Who Can Deliver Medical Equipment?

It’s not every day of the week that you may need some medical equipment moving, so where do you turn when you need to find a company who can perform local medical equipment deliveries? The answer may not be immediately obvious if this is the first time you have found yourself needing a specialist medical courier.

Finding a local medical equipment delivery service

By its very nature, medical equipment isn’t an every-day item type that your general national courier service is interested in delivering. Often the equipment can be heavy and or/bulky and requires a two-person team to collect it and deliver it. Most national couriers hire employees who work on their own, and often they use their own cars rather than have a van.

More to the point, the majority of medical equipment requires a considerable amount of care and skill to deliver and install – how may courier services do you know who offer a collect and deliver medical equipment service? Well at least you now know of one!

The next question you probably want answering is “What makes Distribusha different as a specialist medical equipment courier?”

Distribusha – the flexible and adaptable medical equipment courier offering a bespoke service

Medical equipment comes in all shapes and sizes, and on many occasions it is not simply a case of collecting and delivering it to a given address. Here at Distribusha we have become specialists in medical equipment delivery and fitting as it is often that the recipient requires the equipment placed in situ and, if possible immediately operational/functional. Because our couriers are highly experienced, that have a comprehensive knowledge when it comes to the installation of medical equipment, though it has to be said that because of the highly technical nature of some medical equipment, installation of certain equipment has to be carried out by a qualified technician. Past experience means that on many occasions, the equipment simply requires precision installation and connecting the plug to an electric socket is all that is required for it to become operational.

Because we have a fleet of different vans and trucks, we can deliver anything from spare parts to whole machines on a same-day medical equipment courier service. Thanks to having courier teams of up to three individuals and trucks which have hydraulic tail lifts, you would be surprised what we can safely deliver for you, as you will see below…

Distribusha – an established local and national medical equipment courier

There are four characteristics that most medical equipment has, and that is that it is often bulky, heavy, valuable, and requires specialist knowledge to install.

Examples of medical equipment that Distribusha provides specialist courier services for and makes us the best choice for a medical equipment courier include:

• Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) scanners

• Dental, maxillofacial and ENT imaging systems

• Aesthetic & cosmetic laser systems

• Hair removal, tattoo removal, skin resurfacing, vascular and pigmentation lasers

• Fat treatment & body contouring laser systems

• Laser lipolysis, fat reduction and non-invasive body contouring devices

• Facial and skin scanning & mapping systems

• 3-D facial scanners, skin analysis, imaging and diagnostic platforms

Distribusha – A medical courier working with hospitals on a tight schedule

Medical equipment is notoriously expensive, and hospital budgets are incredibly tight. As a consequence, many regional hospitals will share medical equipment like specialist scanners. Consequently, you can have, for example, four hospitals, so the first can use the scanner for two weeks, and then it is transferred to a second hospital, for two weeks, and so on… Here at Distribusha we work with both the NHS and privately funded hospitals on a scheduled medical equipment courier basis where we perform the removal, transfer and re-installation of the equipment on an ongoing basis.

Medical equipment logistics

Medical equipment logistics is a term that you may have seen and wondered what it really means. In the most simple of terms, logistics means moving medical equipment from A to B via any appropriate means. The logistics means the actual physical side of moving it, whether it is collecting it from the distributor, manufacturer or the person selling it, perhaps second hand, and delivering it to you, who is presumably the user.

Medical equipment logistics provides solutions when there is a need for them. As an example, you may have seen some medical equipment for sale from a business that is closing down, thought the price looked very reasonable, but you were then left wondering how to transport it once you had bought it.

Medical bed delivery to medical lab equipment delivery

It doesn’t have to be highly technical or bulky medical equipment we deliver. It may be that you have the option to recuperate at home after a stay in hospital, but need a hospital bed installed. Here at Distribusha we know how to co-ordinate with the NHS and also suppliers of medical beds, and we can ensure your bed has been delivered and installed ready for the welcome return home.

So, if you are looking for the best choice for a medical equipment courier, a local medical equipment courier, or a collect-and-deliver medical courier service, you don’t need to look further than Distribusha.
