May saw the return of a little sense of normality - we’re not completely out of the woods yet, however, being allowed back inside pubs and restaurants has taken us that one step closer. Alongside this, events have been given the green light to resume as well - many sporting events have allowed restricted spectators and fans.
With that in mind, do you have an upcoming event? Or, are you looking to get something in the calendar for the future? If so, we know the level of detail and planning that goes into any event. So, allow Red Rocket Couriers to remove the headache of the transportation and equipment and goods.
In this post, we’ll cover everything you need to know about our events courier service. Plus, we’ll stress the importance of choosing a reliable and flexible courier that can meet your every need.

The Resumption of Events
The resumption of events has been received greatly by all. Football matches, business conferences, concerts, gigs and more have been welcomed back into society - albeit with reduced numbers and necessary restrictions in place. However, we don’t mind as it’s one step closer to complete normality, right?
Not only is it a plus for socialising and personal reasons, but businesses and charities can also now hold events to further their reach and greaten their impact. Whether it’s a fundraiser or a networking conference, we’re seeing events being held across the country for a multitude of reasons.
Are you looking to hold an event? If so, you’ll need to make sure that you pull out all the stops. After all, people haven’t attended events and functions for over a year, you’ll need to be out to impress to ensure that everything is spot on for the event to have the greatest impact.
You want people to be talking about your event long after it’s been held - but for only the right reasons though. Proper organisation, a brilliant set up and a fantastic all-round experience. Should anything go wrong, that’s what will stick with your attendees - that could jeopardise your whole event depending on the scale of the mishap.
That’s why everything must go to plan - of course, we know there’ll be a few minor speed bumps along the way (there always is).
The Role of a Courier for Events
To ensure that everything goes to plan, the role of a courier within an event is crucial. For things to run as they’re meant to, events organisers are reliant on equipment being in the right place, at the right time. Otherwise, they can’t set up as planned and then there’ll be a huge knock-on effect on the rest of the event.
For example, should you be late setting one part of the event up, you’ll have to delay setting the rest of the event up as planned and then you’ll be under increasing time pressure to get it sorted. Added stress when organising an event is not what you need, is it? Or, if things don’t arrive on time, the whole experience of the event will be hampered.
With that being said, it’s the role of a courier to transport goods and equipment to the event location on time and ensure that they’re received in optimal condition. Sounds simple, doesn’t it? However, events require a lot of equipment of all sizes to go ahead - therefore, a good courier needs to be attentive, flexible and understanding.
Quite simply, you could be reliant on the best events organiser there is but if they’ve instilled their trust in a poor courier - you can expect the worst, unfortunately.
Choosing a Courier Service You Can Trust
As we’ve just explained, you need to be sure that you can rely on the courier you choose so
that your event is a success. So, how can you be sure that you can trust your courier?
Flexibility
Does your courier have a wide-ranging fleet that can meet your every need? Some events will require the transportation of goods of all sizes, therefore, they need to have a fleet that can accommodate any needs and requirements. Otherwise, you can’t guarantee the condition of goods on arrival.
Not only does their fleet have to be flexible but their service too - a good courier will go above and beyond for their customers. No matter their request, they’ll try their best to meet it. For example, unusual pick up and arrival times should be met so that the event runs as smoothly as possible.
Vast Experience
Has the courier service that you’re looking to use worked on events before? If not, are you confident that they can get the job done well? The likelihood is that those that are vastly experienced will get the job done to a high, professional standard. Whereas, there could be a greater chance of mistakes if an inexperienced courier is on the job.
Vast experience usually means that they’re doing something right too - so, be sure to check out their reviews so that you can get a feel for their service level and business. We know that if we were organising an event, we’d feel a lot more comfortable instilling our trust into an experienced courier with great reviews and reputation to assist.
How Red Rocket Couriers Can Help
We Care
Caring should be a minimum requirement for an events courier, right? Unfortunately, that can’t be said for a lot of businesses within the industry - which is sad. However, our customers are at the centre of everything that we do. We care about the smooth running of your event as much as you do.
Which is what separates us from the rest. We have a duty of care to ensure that all jobs are treated with the same level of professionalism. That way, each of our customers is treated with the highest quality service level possible. We won’t let you down - and that’s a promise.
On-Time, Every Time
One of the most important factors of a top-level courier service is its commitment to timely collection and delivery windows. At Red Rocket Couriers, these are both something that we pride ourselves in. In fact, we can be with you within 60-minutes of first contact to ensure that your consignment is on the road and on the way.
Our same-day delivery service is mighty impressive - and incredibly popular with our customers. Of course, sometimes we may get held up in traffic (we’re not claiming that we’re superhuman and can predict congestion) - however, it’s our honesty and transparency in these situations that have helped gain our positive reputation.
All consignments are trackable and we provide real-time updates. That way, our customers are always kept up to date with realistic arrival times.

Quite simply, we’re fair! Some companies will charge a premium for lacklustre service. However, with Red Rocket Couriers, you can be certain that you’ll always be priced fairly and you’ll receive true value for money. Top-quality, professional service for a fair price, that’s all you can ask for, isn’t it?
