Trade Account FAQs
How quickly can an account be approved?▼
Most accounts are reviewed within one business day. If a standard credit check passes (or you opt for an opening deposit), accounts are typically live within 48 hours of submission.
Can you handle our growth?▼
Yes. Work is completed through our UK network of professional owner-drivers, so capacity can scale for peak weeks without you committing to fixed fleet costs. Regular capacity can be agreed in writing for contracted work.
Can you support nationwide deliveries?▼
Yes. We run same-day direct vans UK-wide and offer recurring scheduled runs on fixed lanes. There are no pallet-network hubs in the middle — your goods go direct from A to B.
Can you provide two-man and room-of-choice services?▼
Two-person crews and room-of-choice delivery can be arranged on request and are confirmed at quotation.
Can you support regular routes?▼
Yes. Daily, weekly or fixed-day runs (for example Mon/Wed/Fri) can be priced as recurring work. Vehicle and driver allocation is confirmed for each run.
What insurance cover do account clients have?▼
Drivers carry a minimum of £5,000 goods-in-transit cover. £1m public liability cover is in place. Higher goods-in-transit cover can be arranged before collection for high-value loads. Taylors' own contractual liability is set out in our terms.
