Coverage in CB — Cambridge Postcodes
The CB postcode area spans Cambridge city centre and extends across surrounding villages including Trumpington, Grantchester, Toft, Bottisham, and Waterbeach. Our drivers operate across all CB postcodes — CB1 through CB25 — with particular strength in the biotech and research hotspots along the A10 near Cambridge Science Park and the Babraham Institute south of the city. We're equally familiar with Milton Road (A6), the M11 corridor, and the A14 towards Newmarket, so collection and delivery across the entire postcode area is rapid and reliable.
Local Businesses We Serve in Cambridge
Cambridge's economy spans pharmaceuticals, software development, life sciences, and education. We work with:
- Biotech and pharmaceutical firms — Abingdon Health, GSK, and smaller research companies requiring temperature-controlled delivery and MHRA-compliant handling
- Tech and software businesses — urgent document delivery, hardware logistics, and international shipments from Heathrow on same-day notice

- Retail and e-commerce — next-day and same-day parcel delivery across CB and into London, the Midlands, and beyond
Our Service Across the CB Postcode Area
We operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week with dedicated dispatch teams. Average collection time in CB is 42 minutes from booking to vehicle arrival. Every shipment is GPS tracked in real time, so you can monitor progress from collection to delivery. Our fleet includes standard vans for parcels, insulated vehicles for pharmaceutical/temperature-controlled items, and larger vehicles for furniture and pallets. All vans are ULEZ-compliant, meaning they're permitted in London and all future CAZ schemes — important if your Cambridge business ships to or through urban centres.

The science parks along the A10 are literally minutes from our closest collection points — we can get anywhere in CB within an hour." — Taras, Founder, T&C Logistics
