Screwfix speeds up delivery service to 20 minutes

Screwfix has updated its Sprint service to deliver products from store to trade sites in just 20 minutes.

The delivery service, which first launched in 2021, previously made deliveries in 60 minutes.

Since its launch, the service has delivered more than 2.7 million products across the UK.

Tradespeople are able to shop more than 8,500 products from the Screwfix App for a £4.99 delivery charge.

The move comes after the recent launch of Screwfix’s new ultra-compact City stores across the UK, with more than 480 stores now offering Sprint.

Screwfix says that the service now serves 58 per cent of the UK, with nearly 80,000 customers having used it since launch.

The most popular store locations for deliveries are across London.

“Time is money for our busy tradespeople," said Max Britten, Screwfix managing director. "Our customers tell us how important it is to stay on site and not lose hours in the day stuck in traffic.

"This year, over 15,000 customers have used Screwfix Sprint for the first time, and we know what a valuable service it has become for tradespeople. We’re continuing to expand the service further so that we can provide the ultimate convenience to the trade.”
