Get a QuoteWhen a Walkden factory line is about to stall for missing parts, the call comes to Maine Couriers. We dispatch a dedicated vehicle within minutes, the consignment moves on a direct route from Walkden to the destination (or Walkden into the line), and the driver hands the parts over to the named recipient on the line or in goods-in.
Vehicle choice on a Walkden automotive job is dictated by the consignment, not by what's convenient. Small van for a single sample part. LWB for a sub-assembly going line-side. Luton with tail lift for fragile body panels. 7.5 tonne for full-pallet supplier flow. Whichever vehicle is right, the price quoted on the Walkden call holds for the whole run.
Every Walkden automotive booking includes a 60-minute collection target, a dedicated vehicle and driver, full goods-in-transit insurance up to consignment value, live driver tracking, signed proof of delivery on completion, and 24/7/365 phone support. The price quoted on the Walkden call is the price billed — fuel, tolls, waiting time, and out-of-hours work are all factored in up front.

Tier 1 suppliers feeding multiple OEMs. Tier 2 suppliers serving Tier 1 customers. Prototype and engineering services moving development parts between Walkden sites.
