Pony Express Couriers

Pony Express runs a same day courier service across Royton and the Oldham district — covering the OL2 postcode and the adjoining OL1, OL4, OL9 and OL16 areas — 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.

Royton coverage and response times

From Royton we reach Shaw, Chadderton, Oldham town centre and Middleton within 10–15 minutes. The A627(M) links us straight to the M60 orbital and the M62, so Manchester city centre is around 20–25 minutes and Rochdale even closer. That motorway access makes onward runs to Leeds, Liverpool and the Midlands quick and predictable.

Industries we move every day in Royton

Once a centre of cotton spinning, Royton's old mills now house manufacturing, warehousing and distribution alongside engineering and a busy base of trade and retail suppliers. We routinely carry production components, palletised stock, textiles and urgent business documents.
