A To B Couriers operate a fleet of vans, we would expect to be able to collect from your premises in the Sheffield Area within 10 minutes of your telephoned or faxed instructions during our normal working day (0800 to 1800 hours). Out of office hours, our response time would be between 30 and 45 minutes from receiving your instructions to collection being affected.
For remote pickups, i.e. collecting outside Sheffield for delivery back into Sheffield or for forwarding to another town or city our response time will depend on individual circumstances. We will always be able to give you an accurate estimate of a collection time for a remote pickup and in many instances will be able to offer you alternatives, either despatching one of our own operatives or using an associate company in the pickup area.
