What our clients say...

“Had a requirement for a delivery of computer parts to a client and used Critical Shipments after a recommendation - arrived promptly for collection and received notification of delivery the next day. My client reported the package arrived safely and was handled with care during transit, not something that can be said for a lot of couriers these days. Would highly recommend, particularly for sensitive / expensive equipment that must arrive as it was sent” - AG
