How your order is processed at Nightline Delivers

Overview

Clients needing a reliable and trustworthy next day delivery service between the Republic of Ireland and Great Britain should get in touch with Nightline. Companies that send packages on a daily basis can also take advantage of Nightline’s Smartship® barcode service, which allows them to track their items at every stage.

Day one – the collection:

To start with, a local van operator will arrive at the client’s house or place of work and collect the parcel. Once the driver has finished his rounds he will take the items to Nightline’s regional depot where packages are sorted according to destination and prepared for the rest of the journey.

Day one – evening:

Items are scanned before they leave the regional depot to keep customers updated on their progress. Once safely stored on board trucks, they travel by road to Nightline’s national distribution centre, located near Dublin Airport. After being scanned once again, preparations are made to have them sent on to mainland Britain.

Day two – early morning:

The parcels leave the central depot after being sorted and loaded onto trucks. After arriving in the Britain, they will be sent to Nightline’s Birmingham depot and then forwarded on to one of 120 local centres across England, Wales and Scotland.

Day two – morning:

Before long a local courier will arrive at the depot to take the parcels on the final stage of their journey. They are sorted and scanned for the final time before reaching their destination. Once a parcel is handed over, the driver will get a signature from the recipient which acts as proof of delivery. The Smartship® technology once again allows the customer to keep an eye on the package’s progress and they will be able to see through the internet that their parcel delivery to the UK has gone smoothly and the package has been signed for.
