What to expect from cheap couriers

Although the terms “cheap”, or “budget” often implies poor quality that isn’t necessarily the case when it comes to the courier market. The reason why the cost of courier services has decreased in recent years is largely due to the way in which technology has opened up the market. The development of price comparison sites such as deliveryquotecompare.com have revolutionised the market by allowing independent couriers access to a far wider range of jobs than they would previously have had access to. 

This in turn has enabled them to secure multiple jobs along a particular route (whereas previously they may of only had the one), which has enabled them to reduce the cost of each individual job and leverage in cheap prices. It’s a simple case of efficiencies of scale; by operating at a greater capacity without an associated increase in costs, couriers are able to provide a much more affordable service. With couriers, cheap doesn't mean nasty!
