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.

From transporting delicate hardwood pieces to large-scale case goods and bespoke counters, Horsleys understand the precision and care required. Their communication is excellent, their drivers are well-briefed, and every delivery arrives on time and in perfect condition. Whether it’s a single crafted item or a full fit-out for a luxury residential or hospitality project, we know we can rely on Horsleys to get it there properly.
At Jerome Shorter Furniture, every project involves multiple moving parts from transporting antique chairs to be restored, to delivering newly upholstered pieces to discerning clients.

We would recommend them without hesitation.

Bradford Traffic Insights
Bradford presents distinctive traffic challenges that our experienced couriers navigate daily:
• The ring road system around the city centre experiences significant congestion during peak hours, particularly around Hall Ings and the Broadway Shopping Centre
• The steep hills surrounding the city centre can present challenges during adverse weather conditions, particularly in winter
• The M606/M62 interchange can experience significant delays during peak periods, affecting journeys to and from Leeds, Manchester, and Hull
• Match days at Valley Parade (Bradford City AFC) create localised congestion that requires alternative routing strategies
The ongoing regeneration projects in the city centre can lead to temporary road closures and diversions that require real-time route adjustments
Our delivery planning takes these local traffic conditions into account to provide reliable timeframes for collections and deliveries throughout Bradford, adapting to both the city's challenging topography and the specific traffic patterns of this busy West Yorkshire hub.
