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.

Inverness Traffic Insights
Inverness presents distinctive traffic challenges that our experienced couriers navigate daily:
The Kessock Bridge and A9 southern approach experience significant congestion during peak commuting hours
Seasonal tourist traffic, particularly during summer months and Highland Games events, requires alternative routing strategies
The historic city centre with its one-way systems and limited access zones requires local knowledge to navigate efficiently
Weather conditions in winter months can significantly impact journey times across the Highland region
The limited number of river crossings over the River Ness can create bottlenecks during busy periods
Our delivery planning takes these local traffic conditions into account to provide reliable timeframes for collections and deliveries throughout Inverness and the Highland region, adapting to both seasonal variations and the challenging weather conditions that can affect the area.
