Decades of Dedication, Delivering Across the UK
Welcome to Heavy Weight Couriers Ltd, also operating as Scotland’s Courier Company. For over four decades, our journey has been defined by a relentless commitment to reliable, efficient, and specialised logistics. From our humble beginnings as couriers to becoming one of Scotland’s most successful independent courier companies, our story is one of unwavering dedication to our clients and the safe transport of their most valuable goods.
From Humble Beginnings to Industry Leaders
Our roots in the courier industry stretch back to 1980, when our founding partners first honed their skills with Parceline (now DPD). This invaluable early experience laid the groundwork for understanding the intricacies of logistics and the paramount importance of customer service.
Driven by a vision to offer a more specialised and client-focused approach, we established our own courier companies back in 2008. This marked a pivotal moment, enabling us to build a company founded on the principles of trust, precision, and unparalleled service. Over the years, through hard work and a deep understanding of market needs, we have grown to become one of Scotland’s most respected and successful independent courier companies.
