What is Next Day shipping?

Next-Day services allow shippers to have their item delivered the next working day after the courier collects it from their chosen address or drop-off point anywhere in the UK.

What are the benefits of Next Day shipping for…

Individual shippers?

It's fast

The main drawback of buying online is that you have to wait for your purchase, so it mitigates that problem if a company offers Next Day delivery. Equally, if you perhaps *ahem* "misplaced" your cousin's birthday gift, it's reassuring to know that your parcel will be collected and delivered the next working day within a few clicks.

It's convenient

Next Day services aren't all collections. In fact, Drop Off services at local ParcelShops and lockers can be more convenient for sending on the go!

There are thousands of Drop Off points located across the UK, so you can book a Drop Off service with us and hand over your package- safe in the knowledge it will be delivered Next-Day and allow you to continue running your errands.

It's affordable

Booking a Next Day delivery doesn't have to cost a fortune! Not when you book through Interparcel! As a courier comparison and booking site, we are able to offer lower prices for Next Day shipping with the world's best delivery firms.

Businesses?

Improves the customer experience

Next Day delivery incentivises consumers to purchase from your store and helps to maintain a smooth delivery experience. If you also offer a returns service, our simple 'Return Parcel' feature available within our Shipping Manager allows you to select the order and book a return delivery in just a few clicks. You can then send the recipient the correct labels to attach to the parcel and wait for your item to be safely returned.

Helps to increase conversions

If you want to increase your conversion rate, offering Next Day delivery amongst other shipping options like Economy and Express services keeps you from falling behind your competitors and keeps up with consumer needs who are more impatient with shipping times. Courier services that are affordable and convenient sell themselves, so you'll see more visitors on your website or store! Next Day shipping can also be used to focus on advertising campaigns and social media promotions.

Builds brand loyalty

Offering Next Day delivery shows that your brand is reliable, trustworthy, and can get their order at their doorstep fast. If you can't provide Next-Day delivery for everyone, you could offer it during busier periods or as a perk to attract new customers to your store.

Is Next Day shipping only available in the UK?

Yes- Next Day delivery is only available in mainland UK. If you're looking to send goods abroad quickly, then a speedy Express delivery service is the choice for you. While technically we don't offer a Next Day service internationally, delivery to Europe and worldwide can be as quick as the next working day after collection depending on the courier service and time of booking. For example, shipments sent to France, Germany or Ireland (even as far as the USA) are often delivered the next day or within 2 days.
