Southampton Central 80min to London Waterloo. Southampton Airport 4mi from city centre. — give drivers fast access to the regional road network.

Local knowledge for Southampton collections: Southampton's cruise terminal at the Western Docks generates surges in courier demand during cruise season (April to October), with document and supply deliveries to ships. The M3 is the key route to London but suffers heavy congestion near Winchester. Hauly drivers use the A33 to bypass M3 delays and the Itchen Bridge for cross-river access to Woolston.
The estimated fuel cost for this route is £18 (diesel van at ~30mpg, £1.55/L; Hauly prices include a live fuel adjustment), and the journey produces approximately 30 kg of CO₂. Because Hauly uses dedicated vehicles — your item is the only delivery in the van — there are no extra miles from depot detours or multi-drop routes, making this a more efficient option than parcel networks for same-day delivery.
