Plan a St Ives delivery.
- Old town streets: many are narrow, steep or pedestrian, and parts of the town centre have daytime vehicle restrictions. Tell us where a vehicle can stop and how far the goods need to be carried.
- Artwork: give the framed or crated size, weight and value, and how the piece is packed. Our preparation guide explains packaging.
- Hotels and holiday lets: name the delivery entrance, the receiving hours and a contact.
- Summer: traffic into the town is heavy in peak season, so give a realistic receiving window.

Questions about St Ives deliveries.
Can you collect artwork from a gallery? Yes. Tell us the packed size, weight and value of each piece and how it is protected, and we will plan the vehicle and handling.
Can a van reach my address in the old town? It depends on the street and the time of day. Describe the address and the nearest stopping point; if a vehicle cannot reach the door, the handover point is agreed in advance.
Can I send something from St Ives today? Same-day collection depends on when the goods are ready, the destination and a suitable vehicle. Request a quote with the ready time and deadline, and we will confirm what is possible.
A few details, made clear.
Do you collect and deliver outside Cornwall?
Yes. We arrange deliveries from Cornwall to other UK destinations, collections elsewhere for delivery into Cornwall and UK-wide journeys. European and worldwide shipments can also be reviewed. Give both ends of the route rather than only the destination, together with the goods and any deadline.
What if there are stairs, a long carry or difficult access?
Explain the floors, carry distance, doorway and stair dimensions, stopping place and the goods’ size and weight. Photographs can help clarify the route from the vehicle to the handover point. Additional handling and any extra person must be arranged beforehand; selecting a larger vehicle does not provide a two-person crew or confirm safe access.
Can you move fragile or high-value items?
Describe the item, its value, packaging, permitted orientation and any special handling or no-transfer requirement before booking. Photographs can help explain the goods and their protection. We need to confirm suitability and the relevant liability and insurance arrangements for that consignment. A Fragile label alone does not establish specialist handling or cover.
Can I request a fixed delivery time or receiving appointment?
Yes. Give the exact appointment, correct receiving entrance and a contact who can accept the goods. Dedicated and Premium allow requested dates and times for review. Standard uses flexible, operator-selected days, so a fixed appointment needs review for Premium or Dedicated. Fixed appointments are outside Economy. Make clear whether the deadline means arrival at the gate or completed unloading and handover.
