Pony Express Couriers

Pony Express covers Bude and the North Cornwall coast with a same day courier service, working the EX23 postcode along the Atlantic Highway (A39). We aim to collect within 30–45 minutes and then drive direct to the delivery point anywhere in the UK. Pricing is always by quote – call 0800 288 4052 for an instant price.

Bude coverage and response times

Bude is a little off the beaten track, sitting on the A39 between Barnstaple and Wadebridge, so we schedule collections here to catch the best onward connections east and up-country. We cover the surrounding villages including Stratton, Poughill and Widemouth Bay as part of the same visit.

Industries we move every day in Bude

Tourism and hospitality drive much of the local economy, particularly around the surf beaches, and we're often called on to move urgent equipment and supplies for hotels, holiday parks and watersports operators. Agriculture remains important further inland, and we regularly carry parts and documents for farms and rural businesses across the district.
