Pricing is by quote — call 0800 288 4052 or email sales@ponyexpress.co.uk.

On-board courier, explained

Rather than handing your shipment to a freight network, we book a courier onto the next suitable flight, who carries it as accompanying baggage and hands it over in person at the destination — ideal for urgent parts, documents or samples where every hour counts.

Getting to Rrëshen

Rrëshen sits in the hills of the Mirditë District, part of Lezhë County in northern Albania, historically known for copper mining. The nearest international gateway is Tirana International Airport, with the final leg — around 90 minutes to two hours by road north through Lezhë — completed by hire car.

Typical shipments to Rrëshen

• AOG aircraft-on-ground parts
• Mining and industrial equipment components
• Legal and financial documents
• Medical supplies and samples
• Prototypes and engineering samples

Customs and clearance

Your courier carries all invoices and export paperwork and personally clears the shipment through customs at Tirana before continuing overland, avoiding the delays that can come with unattended freight.

Why Pony Express

Over 30 years of urgent courier experience, a 24/7/365 desk, goods-in-transit insurance as standard, and a courier who never leaves your shipment until it's signed for in Rrëshen.
