Pony Express Couriers

Pony Express provides a same day courier service across Thornbury and South Gloucestershire — covering the BS35 postcode and the neighbouring BS32, BS37 and GL13 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.

Thornbury coverage and response times

Our drivers cover Thornbury, Alveston, Oldbury-on-Severn and Tytherington quickly, usually within 30 minutes, and reach Yate, Bradley Stoke and Severn Beach soon after. The A38 runs south toward Bristol and north to Gloucester, while Junctions 14 and 16 of the M5 are close at hand, so loads can be heading toward Birmingham, the South West or across the Severn into Wales within minutes.

Industries we move every day in Thornbury

The area sits within easy reach of the Filton aerospace cluster and the Oldbury and Berkeley nuclear sites, and we regularly carry aerospace components, engineering parts and project freight for these sectors. Thornbury's own light-industrial estates add manufacturing and trade work, while the surrounding Severn Vale farmland keeps us moving agricultural supplies and produce.
