How our order process works

Overview

If you’re looking for courier services to the UK then look no further than Nightline, a specialist that company that organises parcel delivery services to the UK on a daily basis. A considerable number of businesses in Northern Ireland trust Nightline with their important deliveries, using the firm’s Smartship® technology to track their consignments all of the way.

Day one – afternoon

The first stage is for a local van operator to go to the client to pick up the parcel. It is then driven to the local depot where it is scanned, sorted and prepared for onward transportation to the Republic of Ireland and Nightline’s central distribution centre.

Day one – evening

After the parcels have arrived at Nightline’s central hub just off the M50 near Dublin Airport, they are scanned and their whereabouts is registered immediately on the company’s website. The barcode system used by Nightline ensures customers that need a next day delivery service to the UK are always informed about the location of their package.

Day two – early morning

By early morning, the parcels are on their way to the UK and will soon arrive at Nightline’s main distribution centre in Birmingham where they will once again be scanned and sorted.

Day two – morning

Nightline has a major distribution network in the UK, with around 120 different depots, meaning customers’ packages arrive at their destination as soon as possible. The final stage of the parcel delivery process is carried out by another local van operator who will take the parcel from the local depot in the UK to the delivery address. On arrival a signature will be collected by the driver and details of the consignment’s arrival will be posted online.
