• United Carriers is to break into guaranteed next-day delivery with its "Point to Point" nationwide service.
Launched at the Transport and Distribution Services Show, Point to Point will use a network of 50 depots which, says the company, will allow customers to drop off packages as late as 19:00hrs for delivery before 10.30hrs the next morning.
"We knew from our market research that there was a demand for a low-cost, reliable service exclusive to business users. Point to Point fits the bill," says United's sales and marketing manager Robin Payne.
