Freight forwarding Edinburgh

Rapid Collection & Direct Road Transport across Europe

Speed wins in modern supply chains, which is why we guarantee vehicle collection within 60-120 minutes of your confirmed booking. Edinburgh's arterial road network makes this possible: the M8 (junctions 1-2), the M9 (junction 1), and the A720 City Bypass get our drivers past city congestion fast. Heading south, the A1 connects Edinburgh directly to England and onward to the Channel ports for European deliveries. Across the Central Belt, we reach Livingston, Dunfermline, Musselburgh and Dalkeith within the hour. When you need urgent sea freight, air freight and road transport, our direct delivery model means your goods travel straight from Edinburgh to their European destination — no hub-and-spoke reloading, no unnecessary handling.

Dedicated Vehicles for Time-Critical Freight

This direct approach is critical for next-day delivery requirements where every hour counts. By cutting out intermediate sorting facilities we keep damage risk minimal and maintain a 99.5% on-time delivery rate. For urgent automotive parts, medical supplies or legal documents that must clear international borders before morning, our overnight express service runs through the night — weekends and bank holidays included. Our network of 50,000+ vehicles across 38 countries means an Edinburgh manufacturer can dispatch goods late on a Friday and be confident they arrive at a European production facility by Monday morning. Whether you need an FTL (full truckload) heading south on the A1 or an LTL (less than truckload) groupage shipment via the M8 to Glasgow, our drivers know these routes inside out.

Transparent Pricing with No Hidden Fees

Budget certainty matters to every procurement team and logistics manager in Edinburgh. DAGO Express does away with the opaque pricing and surprise surcharges that plague the traditional freight forwarding and haulage sector. Our fleet scales to your cargo:

• Small Van (Caddy): Parcels, samples and documents — from £48.50
• Transit Van: Mid-sized consignments — from £68.50
• 3.5t Van with tail lift: Up to 10 euro pallets, 1.2-tonne payload, 480 × 210 × 210 cm — from £118.50

Whether you're booking an FTL export from Leith or a smaller LTL / groupage shipment to a distribution centre down south, our pricing stays competitive and straightforward. Book online and registered customers automatically get 5% off every order.

Framework Agreements for Regular Shippers

For Edinburgh businesses with consistent, high-volume shipping needs, we offer framework agreements that lock in long-term rates and priority vehicle allocation. This streamlines your contract logistics and cuts admin overhead significantly. Whether you're a growing tech firm near the university or an established manufacturer in Sighthill, you get premium pallet distribution and courier services without unpredictable costs. Our ISO 9001 certification guarantees that competitive pricing never comes at the expense of quality or safety.
