Welcome to the    Website !

Alpha Couriers in Guildford is a one man company - Anthony Drapos aged 40 (what already?!) That's me! I started my driving/delivering career as a despatch rider aged 17 on a motorcycle this was for 7 years! Travelling to all parts of the UK- taking urgent, important documents to prestigious places and quite often pace makers to hospital beds as well - rain or shine!

During an unfortunate loss of my driving license (speed limit? what's that? well I was only a nipper! ) I worked as a post man for 6 months-again 2 wheel delivering-but at a more sedate speed!

Regaining my license (hooray!) , a purchase of a 3 wheeled Robin Reliant(?!) was (at the time) luxury! But this did not impress my boss at the courier firm (or liked cornering) so after this I decided a (4 wheel) van was more healthy for my driving license and safer for my body!

But first I had to pass the car driving test! My first mini van was too small so I started saving my pennies (more cold & wet miles on the bike) for a Ford escort van. What a luxury- warmth, music and wages!

Another escort van later and after driving for a printing firm for 18 months (in their van) I decided to gain experience in small truck driving through an agency - much learned !

With all my attained experience I decided that customers needed a reliable, honest, punctual, caring and cost effective type of delivery system- and here I set out on my own with a handful of like-minded friends (to help out with any overload of work) to do just that.

Later I purchased my first Mercedes Sprinter van and never regretted it - only the traffic jams! (Click on UK flag on "Services" page to see jam cams of London)

So after reading this brief history of who, why and how I hope you feel you can put me to the test with your deliveries. You will not be disapointed ! Enjoy my (homemade) Website!

Thank you - Anthony
