Same-day delivery

Collected and delivered today, anywhere within about 25 miles of Reading.

When it needs to go today, message Tom with the pick-up and drop-off postcodes. He'll tell you when he can collect and give you a fixed price before you book. The van goes straight from your collection to your delivery, and you get a photo once it's handed over.

Same-day works best when you get in touch in the morning, but it's always worth asking later in the day too.

Ideal for

  • Urgent parcels
  • Forgotten items
  • Last-minute gifts

Next-day delivery

Book today and it's delivered tomorrow at a time you choose.

If it can wait until tomorrow, next-day delivery costs less and lets you choose a delivery time that suits the person receiving it. It's a good fit for online orders, planned drop-offs and anything that needs someone to be in.

As with every job, you'll get a photo once it's delivered.

Ideal for

  • Online shop orders
  • Timed drop-offs
  • Items for collection points

Fragile item delivery

Ceramics, glass, artwork and anything you'd rather not trust to a parcel network.

Parcel networks move thousands of boxes a day and fragile items don't always survive the journey. With ZipPoint, your item is loaded by hand, secured with blankets and straps, and stays in the same van until it's delivered.

Tom has years of warehouse experience handling breakable stock, so he knows how to load things so they don't shift. Box items up well, tell him what's inside, and he'll take it from there.

Ideal for

  • Ceramics and glass
  • Framed artwork
  • Handmade products

Who we work with

E-commerce

Local delivery for small online shops and makers who want orders to arrive in one piece.

If you sell online around Berkshire, a local courier can get orders to customers faster and with more care than a parcel network. Tom can collect on set days each week, deliver at agreed times and send you a photo of every handover, so you can tell your customers exactly when their order arrived.

Private customers

One-off deliveries for people around Reading, from a single parcel to a small piece of furniture.

Bought something on Marketplace and can't collect it? Need to get a box to family across town? ZipPoint handles one-off deliveries for private customers too. Send a photo and the postcodes and you'll get a fixed price before you commit.

Questions

How far do you go?

Anywhere within about 25 miles of Reading, which covers Wokingham, Bracknell, Newbury and Henley. If you're just outside that, ask anyway and Tom will tell you honestly.

What fits in the van?

It's a small van, so think parcels, boxes, a few bags of stock or a small piece of furniture. If you're not sure, send a photo and the rough size on WhatsApp.

Can you pack things for me?

Tom can add blankets, bubble wrap and straps for the journey, but please box your items up first. For anything unusual, message beforehand and he'll suggest the best way.

Do you do regular collections for online shops?

Yes. If you sell online and send out orders around Berkshire, Tom can collect on set days each week. Message him with roughly how many parcels and where they go.

Got something to send?

Message Tom with what it is and where it's going. You'll get a friendly reply and a fixed price.
