Hawk Couriers is a nationwide courier service, with drivers based across England, Scotland and Wales. This means that we can collect pallets within 60 minutes from most mainland addresses and deliver them directly to anywhere within the UK. With a range of vehicles to suit all types of pallet delivery, we can dispatch small vans for quarter pallets, short wheelbase vans for half pallets and large luton vans for full pallet loads.
If your pickup or delivery site does not have a forklift, we’ve got you covered. Simply load the pallet onto our vehicle’s tail-lift using a trolley jack and we’ll take it from there.
Why use Hawk Couriers?
Pallets can be difficult to deliver from one location to the next if you don’t have the time, materials or knowledge to do it yourself. Even if you regularly ship pallets, you may have been let down by your usual delivery company, or maybe one of your own vehicles has broken down.
This is where Hawk Couriers comes in. Whether you need a one off time-sensitive pallet delivery handling from point A to point B, or you need a regular service setting up with ourselves, just get in touch. We’re more than happy to discuss your options and help determine the best solution for your needs.
We are fast! With a huge network of over 3000 drivers across the UK, our local driver can be with you within just 30-60 minutes, day or night.

Same Day Pallet Delivery FAQs
Q: What is a pallet?
A: A pallet is a flat, usually wooden or plastic structure used as a base for storing and transporting goods. By raising the items off the floor with these platforms, this means that forklift trucks or pallet jacks can be used to lift the stack of goods all as a single stable unit. Pallets are an essential tool in most warehouses and are viewed as a foundational piece of equipment in shipping and logistics.
Historical evidence shows that pallets originate as far back as Ancient Egypt and Ancient Mesopotamia!
Q: What is pallet delivery?
A: Hawk Couriers offers a Same Day Pallet Delivery Service, meaning that you can stack boxes and other items onto a pallet and have the whole thing delivered to your chosen destination. Please use our quote form and we will provide you with a price based on the overall pallet dimensions and weight.
Q: How much does pallet delivery cost?
A: This all depends on the total number of pallets and the overall dimensions which they total. Vehicle capacity is the main determining factor here. As it is more economical to load a delivery vehicle fully, as opposed to filling it to partial capacity, you’ll find that it’s more cost effective to send numerous pallets at a time. Use the quote form at the top of the page to secure an exact price.
Q: What is the best way to secure a pallet?
A: We recommend using pallet wrap, which is made from linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE). It is very reminiscent of kitchen cling film and is able to cling to itself without the use of adhesives, helping to bind loose items and boxes together, as well as protecting the items from dust, moisture and damage. LLDPE is a durable petroleum based plastic, designed for strength, elasticity and load retention.
Q: How to book a pallet delivery
A: The best way is to use the quote form at the top of the page. Fill out the address where your pallet(s) will be collected, the delivery address and the date. Although we generally provide a Same Day Pallet Delivery Service, this enables you to book in advance, securing the date. Alternatively, you can give us a call on 0800 999 1113 and we can organise everything over the phone.
Q: What happens if the collected pallet is larger or heavier than what is ordered?
A: Failure to disclose the correct dimensions or pallet weight could result in surcharges being incurred, as this affects vehicle capacity, load weight and fuel consumption. If you need to make any last minute changes to your pallet delivery, please contact us immediately.
