About Us
XDP was formed in 1995 and has since grown to be the largest privately owned parcel and freight carrier in the UK, constantly building on our reputation for reliability and quality of service.
How we work
Sending your freight through the XDP network is a concise and simple process, which has been designed to allow full visibility from manifestation through to final mile delivery. Throughout the delivery process, your customer will receive regular communications, alongside the opportunity to sign from their own device and leave any delivery instructions.
Manifest Your Items
Manifest your freight using the XDP portal.
Prepare Your Freight for Collection
Your freight will be collected via your local depot at a time which is suited to your business requirements. Each parcel will then be scanned into the XDP Network.
Manual Sortation
Your freight will arrive and be scanned into one of our Central Sortation Hub’s, the item will then be manually sorted as per delivery region and will be dispatched to the delivery depot for final mile delivery to commence.
Routed For Delivery
The delivery depot will scan, route, and load all parcels to be delivered, with your customer receiving a two-hour time slot on the morning of delivery.
Delivered, Safe and Sound
With live driver tracking, and next stop notification prior to arrival, you will then be able to view full delivery confirmation, including photo evidence and ring-fenced geo-location via the XDP portal or app.
Our Depots
With an extensive national team covering our final-mile delivery depots, alongside a nationwide fleet of delivery partners, our reputation for customer focused logistics continues to go from strength to strength. Our customers are at the forefront of everything that we do, each having a dedicated team, available over email or phone, to assist with the day to day running.
XDP are one of the UK’s best kept logistics secrets, having traded for over 25 years as a specialist parcel and freight network, only a few are truly aware of XDP’s presence in the market. Formed in 1995 to facilitate the movement of high value electronic equipment, our model has since morphed into carrying a more diverse range of items.
XDP has specially fostered its relationship with some of the UK’s largest e-retailers offering an integral partnership to the customer journey. We have been able to fully immerse ourselves into the final mile solution, providing the customer a seamless delivery experience, extending the customer lifetime value.
