🗺️ Lancaster Local Expertise
Lancaster's medieval heritage creates modern delivery obstacles:
• Complex city centre one-way system around Lancaster Castle requiring expert navigation
• River Lune bridge crossings creating bottlenecks during peak traffic periods
• M6 junctions 33 and 34 congestion affecting regional connectivity and timing
• Narrow historic streets with loading restrictions and weight limitations
• A6 corridor through city centre affecting cross-town delivery routes
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.
