Overnight courier

Collected tonight, delivered while the UK sleeps — 24 hours a day, 365 days a year

When it has to be there first thing

Some deliveries can’t wait until tomorrow’s parcel run. A part needed for a morning repair, stock for a shop opening, or equipment for an early start on site — Silver Bullet Express collects it in the evening or overnight and drives it straight to its destination, so it’s there when the day begins.

Unlike a next day network, your consignment isn’t trunked through hubs overnight and sorted with thousands of other parcels. It goes on one dedicated vehicle, with one driver, directly from collection to delivery.

We’re available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, from our bases covering Milton Keynes, Bedford, Luton and Northampton — including nights, weekends and bank holidays.

Overnight Courier FAQs

Answers to the questions we’re asked most about this service.

Can’t see your question? Call 0800 907 0016 — we answer 24/7.

What is an overnight courier?

An overnight courier collects your goods in the evening or during the night and delivers them before the next working day starts. With us, that journey happens on a dedicated vehicle driven directly to the destination, rather than through a next day parcel network.

How is this different from next day delivery?

Next day services collect in the afternoon, sort parcels through hubs overnight and deliver at some point the following day. Our overnight service drives your consignment straight there, so you can agree a delivery time rather than waiting for a window.

How late can you collect?

There’s no cut-off — we work 24 hours a day. Call 0800 907 0016 with the collection and delivery postcodes and we’ll tell you when it can arrive.

Can you deliver before a business opens?

Yes. Tell us what time it needs to be there and about any access arrangements, such as a key holder or a secure drop location, and we’ll plan the journey around it.

How much does an overnight courier cost?

Every job is priced individually on distance, vehicle size and urgency. Send us the collection and delivery postcodes and a rough idea of the load and we’ll give you a free quote — call 0800 907 0016 for an instant answer or use our online quote form.

Is my delivery insured overnight?

Yes. Every load is covered by a minimum of £10,000 indemnity insurance from the moment we collect it, day or night. Higher cover is available on request.
