    prototype and sample courier FAQs

    How much cover is included?

    Up to £5,000 goods-in-transit as standard. Declare higher-value prototypes at booking so cover is confirmed in writing.

    Can you sign an NDA?

    Yes — many clients ask, and it is a normal part of setting up prototype work with us.

    Can the driver wait during the meeting?

    Yes, and take it straight back afterwards on the same job — usually cheaper than two separate bookings.
