Parcelhero has launched instant online pricing for air pallet freight, replacing a 24 to 48-hour manual quoting process that has long been standard across the industry.

With this new feature, door-to-door pallet shipping quotes can now be generated in seconds, allowing businesses to compare prices, complete bookings and track shipments online – as easily as sending a parcel.

At £923.3bn, the UK’s total export results for 2025 seem healthy at first glance, representing a 3.5% increase over 2024. But UK goods exports were only £377.5bn, down -2.2%. That leaves services exports doing a lot of the heavy lifting.
