Who we are
Kangaroo Sameday Courier UK is an independent same day courier based in Kennington, south London, run by its owner, Idris Williams. We have been trading since 2017 and now run our own small, medium and long-wheelbase vans with 25 drivers across the UK, each with their own car, so there is usually someone within an hour to an hour and a half of a collection anywhere in England.
[Owner to add 2–3 sentences in his own words: why he started the business and what he wants a customer to feel when the van pulls up.]
How we work
Every booking is a direct journey: one driver collects your consignment and takes it straight to the delivery address, with no depot or hub in between. You get the price before you book, from a car to a tail-lift Luton, and the same rates apply 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. See our courier prices, the areas we cover and how a business account works.
Around half of our work is medical: pathology samples, blood products and pharmacy deliveries carried for national logistics networks. Our medical drivers are trained in the packaging and transport of UN3373 Category B biological substances by road (ISSL Ltd) and in Good Distribution Practice for pharmaceutical transport. Every driver is DBS-checked. We hold goods-in-transit cover of £20,000 per day, £2 million public liability and CMR cover for Europe, and all our vehicles are ULEZ-compliant.
For loads too big for a Luton we work with licensed haulage partners for 7.5 tonne and HGV work, and we hire in Luton tail-lift and refrigerated vans when a job needs one.
