Porta's same-day courier service in Leicester
Porta is the platform that puts you in touch with vetted independent drivers for same-day courier work in Leicester, drivers already out around the city and across Leicestershire, from Oadby and Wigston to Loughborough and Hinckley. Book one and your item goes direct from collection to delivery on the same day, wherever a driver is free.
What gets moved is mostly large and awkward, furniture, appliances, garment and factory stock, car parts, the loads a parcel network avoids, though single urgent boxes are just as welcome. The drivers' vehicles run from a hatchback up to a Luton van, so size is rarely the issue.
One vehicle carries it the whole way, so nothing passes through a depot or waits overnight on a hub, and Standard and Premium bookings are tracked with real-time SMS updates. Enter your postcodes for a quote in seconds.
What same-day costs from Leicester
Same-day is priced on your actual journey, so you only ever pay for the distance your item travels, with no flat rate hiding the cost of a short hop or padding out a long one.
Every corridor out of Leicester, from a short hop to a cross-country run, is priced the same way. Enter your two postcodes for a live same-day quote.
Same-day collection covers Leicester and the towns around it, from Wigston and Oadby to Loughborough, Hinckley, Coalville, Melton Mowbray and Market Harborough. Central to the Midlands, a driver is rarely far away.

Choose how fast, and when it lands
You decide how quickly it moves and how firmly the arrival is fixed. Have it collected today rather than waiting for the next run, pick a two-hour window so you are not stuck in all day, or lock in delivery by 5pm or by 10pm when the deadline is real. Each one is a separate option, so you only pay for the certainty your job actually needs. The full list is on the same day courier page.
Because Leicester sits in the middle, a run out of it in almost any direction plays to Porta strength. A dedicated courier charges the drive home whether it is loaded or empty; Porta simply hands your item to a driver already going that way, so the empty return never reaches your quote and you pay only for miles that count.

What our customers say
This was a great experience with a fantastic delivery at a good price. Picked up on time, delivered to the right place, all carefully done and with a smile.
From the first initial request everything went like clockwork. Item was picked up on day requested and delivered the same day. Very efficiently and polite men. Informed when picked up and called before delivery with arrival time. Would definitely recommend
Delivery was very efficient especially as I booked to move furniture at short notice. Great service.
Same-day courier in Leicester: questions
How soon can a driver get to me in Leicester?
Frequently inside a couple of hours when one is nearby. Through busier spells a booked window is safer than hoping, and asking earlier opens up more choice. Collection today moves your job ahead of the next available run.
Do you handle urgent trade and manufacturing jobs in Leicester?
Yes. A single driver on a direct run suits urgent garment or textile stock, materials between units, or a part a line is stalled on, which is exactly the work Porta is built around. Smaller consignments fit too when the deadline outweighs the size.
Can you send a same-day job from Leicester to another city?
Yes, and its central spot helps. Rather than a round-trip charge you are matched to a driver already heading your way, so a run to London, Birmingham, Nottingham or Leeds reflects the real distance.
Can I book a weekend delivery in Leicester?
Yes. Saturdays, Sundays and bank holidays are all covered, so a weekend job is booked the same way as any other. A driver has to be free nearby, but across Leicester and the wider county that is usually the case. See Leicester City Council's roads and travel information.
