Same day courier for film and media

Shoots run on tight schedules, and a missing lens, drive or prop can hold up a whole crew. We collect within the hour and drive straight to the set, studio or edit suite.

Drives and rushes stay with one driver from collection to handover, and we can deliver to a named person only.

Why film, TV and media teams choose Vanguard

Straight to set

We deliver to the unit base, studio gate or location you give us, and call your contact on arrival.

Drives kept secure

Footage stays with one driver and is handed only to the person you name.

Hire house runs

We collect from and return to kit hire houses, so your crew doesn't lose half a day doing it.

How a same day booking works

  1. Tell us the job

    Call, WhatsApp or send the quote form with both postcodes and what you're sending. We reply with a price and a collection time.

  2. We collect within the hour

    Once you confirm, the nearest suitable driver heads to you. We aim to be there within 60 minutes.

  3. Follow the journey

    Your goods stay on that one vehicle. You get live ETAs, and a real person if you need to change anything.

  4. Delivered direct

    We hand over at the delivery address and confirm to you as soon as it's done.
