Event and exhibition transport in London and nationwide
Get your event equipment, exhibition materials and printed graphics where they need to be. 1st Call Courier provides transport for organisers, exhibitors, production teams and suppliers across London, the surrounding areas and the UK.
From a single urgent delivery to collections before and after an event, tell us your schedule and load requirements. We will help plan the transport around your venue’s access arrangements and agreed delivery times.
Transport for the build, the show and the return journey
- Exhibition materials: display stands, signage, printed graphics and promotional items.
- AV and production equipment: sound, lighting and other equipment, with vehicle choice based on the size and weight of your load.
- Event supplies: boxed goods, merchandise and materials for conferences, launches and live events.
- Urgent deliveries: replacement items, missing components and last-minute supplies, subject to availability.
- Collections after the event: return transport to your premises, supplier or next agreed destination.

Plan around your venue’s delivery window
Event deliveries often involve loading bays, vehicle height limits, booking references and short access slots. Share these details when requesting your quote so we can plan the right vehicle and arrival arrangements.
Please also confirm who will be available to load and unload, whether a tail-lift is needed, and any waiting time you expect during the build or breakdown. Live tracking and proof of delivery help you keep track of the movement.
Local coverage with nationwide availability
Our key areas include Hemel Hempstead, Leighton Buzzard and Ampthill. We have a strong presence in London and the surrounding areas, with nationwide availability for event and exhibition movements.
We welcome enquiries from every sector. Alongside event transport, our same-day courier services cover documents, parcels, pallets and larger business deliveries. If your event has sustainability requirements, ask about electric vehicle availability for your route and load.
What we need for your quote
Send us the collection and delivery postcodes, event date, required time slots, and a description of the goods with dimensions and weight. Include venue access instructions, loading contacts and details of any return collection.
If arrangements are still being finalised, tell us what is confirmed and what may change. This helps us discuss suitable transport before the event gets under way.
