Antiques Dealers Testimonials
Our pieces are large, often delicate, and always valuable — so we need a courier who understands how to handle them properly. Horsleys has been fantastic. Whether it’s a brass cabinet going to a film set or bespoke fittings headed to a high-end store, they’ve delivered every item with care and precision. Their communication is spot-on, and their drivers understand the nature of what they’re carrying. We’ve used them for both client deliveries and rentals, and they’ve become a trusted partner. For any business moving vintage or bespoke items, we couldn’t recommend them more highly.
Specialist Courier for Antiques & Valuable Deliveries
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.
Premium Antique & Valuable Item Delivery Service
Antique dealers, auction houses, and collectors trust us because we don’t just “shift stuff”. We understand what we’re carrying: 18th-century wardrobes, delicate chandeliers, vintage shop fittings, or one-of-a-kind retro arcade machines. Every item is:
• Carefully blanket-wrapped
• Protected with corner guards
• Professionally strapped in
• Moved with experience, not guesswork
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.
