Where do Gophr's Edinburgh couriers deliver to?
Edinburgh is our Scotland hub, from the city centre across the Old Town, New Town, Leith, Morningside, Bruntsfield and Stockbridge, and out to Musselburgh, Dalkeith and South Queensferry. We also run same-day national routes from Edinburgh to every major UK city, with airport runs to Edinburgh Airport (8 miles west of the city centre) and Glasgow Airport. Find out more about the locations we deliver to across the UK.
Do Gophr couriers know Edinburgh and the local building estate?
Yes. Our Edinburgh couriers are familiar with the legal offices around George Street and the Royal Mile, the financial services estate around St Andrew Square and Lothian Road, the Princes Street retail core, and the building access protocols across the EH1 city centre and the Edinburgh BioQuarter at Little France. When you book, give us the building name, floor number, reception contact and any visitor instructions, and the courier will follow them at both collection and drop-off. For controlled-access lobbies we’ll wait in the visitor zone and won’t go anywhere unaccompanied. (Note: Gophr’s live tracking link. Once your delivery is booked, you’ll receive a real-time tracking link by email or SMS, allowing you to follow your courier’s progress from collection to drop-off.
What are Gophr's same-day operating hours in Edinburgh?
Gophr’s Edinburgh same day courier service runs 7 days a week from 5am to midnight. Use the slider on the booking page to set a ‘pick up anytime after’ and ‘deliver before’ timeslot – this will set out the timeframe for your delivery and also determine if the delivery is a standard, high priority or rush delivery. We primarily offer a same day delivery service, which means any timeframes set on the delivery booking app will need to be within the same day!
If you need a delivery outside of normal operating hours (5am to midnight) or have a very specific timeframe, please reach out to our team directly and let us know your requirements. We’ll be happy to help.
