Courier Service Belfast: Courier Belfast and Across Northern Ireland
One vehicle for your job, a collection time before you book, then it is driven direct, day or night: across the city, round the lough to Bangor and Carrickfergus, up the M2 to Ballymena and Coleraine, down the A1 to Newry, or west to Londonderry and Enniskillen.

Same Day Courier Belfast
Belfast is compact, but the things that move around it are not forgiving: samples with a clock on them, contracts that need a signature before close of business, a part that is holding up a line in the harbour estate. A network van that sorts overnight is no use to any of them.
What we offer instead is a single vehicle booked to a single job. Before you confirm, you know when it will be collected. Once it's loaded, nothing else goes in beside it, and the driver heads for the delivery address and nowhere else. If the deadline can't be met we tell you that first, not after the fact. It works the same way for a run from the Lisburn Road to the Titanic Quarter, out to Antrim, or the length of the A1 to Newry.
How Our Same Day Courier Service Belfast Works
- 01 · Get the fare first Type the two BT postcodes into the form and the price appears. If it's awkward, bulky or needs a time slot, ring 07300 832129 instead.
- 02 · A Northern Ireland driver is assigned We have drivers based in Northern Ireland, so a Belfast collection is handled by someone already on this side of the water, and the collection time we give you is theirs.
- 03 · No depot, no detour The vehicle carries your consignment and nothing belonging to anyone else, from your door to theirs.
- 04 · Proof in your inbox The recipient's name and the handover time reach you as soon as the driver has them.
Same Day Delivery Belfast: the Westlink, the M2 and the A1
Three roads decide a Belfast collection time. The Westlink joins the M1 from Lisburn to the M2 heading north, and in the peaks it is the slowest mile in Northern Ireland. The M2 and the A26 take you to Antrim, Ballymena and the north coast; the A1 runs south to Newry and the border; the A2 goes round the lough to Holywood, Bangor and Carrickfergus. We quote from the actual hour and the actual road, not a stock answer, and a run that avoids the Westlink at half past eight is quoted that way.
Drivers Based in Northern Ireland, Not Sent Over the Water
A good share of the courier websites that come up for Belfast belong to firms in England whose nearest vehicle is on the wrong side of the Irish Sea. Ours is a Belfast courier service with drivers based in Northern Ireland, so a collection here goes to one of them, and the time you are given is that driver's time. The booking, the tracking and the phone are run from our London office around the clock; the driving is done from here.
Next Day Delivery Belfast
Not everything needs to be there today. A next day delivery Belfast booking collects this afternoon and is handed over anywhere in Northern Ireland the following morning, on the same one-vehicle basis and tracked the whole way. Next day and overnight courier →
If it has to be on a desk in Enniskillen or Coleraine before nine, we collect in the evening and the driver does the run through the night.

Parcel Delivery Belfast: a Courier, Not a Postage Rate
This isn't a drop-off counter and it isn't the cheapest way to send a shoebox. It is a vehicle and a driver collecting from your Belfast address and taking the parcel, the pallet or the full load straight to the recipient, today, and telling you who signed for it. For that, the table above is the price. Large and heavy parcels →

Courier to Belfast From London & Across Great Britain
We bring things into Belfast as well as moving them around it: collected from an address in England, Scotland or Wales and delivered to the door here. Because the job includes a sea crossing, we price it per job rather than from the mileage table, and we give you the delivery time before you commit. Ring us with both postcodes and the deadline. For the Republic, see courier to Ireland →

Courier Companies Belfast: Why Businesses Call Us Instead of a Network
Belfast has no shortage of couriers. Here is what sets a booking with us apart.
- Drivers already in Northern Ireland: a local job is collected locally, and the time you're given is a real one
- One consignment, one vehicle: it leaves when you're ready and goes nowhere else first
- The whole of Northern Ireland: Londonderry, Newry, Enniskillen and the coast, at the same published rate per mile
- Open when the networks aren't: Sunday, midnight, the Twelfth, same fare
- Insured and vetted: goods-in-transit cover on every job, every driver DBS-checked, GDP compliant where samples are involved
Five Things Worth Asking First
- 1 Is the driver actually in Northern Ireland? A firm quoting from a depot in England can't collect in Lisburn this morning.
- 2 Does it go through a hub? Anything sorted in a depot overnight isn't same day, whatever the booking page says.
- 3 Will they go beyond the city? Coleraine, Omagh and Enniskillen should be a price, not a problem.
- 4 Who signs for it? A photo of a doorstep isn't proof of delivery for a contract or a sample.
- 5 Can you see the rate before you call? A courier that won't publish a per-mile price is one you can't hold to it.
Fantastic service - absolutely saved the day and will 100% use again!
Excellent service. Request made 24 hours before the required collection and delivery, fully kept up to date, on time and updated throughout the collection and delivery. Thoroughly recommend.
Arrived early, delivered early. Confirmed delivery immediately on sensitive drop. They answer the phone, and are a million lightyears better than their competitors at everything that they do. Hard to fault anything.
So impressed with Red Eagle. They have been fantastic at communicating promptly and after years of using various unreliable couriers, it’s so refreshing to find one that’s so great at customer service, and pricing!
Excellent service – highly recommended!

We used Red Eagle Logistic Ltd to collect and transport a large donation of mobility equipment for Restart Mobility CIC. The service was excellent from start to finish.
Communication was very good, the collection and delivery were handled professionally, and everything arrived safely.
As a small organisation supporting people with disabilities, finding a reliable transport company is extremely important to us. We are very grateful for their service and hope to work with Red Eagle Logistic again for future collections.
Thank you from everyone at Restart Mobility CIC. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I’m honestly so happy with the service I received from Red Eagle Logistics. I was a little worried at first because I’d never arranged this type of delivery before, especially as the medication was expensive and very sensitive to temperature.

I contacted them at very short notice to transport my vaccines from Croydon to Peterborough, and within about an hour of my enquiry everything was arranged and collected.
The gentleman who collected and delivered them was fantastic. He kept in communication with me throughout the journey and even took pictures at both collection and delivery, which really reassured me that everything was being handled properly.
My medication arrived safely, communication was excellent from start to finish, and their price was also much more reasonable than other quotes I received.
Very prompt, reliable and professional service. I’m genuinely happy I found them and will definitely use them again in the future. I would absolutely recommend Red Eagle Logistics. Thank you! 🙏🏽
Red eagle delivered my parcels with professional standards and on time. Would 100% recommend!

Courier Belfast FAQs
Are your couriers based in Belfast?+
We have drivers based in Northern Ireland, so a Belfast collection is handled by someone already here rather than by a vehicle sent over from Great Britain. Our head office is in London, which is where the booking and tracking are run from, 24 hours a day.
How fast can you collect in Belfast?+
We give you a collection time when you book. It depends on where in the city or the county you are, which of our Northern Ireland drivers is nearest at that moment, and what the Westlink is doing. If the job is planned, booking in the morning secures the earliest slot.
How much does a courier in Belfast cost?+
From £35 for the first 10 miles, then £1.30 per mile, including VAT, for a car or small van. Belfast to Lisburn is £35, to Bangor around £40.20, to Newry around £72.70 and to Londonderry around £119.50.
Do you cover the rest of Northern Ireland?+
Yes, all six counties: Antrim, Down, Armagh, Tyrone, Fermanagh and Londonderry, at the same rate per mile. The price table above gives the main towns.
Can you bring something over from England, Scotland or Wales?+
Yes. A job that crosses the water is priced per job rather than from the mileage table, because the crossing is part of it. Ring us with both postcodes and the deadline and we'll give you a time and a price before you commit.
What about Dublin and the Republic?+
That's a different job with different paperwork, so it has its own page. See our courier to Ireland service.
Are you open at night and at weekends?+
Yes. The line is staffed and a driver can be booked at any hour on any day of the year, including bank holidays, and weekend jobs cost the same as weekday ones.
