Specialist Antiques Delivery in Norwich
🏢 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.
🗺️ Norwich Local Expertise
Norwich’s role as a regional hub creates specific delivery challenges:
• A47 Southern Bypass congestion, especially around the A11 and A140 junctions
• Historic centre (The Lanes, Tombland) with strict access rules and size limits
• A140 corridor to Ipswich dominated by HGV traffic
• Carrow Road football match days causing significant disruption
• Seasonal tourist traffic adding pressure during summer months
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.
