Flextro delivers for Arundel and UK organisations across healthcare, legal and professional services, housing, IT, retail, eCommerce, manufacturing and construction, from NHS trusts to Croydon-based solicitors and housing providers.








Same-day service explained
A same-day courier in Arundel picks up your consignment and delivers it that day, using a single vehicle that goes directly from collection to destination.
It suits Arundel work that a parcel network cannot turn around in time: signed property papers for a solicitor, stock for a shop or café on the High Street before the weekend visitors arrive, a machinery part for an Arun Valley farm or display material for an event near the castle. The pick-up time, the van and the handover arrangements are shaped by the hour your Arundel delivery must land.
Local collection, nationwide reach
Book a pick-up in Arundel or the surrounding BN18 villages for a drop on the Sussex coast or a direct run elsewhere in the UK. Nothing is booked until the route, the van and the collection time are settled.

Why dedicated delivery
The practical booking factors that decide how an urgent Arundel collection runs: the journey, the collection timing, the vehicle, the site access, the communication and the record at the end.
The consignment travels from the booked collection point to the destination on the dedicated journey rather than being routed through a parcel sorting network.
For urgent work, the exact postcode and readiness time are checked against available vehicles so the collection expectation is clear before confirmation.
Dimensions, weight, pallet count and access determine whether a small van or a larger commercial vehicle is the better option.
Reception procedures, loading bays, security, timed slots and contact details can be recorded before the driver arrives.
Delivery updates make it easier for the sender and recipient to manage a time-critical handover.
A delivery record closes the job and gives the sender confirmation that the consignment reached the destination.
Booking process
A four-stage process built around the actual route, load and deadline.
Send both postcodes, item details, readiness time, deadline and any access instructions.
Flextro matches the job to an appropriate vehicle and confirms the booking details before dispatch.
The assigned courier attends the collection point, checks the handover and starts the direct journey.
The consignment is handed over at destination and proof of delivery completes the booking.
Dedicated vs network delivery
The dedicated model is useful when the delivery needs to move as one job rather than enter a shared parcel network.
Customer feedback
Arundel service area
Flextro collects from offices, shops, farms and homes in Arundel and the villages of the Arun Valley, from Ford and Yapton towards the coast up to Amberley and Bury in the South Downs. Availability is checked from the exact collection postcode, and delivery can stay in West Sussex or go directly to any reachable UK address.
Arundel sits where the A27 crosses the River Arun between Chichester and Worthing, with the A284 running down to Littlehampton and the A29 heading north towards Pulborough. When the collection time, distance and deadline allow, goods collected in Arundel can reach London, Hampshire or the Midlands the same day with the driver who picked them up.
Type the destination to open its local page, or start a quote for any UK postcode.
Local operating context
Arundel is a small town with busy roads. The A27 narrows to a single carriageway around the town and queues build at peak times, visitor traffic for the castle and the river fills the streets at weekends and in summer, and parking on the steep, narrow roads near the High Street is limited. Farm and estate addresses in the valley can also be hard to find from a postcode alone, so share the exact postcode, the loading point, a contact name, the ready time and the delivery deadline.
The vehicle depends on the load. A small van handles documents, samples and boxed retail stock heading along the coast, while pallets, farm supplies or furniture from the Arun Valley usually need a larger van and someone on site to help load.

View relevant service →Pricing
Every Arundel job is costed against its own collection and delivery points. Distance, vehicle size, urgency, town-centre or rural access, loading time and any waiting all affect the price.
A short hop from Arundel to Littlehampton costs very differently from a Luton van taking antiques to London, so Flextro quotes from your actual collection and delivery postcodes, the load and the timing rather than a single Sussex rate.
The quote is confirmed before the booking is accepted, and the agreed price is the price you pay.

Questions before booking
The points Arundel firms, shops and households raise most often before arranging a same-day collection, answered plainly.
For urgent work, Flextro aims to get a driver to your Arundel address within 60 minutes of booking where driver availability and your details allow. The confirmed collection time depends on your postcode, when the goods are ready and access, and it is agreed before the booking is accepted.
Yes. Flextro collects across BN18 and the villages around Arundel, including Ford, Yapton, Walberton, Slindon, Amberley, Bury and Burpham. Availability is confirmed from the collection postcode.
Yes. Streets around the Arundel High Street and Tarrant Street are narrow and busy with visitors, so tell us where the driver can stop briefly, any rear access and a phone number for the person handing over the goods.
Yes. Your consignment stays on one vehicle from the Arundel pick-up to the delivery address. It is not mixed with other customers' goods, sorted at a hub or transferred to another driver.
Yes. Chichester, Worthing and Brighton are regular destinations from Arundel, and London is also reachable on the same day. Whether a specific deadline works depends on the collection time, distance and traffic, and Flextro confirms the delivery window before you book.
The quote takes in the mileage, the van required, the weight and bulk of the load, how urgently it must be collected and any time spent loading or waiting. You get a quote before you confirm, and the agreed price stays the same once the goods are collected.
Documents, parcels, antiques and furniture, retail stock, farm and machinery parts, fragile items and pallets. Arundel loads travel in anything from a small van to a Luton, whichever suits them.
Yes. Tell us the size, weight and value of the item and whether two people are needed to carry it. A dedicated van travels directly from the Arundel shop or store to the buyer, so the piece is not handled at a depot.
Yes. If you send from Arundel on a regular pattern, a contract run can fix a collection time and route. Share the usual days, destinations and typical load and Flextro will quote for it.
Yes. Flextro accepts bookings 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including bank holidays. Book online or call 020 4576 3438.
Goods-in-transit cover is included, subject to policy terms. For valuable, fragile or unusual items such as antiques, mention them before booking so appropriate cover and handling can be arranged. The goods-in-transit insurance guide explains how cover works.
