are outside it, so most industrial deliveries pay nothing.
Where we deliver in Sheffield
Steel, tooling and cutting parts for the Don Valley workshops, precision engineering for the Advanced Manufacturing Park, machinery components, and retail stock for Meadowhall.
- Meadowhall and Tinsley
- Attercliffe and the Lower Don Valley
- Sheffield Business Park on the Parkway

Engineering firms in the Don Valley send parts back to Midlands plants, so we often load for the return.
