Edinburgh’s logistics network is beautiful but challenging. Royal Mile restrictions, festival traffic chaos, tight closes, and LEZ compliance all require more than a sat nav. We know the 15-minute George Street windows, how to access New Town basements, when to avoid Grassmarket cobbles, and why Leith dock runs need morning slots.

Whether it’s historic artefacts for a private estate, whisky cabinets to Stockbridge, or auction house collections near Portobello, we handle it with care and knowledge. Our drivers are briefed with real-world insight, not just a postcode, and backed by a team who’ve been doing this for decades.

No delays. No surprises. Just reliable same-day delivery across the capital and beyond.

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.
