Examples
- As winner of the ParcelForce Regional Business Award, ParcelForce recommended us to one of Scotland's biggest newspaper publishers for the delivery of a petition to the Houses of Parliament. Whilst ParcelForce could have delivered the consignment, they could not guarantee delivery within the time given (28 hours). Darrell Couriers had ample time to deliver on time, intact, as always.
- We were asked to deliver a box of biscuits from Edinburgh to London. As Darrell Couriers only do special deliveries, the journey involved over 800 miles. Initial reaction was crumbs - £300 to deliver a few packets of biscuits! The consequence, however, of our on time, intact delivery was a multi million pound order from one of Britain's leading food retailers to the biscuit manufacturer.
- The Inland Revenue required a rubber band to fix one of their computers in the West Midlands, in order that their mailings were despatched on time. Although it looked like a normal rubber band, it was unique and even this was delivered on time and intact (we don't discriminate and if a customer has a legal, legitimate requirement, we will deliver on time and intact, as always).
- A hotel due to open in Madrid had failed to order light shades. The Edinburgh manufacturer was asked to supply, but could not find a reliable way of delivering. Darrell Couriers double manned a van and met a realistic delivery deadline to deliver on time and intact, allowing the hotel to open on time, with the light shades of course, intact.
- Darrell Couriers were asked to deliver four rings to Cape Town in South Africa (as always a member of our staff accompanied the consignment for the duration of the journey). When asked what we were carrying, we had to correct the Customs Officers when they assumed we were delivering jewellery. The rings were urgently needed on an oilrig, and were delivered on time intact, thus minimising any production downtime and the high associated costs.
- At 2.30 pm one afternoon, Darrell Couriers were asked to deliver a small component to South Korea. The part weighed barely 1kg; however, it was critical that the delivery was completed at the earliest opportunity. A new ship was undergoing trials and would have failed without this small part. We delivered to Seoul within 15 hours of receiving the call (on time and intact) and the relatively high cost paled into insignificance by the penalties that could have been incurred by the ship failing its trials.
