Same Day Courier Maidstone
As the county town, Maidstone handles more than its share of paperwork that can't wait: court and council deadlines, signed contracts and tenders. Its industrial estates and business parks add stock, parts and spares that have to go out the same day.
A dedicated run means nobody else's deliveries come first. We collect, drive direct and keep you posted until it's signed for, whether it's crossing town or heading up the M20.

Maidstone Couriers: the M20, the A229 and the A249
The M20 skirts the north of the town, with junctions 5, 6 and 7 all serving Maidstone, and it's the direct line to London one way and Ashford and the Channel ports the other. The A229 climbs Blue Bell Hill to Medway and the M2, and the A249 links junction 7 to Sittingbourne and Sheppey. In town, the one-way system around the river and the bridges decides how quickly a driver reaches you, so we allow for it at peak times.

Five Questions to Ask Any Courier First
- 1 Will they collect today, not tomorrow? Plenty of firms that say 'courier' mean next-day parcels.
- 2 Is the price the price? Get the figure before the driver sets off, not after delivery.
- 3 Can they get into London without a depot stop? The M20 run is quick when it's direct.
- 4 Do they charge more at the weekend? Ask first. Ours doesn't change.
- 5 Is your consignment insured while it's moving? Goods-in-transit cover should come as standard.
Fantastic service - absolutely saved the day and will 100% use again!
Excellent service. Request made 24 hours before the required collection and delivery, fully kept up to date, on time and updated throughout the collection and delivery. Thoroughly recommend.
Arrived early, delivered early. Confirmed delivery immediately on sensitive drop. They answer the phone, and are a million lightyears better than their competitors at everything that they do. Hard to fault anything.
So impressed with Red Eagle. They have been fantastic at communicating promptly and after years of using various unreliable couriers, it’s so refreshing to find one that’s so great at customer service, and pricing!
Excellent service – highly recommended!

We used Red Eagle Logistic Ltd to collect and transport a large donation of mobility equipment for Restart Mobility CIC. The service was excellent from start to finish.
Communication was very good, the collection and delivery were handled professionally, and everything arrived safely.
As a small organisation supporting people with disabilities, finding a reliable transport company is extremely important to us. We are very grateful for their service and hope to work with Red Eagle Logistic again for future collections.
Thank you from everyone at Restart Mobility CIC. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I’m honestly so happy with the service I received from Red Eagle Logistics. I was a little worried at first because I’d never arranged this type of delivery before, especially as the medication was expensive and very sensitive to temperature.

I contacted them at very short notice to transport my vaccines from Croydon to Peterborough, and within about an hour of my enquiry everything was arranged and collected.
The gentleman who collected and delivered them was fantastic. He kept in communication with me throughout the journey and even took pictures at both collection and delivery, which really reassured me that everything was being handled properly.
My medication arrived safely, communication was excellent from start to finish, and their price was also much more reasonable than other quotes I received.
Very prompt, reliable and professional service. I’m genuinely happy I found them and will definitely use them again in the future. I would absolutely recommend Red Eagle Logistics. Thank you! 🙏🏽
Red eagle delivered my parcels with professional standards and on time. Would 100% recommend!
