Last mile delivery is the final leg from your warehouse, shop or supplier to your customer’s door. First Choice Transportation Ltd runs it as a dedicated van per job from Southgate, London N14, across London and the UK, 24 hours a day, with GPS tracking and a signed, photographed proof of delivery texted to you. Call 020 8202 2008.
Our last mile delivery service is built for businesses whose customers are waiting: online shops, wholesalers, showrooms, printers, trade counters and suppliers who need an order to arrive today, intact, with proof.
Each job is one van and one driver. The driver checks labels and quantities against your paperwork at collection, drives direct to the customer, takes a signature and a photo on handover, and the proof of delivery is texted to you.
| Vehicle | First 10 miles | Each mile after | Typical load |
|---|---|---|---|
| Car or small van (up to SWB) | £40 | £1.25 | Parcels, boxes, single orders |
| Long wheelbase van | £60 | £1.80 | Furniture, bulk orders, long items |

All prices are plus VAT. Several drops on one route are quoted as a single job. See courier prices for the rate card.
A last mile courier differs from a parcel network in one way that matters to your customer: the order is not on a round with 120 other stops. It is collected, driven direct and delivered, usually within hours of the call.
Typical jobs:
Need it within the hour? See same day courier.
For regular last mile logistics, the same vans and drivers run the same route for you day after day: a daily run from your warehouse to your London customers, a weekly round to your stockists, or a standing early-morning delivery to a site.
Tell us the pattern and the addresses and we quote the round as one job. For rounds with many stops, see multi drop delivery; for larger loads between sites, see large item courier.
Last mile delivery is the final leg of a journey: from a warehouse, depot, shop or supplier to the customer’s door. It is the part the customer actually sees, and the part parcel networks handle worst, because the item is on a crowded round. First Choice Transportation runs it as a dedicated van per job.
A single delivery is priced like any job: £40 for the first 10 miles then £1.25 per mile in a car or small van, or £60 then £1.80 per mile in a long wheelbase or Luton van, plus VAT. Several drops on one route are quoted as one job before you book. Call 020 8202 2008.
Yes. We collect from your warehouse, depot, shop or supplier and deliver direct to your customer, with your name on the job if you want it that way. The driver checks labels and quantities against your paperwork before loading, so what leaves your building is what arrives at the customer.
Yes. Give us the list of addresses and we plan one route in one van with one driver, and quote it as a single job. Every drop gets a signature and a photo, and you receive the proof of delivery by text for each one. See our multi drop delivery page for regular rounds.
Every van is GPS tracked throughout the job and our two operators, on the phones 24 hours a day, call with updates as the driver collects, travels and delivers. We can call you, your customer, or both. On handover the recipient signs, the driver photographs the delivery, and the proof is texted.
The driver is with you within 30 to 45 minutes of booking across London and the Home Counties, or 45 minutes to an hour elsewhere in the UK, 24 hours a day including weekends. For planned work, book the day before and the van arrives at the agreed time. Message WhatsApp 07507 612919 to set it up.
