Pony Express Couriers

Pony Express provides a same day courier service across Redruth and central Cornwall — covering the TR15 and TR16 postcodes and the neighbouring TR14, TR1 and TR3 districts — with collection in around 30 minutes and a direct drive to anywhere in the UK. Pricing is by quote. Call 0800 288 4052 for an instant no-obligation quote.

Redruth coverage and response times

Our drivers cover Redruth, Pool, Carn Brea and Illogan quickly, usually within 30 minutes, and reach Camborne, Truro and Falmouth soon after. The A30 trunk road runs right past the town, giving a fast route east toward Bodmin, Exeter and the M5, while the A393 links south to Falmouth's docks. Newquay's Cornwall Airport is around 30 minutes away for onward air freight.

Industries we move every day in Redruth

Built on Cornwall's mining heritage, the Redruth and Pool corridor is now a hub for advanced engineering, manufacturing and technology around the Pool Innovation Centre and the surrounding business parks. We carry components, tooling and finished goods for these firms, alongside marine parts heading to Falmouth, produce from the local growers, and urgent documents for businesses across central Cornwall.
