Has something got to leave Marazion today? Flextro sets one van aside for it and carries the goods from the seafront, the shop or the yard straight to the delivery address, whether that is Truro, Plymouth or a long way up country. Nothing is left at a depot and nobody else's parcels ride along.
A selection of our clients
Flextro delivers for Marazion 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 collects in Marazion and delivers the same day, using a single vehicle from the pick-up point right through to the destination.
It suits the jobs that will not keep: hospitality supplies for a seafront business in the season, gift stock a shop has promised a customer, a part for a boat or a workshop, or documents an office in Truro needs signed today. The timing, the van and the handover are arranged around the deadline.
Local collection, nationwide reach
Book a collection on the seafront, in the town or out in the villages behind it, for a drop across west Cornwall or a direct run up the A30. The van and the timings are agreed before anything is confirmed.

Why dedicated delivery
The practical booking factors that decide how an urgent Marazion 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
Marazion service area
Flextro collects in Marazion from the shops, galleries and cafes along the seafront, from homes and workshops in the streets above it, from the businesses at Long Rock and from the villages spread around the bay towards Perranuthnoe and Goldsithney. Availability is judged from the collection postcode, and the drop can stay in Cornwall or run straight up the country.
The A394 heads east to Helston and the Lizard, the A30 skirts the bay towards Penzance one way and Hayle, Camborne and Truro the other, and St Erth is the local rail interchange. When the ready time, the distance and the deadline suit one another, a load taken on beside the bay can reach Devon or beyond the same day.
Type the destination to open its local page, or start a quote for any UK postcode.
Local operating context
Collections in Marazion need a word about the seafront. The road along the front is narrow with limited waiting, the causeway is covered at high tide so anything crossing to the island depends on the tides and the island's own arrangements, the car parks fill through the summer, and visitor traffic slows the approach roads. Give us the exact address, where the driver can pull in, a contact name, the ready time and the delivery deadline.
Pick the van by the load. Documents, samples and boxed stock heading to Truro travel in a small van, while catering equipment, furniture, artwork or pallets need a larger vehicle and a hand at the kerb.

View relevant service →Pricing
A Marazion price is worked out for the trip you need. The mileage, the vehicle, how soon a driver has to arrive, access on the seafront, loading time and any waiting all feed into it.
A short run round to Penzance is nothing like a Luton van carrying stock to the Midlands, so the quote follows your two postcodes, the load and the timing rather than one rate for the county.
The quote is confirmed before the booking is accepted, and the agreed price is the price you pay.

Questions before booking
Plain answers to what businesses around the bay ask before booking a collection.
On urgent work Flextro aims to be with you inside 60 minutes of booking, where a vehicle is free and your details allow it. West Cornwall is a long way down, so the realistic time for your postcode is confirmed before the job is accepted.
Yes. Long Rock, Ludgvan, Crowlas, Perranuthnoe, Goldsithney, St Erth and the rest of the TR17 area are all covered, with availability checked from the pick-up postcode.
Yes. Tell us where the goods will be waiting and whether the van can stand outside, because the road along the front is narrow and parking is limited in the season.
The causeway is only open at low tide and the island has its own access arrangements, so tell us what is being moved and when it is needed, and Flextro will confirm what can be done and where the handover would be.
Yes. Your goods travel alone from collection to delivery, with no depot stop and no handover to another driver.
Yes. Penzance, Helston, Truro and St Austell are the everyday destinations, and Plymouth or Exeter are possible depending on the collection time. The window is confirmed before you book.
It depends on the distance, the vehicle, the size and weight of the load, how quickly the driver is needed and any waiting. The quote is agreed first and does not change afterwards.
Documents, parcels, gift and retail stock, artwork, catering equipment, boat parts, permitted medical items and pallets. From the smallest van to a Luton, the vehicle is set by the load.
Yes. A contract run holds the same weekly slot, which suits seafront shops and kitchens with a steady pattern. Give the usual timings and destinations, with a sample load, and a price follows.
Yes. Jobs are accepted at any hour on any day of the year, bank holidays included, using the online form or 020 4576 3438.
Goods-in-transit cover applies, subject to policy terms. Say before booking if anything is valuable, fragile or unusual so the right cover and handling can be agreed. The goods-in-transit insurance guide explains what is covered.
