KB CARS · COURIER SERVICE

SE1 courier collection and delivery Documents, keys and parcels

Send an item from or to SE1, with or without travelling alongside it. Courier bookings include live driver tracking. Our office takes urgent enquiries 24/7 and can quote for the journey and load. Call 020 8870 8888 or contact us online.

WHAT WE CARRY

Items we can collect and deliver

From a single document to a number of lighter items, ask our office about your collection. We will assess the item, vehicle and handover before agreeing the job.

Documents and keys

Arrange collection of documents, keys and other ordinary items. Let us know who holds them and who is authorised to receive them.

Personal parcels

Send an everyday parcel accompanied or unaccompanied. Tell the office its contents and size so we can discuss its suitability and the vehicle.

Business-to-business items

Enquire about urgent items between businesses, including documents. The office can discuss the collection, destination and required timing with you.

ARRANGE YOUR SE1 COURIER

From enquiry to handover

Our office will help agree a suitable vehicle, price and handover for your item.

Tell us what is moving

Give both full addresses, your preferred collection date and time, the item and its quantity, size and weight. Include any delivery deadline and the names and numbers of the collection and receiving contacts. KB Cars is registered with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO); our Privacy Notice explains how we handle booking information.

Agree the arrangement

Tell us about stairs, carrying help and whether you want to travel with the item. The office will assess the load, discuss a suitable vehicle and give you a quote. An enquiry or quote is not a confirmed booking; KB confirms a booking by SMS and/or email.

Prepare the handover

Have the item ready at the agreed collection point. Make sure an authorised person can release it and the recipient is ready, or agree reception or a specific safe-place handover with the office.

SE1 COLLECTION NOTES

Finding your SE1 collection point

Borough Market at 8 Southwark Street has distinct trading areas, including Three Crown Square, Green Market and Borough Market Kitchen. Public areas include cobbles and narrow passages, so agree a precise handover point rather than relying on a vehicle reaching the stall.

At Oxo Tower Wharf on Barge House Street, SE1 9PH, identify the studio and floor. Passenger and goods lifts are advertised, but the studio must confirm access and suitability. At The Leather Market on Weston Street, SE1 3ER, distinguish the main site from Taper Studios. Ask the site about any proposed bay use, check signs and lines, and avoid obstruction.

GOOD TO KNOW

Local collection questions

The right trader, studio or wing makes the handover easier to identify.

Is a Borough Market address enough for collection?

No. Add the trader’s name, trading area and agreed handover point. Confirm who holds the item and can release it; the general market address does not identify a collection desk.

What should I give you for an Oxo Tower Wharf studio?

Give the studio or unit, floor, entrance instructions and authorised contact. If a lift is needed, ask the studio to confirm its current access and suitability before the office agrees the handover.

Is The Leather Market collection at the main site?

It could be at the main Weston Street site or Taper Studios. Specify the business and unit, and who can release the item. If reception is involved, confirm that the site has agreed to hold it.

GOOD TO KNOW

SE1 courier questions

Pricing, assistance and what to expect from your delivery.

Are my items insured?

Goods-in-transit insurance is not included. If you need cover for your items, please arrange suitable insurance before collection.

Can the driver help with loading?

We may be able to arrange help with several lighter items. Call the office beforehand with the quantity, size and weight, any stairs and the help needed so we can agree a suitable driver and vehicle. We are not a removals company, and drivers cannot be assumed to lift heavy or exceptionally large loads.

Can I travel with my items?

Yes, or you can send them unaccompanied. Tell the office about the passenger and the load so we can agree a suitable vehicle and quote. Bulky or many-item jobs are assessed separately from an ordinary passenger journey, even when accompanied.

Can you leave an item at reception or in a safe place?

Yes, if the sender authorises the reception handover or a specific safe place. Give the office clear instructions and contact details, and check that reception has agreed to receive the item. If nobody can hand over or receive it, discuss the arrangements before booking; waiting charges apply, including when unloading takes a long time.

How much will delivery cost?

Ask the office for a current quote. The price depends on the journey and load, including whether an ordinary single item is accompanied or unaccompanied; bulky or many-item jobs are assessed separately. Waiting and other agreed charges may apply.

Can I track the driver?

Yes. Courier bookings include booking confirmation, live driver tracking, the driver’s name and vehicle registration.

Can I arrange an urgent SE1 collection?

Yes. You can enquire at any time with our 24-hour office. Tell us when the item will be ready and when it is needed at its destination; availability and any timing commitment must be confirmed by the office.
