Service

Courier & Same-Day Delivery Service

Alongside passenger transport, Western Cars provides a courier service for time-critical collections and deliveries around Worthing, West Sussex and the wider south. Documents, parts, samples and equipment move in the same vehicles, driven by the same licensed and vetted drivers.

Same-day collections and deliveries across Sussex

What we move

The courier service is built for jobs where timing matters more than volume:

Legal, financial and contract documents
Medical samples and pharmacy items
Engineering parts, tools and spares
Trade samples and prototypes
IT equipment and peripherals
Keys, passes and access equipment
Urgent business supplies and stationery

Local knowledge makes the difference

A same-day delivery is only as good as the route planning behind it. Because our drivers work across Worthing, Adur and Arun every day, they know the quickest way between the town centres, the industrial estates and the business parks, and they know where traffic actually builds up.

We also operate 24 hours, which is useful for consignments that need to move outside business hours, or for a job that has to be collected late and delivered first thing.

Business courier accounts

If you send items regularly, a courier account works in the same way as our corporate travel accounts: agreed rates, priority scheduling and a single itemised monthly invoice covering everything sent in the period. Call 01903 500600 to set one up.
