What Our Customers Say
Flexible Gumtree Collection & Delivery UK-Wide
When you buy or sell through Gumtree, arranging transport is often the hardest part. Most items are too big for traditional parcel services, and sellers don’t always offer delivery.
That’s where Porta comes in. We make it easy to book a Gumtree courier to collect directly from the seller and deliver straight to your door — or vice versa.
✔ Same day, next day or scheduled options
✔ Goods-in-transit cover (Standard and Premium) with Real-Time SMS Updates
✔ Van space available for large furniture, appliances and more
✔ Eco-friendly delivery model using vehicles already en route
Whether it’s a wardrobe in Wigan or a bike in Bristol, we’ve got drivers nearby ready to help.
