DX puts Posties on the beat north of the border

DX has introduced a team of ‘postmen’ on the streets of Edinburgh and Glasgow. Initially, the DX ‘walkers’ will sort and deliver publications and important postal mail to city centre postcodes including EH2, EH3, G1 and G2.

DX has also just made its most important investment in Scotland to date, in order to cope with the ongoing increase in its business in Scotland and to accommodate plans for future growth. The company which opened a new postal facility at Rutland Square, Edinburgh, this summer has announced the opening of a GBP 1m state-of-the-art national hub and customer service centre in Livingston, capable of sorting up to 48,000 mail items per hour.

The company is best known for its Document Exchange service, a UK-wide pre 9 am delivery network for mail and parcels which presently boasts over 2,000 clients in Scotland alone – including leading law firms Dundas and Wilson and Gillespie MacAndrew. In addition, DX offers a range of alternative services including same day delivery between Glasgow and Edinburgh, SecureDX – a low cost alternative to Royal Mail Special Delivery* for important items requiring a signature – a door-to-door parcels services and regular deliveries of mail to the Highlands and islands. Yet, it believes the new Livingston hub will act to further improve the speed and accuracy of its existing services.

Says CEO James Greenbury “We’ve been delivering mail on behalf of our Scottish and UK-wide customers for over 30 years but introducing new services and a new infrastructure including walkers and our new Livingston hub means that Scottish businesses can look at a real, cost-effective alternative to Royal Mail for their mail and parcels requirements .”
