About Portway

A courier that tells you where it is before you have to ask

We move parcels door to door across 19 countries. What we sell is not the van — everyone has a van — it is knowing, at every hour of the journey, exactly where a thing is and who is holding it.

19Countries priced

Every one with a published rate and a transit time

3Depots we own

London, Frankfurt, Rotterdam — not agents

Since 2019, same company, same name

Why we publish the prices

Most couriers quote. A quote is a way of finding out what you will pay rather than what it costs, and it is why the same parcel gets three different figures on three different days.

We publish 68 price bands and charge the one your shipment falls into after we have weighed it. When the weight is more than you said, the band moves and we say so before we move the parcel. That is the whole pricing policy.

When it goes wrong

Lost

Insured to $100 as standard, more if you declared it. Paid within 10 working days of the claim.

Damaged

Photograph it before you unpack further. We collect the packaging as evidence.

Late

Express and Standard carry a transit promise. Miss it and the shipping is refunded.
