The problem
A sample, specimen or medicine has to move fast and stay compliant — and you need a driver you can trust with sensitive, time-critical work.
How we solve it
Our GDP-compliant, DBS-checked drivers handle pathology, specimens and pharma with chain-of-custody and temperature-controlled options, 24/7.
Get a medical courier quoteSending blood, urine, swab or tissue samples to a laboratory? Diagnostic samples have their own packaging rules and lab cut-off times, so they have their own page.
Biological sample courierWhat Our Medical Courier Drivers Carry Every Week
Not a list of what we could carry. This is the work our DBS-checked drivers already do, every week in Birmingham and regularly in Manchester and Liverpool, handled to GDP standards.
- Blood and blood components: whole blood, red cells, platelets and fresh frozen plasma, in temperature-monitored containers and cool boxes
- Pathology specimens: blood, tissue and fluid samples, from hospitals and clinics to testing laboratories
- Donor session equipment, saline, empty transport boxes, paperwork and urgent medical supplies
And when it can't wait: matched blood components for emergency hospital care.

Red Eagle in action
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! 🙏🏽
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. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Red eagle delivered my parcels with professional standards and on time. Would 100% recommend!
