Royal Tunbridge Wells coverage and response times

We collect from Royal Tunbridge Wells town centre, Southborough, Rusthall, Pembury, Fordcombe and the commercial areas along the Vale Road and Longfield Road corridors within 30 minutes of booking. The A21 dual carriageway runs north to join the M25 at junction 5 in approximately 25 minutes, giving access to London and the national motorway network. Tonbridge (TN9) is 4 miles north via the A26, typically a 10-minute run. Sevenoaks (TN13) is around 18 miles north via the A21. Gatwick Airport is approximately 35 minutes north via the A264 and M23.

Industries we move every day in Royal Tunbridge Wells

Royal Tunbridge Wells has a predominantly professional and service-based economy. Legal practices, financial advisers, architects and consultancies are well established in the town and generate regular same-day movements of contracts, legal documents and client files. The healthcare sector — including Tunbridge Wells Hospital at Pembury and a large number of private clinics — creates demand for urgent medical and laboratory collections. Technology and media businesses that have decamped from London add a modern dimension, alongside the creative agencies and retailers that serve the town’s affluent catchment. Construction and property firms are also frequent customers.
