The Importance of Reliable Medical Courier Services in London 

There is no question that when it comes to courier services in London, the word ‘reliable’ should be ingrained within any company’s operating ethos, as is the case with Distribusha. Reliable medical courier services in London can be harder to track down – after all, how can you tell from an advert or Google-sponsored listing that the company being promoted is reliable? You can’t. However, whenever you read anything about Distribusha, you will only find good things being said! 

So why is it so important that your medical courier service in London is reliable? Well, you have to ask yourself who would be the beneficiary of any medical courier service. 

The manufacturer and medical courier services 

It doesn’t matter if you are responsible for manufacturing some of the very best medical equipment if you can’t get it to your clients as and when they need it. When you stop to think about it, the supply chain for medical equipment and the need for a reliable healthcare logistics company are co-dependent. Beyond that, because we are talking about medical equipment, there is an inherent need for there to be reliable, first-class healthcare logistics solutions that help to meet the requirements of all those involved in the supply chain. 

The supplier and a medical courier delivery service 

Often there is a ‘middleman’ between the manufacturer and user of medical products, usually known as the supplier. The supplier is one of the most important individuals in any supply chain as they position themselves between the manufacturer and the consumer. When dealing with healthcare products, the supplier needs to have a reliable healthcare logistics provider working with them to ensure that needed products reach their destination at a time when most needed but the consumer, and not simply at a time that is convenient for the supplier. 

The consumer and healthcare logistics 

If you are at the end of the supply chain, the consumer, then you are wholly dependent on the supplier of medical products ensuring that their products are delivered to you either exactly when needed or that you are kept well supplied if your illness requires ongoing long-term treatment. As a consumer, you want to have confidence in that your needs will always be met and that while you deal with your illness, you will not have to worry about that treatment being affected by a lack of medical supplies though poor healthcare logistics solutions. 

What are reliable medical courier services? 

You might think that simply turning up when expected, delivering products on schedule is all that is required of a reliable medical courier company. Nothing could be further from the truth as there is so much more to a reliable healthcare logistics provider than simply delivering supplies on time. 

Medical courier companies are specialists in their field and, as such, have experienced and highly trained staff? Why? Because much of the work involves the installation/replacement of highly technical medical equipment. Healthcare logistics services require having the correct transport, such as a wagon with a tail lift and at Distribusha, for example, we provide up to three trained operatives for the delivery of specialist medical equipment. That delivery not only includes unpacking the new equipment, but its installation and checking that it is operating correctly. We also remove all packaging and will remove the original equipment if it is not fit for repair so that the material can be recycled.  

Medical courier delivery as and when needed 

For one of the most reliable medical courier services in London, you can have the choice of how you work with your chosen courier. 

To begin with, if you are a small start-up, you can work with a medical courier service such as Distribusha on an ‘as and when needed’ basis, whereby a delivery can still be arranged within 12 hours if local, or 24 hours if regional. As any business grows, so will logistics requirements, and medical courier services can be arranged on short-term and long-term contract bases to help reduce costs while also reducing the stress and strain associated with ad-hoc logistics arrangements.
