Toolstation introduces rapid delivery service
Posted: Friday, November 8th, 2024
Toolstation, part of Travis Perkins and a supplier of tools, accessories and building supplies, has launched a new rapid same-day delivery service with TradeKart. This will deliver orders directly to sites, with the first phase rolling out in November. Plumbers, builders, electricians and decorators can access over 10,000 products for delivery in as little as one hour. The service supports tradespeople and DIYers who need access to materials while still on site or completing a job. It helps them save time and avoid the hassle of leaving a site, which can cause job delays. It launched after Toolstation research found that 28% of tradespeople said a same-day delivery service would improve their business. The research also found that the average tradesperson in the UK currently loses over three hours a week collecting materials from stores; a huge cost and time burden. The new delivery service will give tradespeople access to essential tools and supplies, so they are ready to handle any unexpected situation. The rapid service will initially be available at 44 Toolstation stores across the UK, covering London, Manchester, Birmingham, Liverpool, Glasgow and Edinburgh, before being rolled out across Toolstation’s store network. Customers can check if the service is available in their area by checking their delivery postcode at www.tradekart.com.
