I think you will find most will, but they will charge extra. Alternatively I am sure than you could deliver to their depot. I use an APC franchise, look on https://www.apc-overnight.com.

Thanks.
Most seem not to do Saturday collection though- Postvan, Parcels4delivery, Parcels2go.
I have been told by APC to try their local depot.0 -
APC local depots are individual franchisees. Some are very helful, others not so, It's worth a try cos you may get lucky.Don't lie, thieve, cheat or steal. The Government do not like the competition.

Thanks. I tried it and guess what they weren't.:o Looks like there is not a single delivery company in Britain which collects on a Saturday.

Which area of the UK are you, Entertainer?
I ask because I'm a courier and might be able to sort you out if you're local.0 -
hi there, i think you will find all courier companies will collect on a saturday if the goods are being sent on a same day service as oppose to a next day service. same day is a lot more expensive but good are lets say, handled more carefully, on a sameday....so its worth paying the extra sometimes,especially for more fragile items.
i am also a courier,working for lewis day ltd. we have depots up and down uk,
will try and get you a cheaper deal if i can help. good luck mate.0 -
