I was looking to have an electric bike collected from Loughborough to Anglesey; November 23. I found DCS by chance on a Google search and so glad l did. They really went over and beyond a large courier. So incredibly helpful, quick to respond to messages. The price was enticing too. Thanks everyone. Daniel
Great response when arranging urgent courier and really approachable staff both Mike (over the phone) and the man who collected the item (apologies I can’t remember his name). I felt our item was in safe hands. I will definitely use again and 100% recommend.
Fantastic experience the whole process was made really easy, highly recommended

Have used them for years to ship expensive, acoustic guitars. Fantastic service, as always. The office staff are quick to respond and are thoroughly professional. Thoroughly recommended.
Couldn’t ask for more…. Delivered on time and friendly service! :-)
I recently left some medication in a hotel in London. I realised when I was on a train to Exeter. DCS were the only ones that would help me as other companies wouldn’t accept medication. Fortunately for me I spoke to Aimee. It is almost impossible to get through to the hotel where I stayed. Both Aimee and I made many many calls but she eventually succeeded through sheer persistence. However when the courier went to the hotel he was told there was nothing for me. From this point Aimee went above and beyond over several days to eventually achieve a collection and delivery of my medication. I am on holiday from Australia for 2 months so really needed to get the medication back. I really can’t thank her enough and DCS for achieving something that at times looked impossible due to the mammoth task of contacting the hotel.
Sorry I got the wrong company. I have apologised to them
Guitar arrived with the the buyer safe and sound and over 24 hours early during a weekend. Buyer seemed completely satisfied. Excellent service from DCS, with friendly and informative telephone advice. Thank you.
Great services - the personnel are always at hand to help and guide you. I ship Regularly and my life has been made easier by Direct Courier solution. Shannon and the team are dedicated, selfless and always going an extra mile.
Great Service. Easy to book, regular status updates, quick response to email queries, confirmation of delivery. Highly recommended.
After another courier let me down to deliver my alloy wheels, I spoke to direct courier solutions, they were really helpful and gave me different options of services I could use. Will use again.
I have used Direct Courier Solutions for a couple of years and they have never let me down, the staff are always very friendly and deal with my queries promptly. I've recently started using their door-to-door delivery service on a dedicated van for my eBike deliveries and this service has been great for my customers and my business.
Very friendly and informative about the service (dedicated musical instrument pickup and delivery). Good price, pickup, and delivery happened as requested. Also fully insured for peace of mind. The parcel arrived in perfect nick. Really good service.
I always use this company when sending musical instruments - they are competitively priced, offer an insured service, and their sales folk are really helpful.
Like other reviewers I was shocked and offended by other couriers who won't carry or won't insure musical instruments. Lazy profit at the expense of service. I was despairing. But then a bit of research led to DCS who will both carry and insure musical instruments. They were absolutely brilliant. Great communication, great service and a happy person at the other end of a well-managed and careful delivery. Highly recommended.
