Specialist Antiques Delivery in Glasgow
🏢 Antiques Requirements
When you’re moving antiques, delicate furniture, or anything valuable and awkwardly shaped, the last thing you want is a courier who treats it like a box of fence posts. These items need more than just a van and a sat nav .Whether it’s a marble-topped sideboard, a grandfather clock, or a one-of-a-kind collector’s piece, we know how to load it, move it, and deliver it safely.
That’s what we stand for at Horsely's - experience, care, and a proper plan.
🗺️ Glasgow Local Expertise
Glasgow's commercial intensity creates concentrated traffic challenges:
• M8 corridor through city (J15-J22) experiences severe daily congestion
• Kingston Bridge - Europe's busiest road bridge with constant bottlenecks
• City centre Low Emission Zone requires compliant vehicles and route planning
• Merchant City and financial district have restricted loading windows
• Event traffic from OVO Hydro and SEC can cause sudden city-wide disruption
Horsley's Brand Promise
We charge fair rates for time and expenses
NO CRAMMING, NO DAMAGE
Your items get the space they deserve
While other courier services pack 12+ deliveries into one van, we dedicate our vehicle to YOUR delivery. No cramming, no corner-cutting, no "it'll probably be fine" mentality. Your antique furniture, arcade machines, or valuable goods travel properly protected with blankets, corner guards, and professional strapping. Because there's no point paying for delivery if your items arrive scratched, dented, or broken.
What you avoid:
Damaged goods, insurance claims, replacement costs, disappointed customers
The Bottom Line: We charge fair rates for time and expenses because that's what quality service costs. Your items are valuable, your reputation matters, and your customers deserve better than budget courier chaos.
