With London Fashion Week (LFW) underway, if you’ve ever wondered how they get high-value, intricate, and far-out designs from a designer’s studio to the catwalk, then you may want to learn more about a garment on hanger courier service!
What is a Garment on Hanger (GOH) Courier Service?
A garment on hanger courier service is one of the offerings from courier services that offer fashion distribution.
As its name suggests, when it comes to a garment on hanger service, it means that garments are picked up and transported on hangers and stored on racks during transportation.
Speedy Freight have specialist vehicles with built-in racks to transport garments, from luxury high-fashion goods to rare and delicate garments.
This type of service is ideal for anyone operating within the fashion industry, whether you’re a supplier delivering to a shop, a fashion house delivering garments to a fashion show, or moving stock from one shop to another.
Who Should Use a Garment on Hanger (GOH) Courier Service?
Every company’s needs are different, and whether you need something delivered from one of your fashion studios to another, sample garments delivered to a photoshoot, valuable designer pieces shipped to a fashion show, or anything in between—you may benefit from a garment on hanger courier service.
It is the safest way to transport garments from A to B and ensures the proper storage and handling of your clothing—important in an industry where garments can be made from a range of sensitive materials that require special care and handling throughout their journey.
From delicate lace to heavy beadwork, fragile silk, and moisture-sensitive fabrics like suede, you want to ensure your garments are being carefully handled and stored during transport. Additionally, many garments can lose their shape and fabrics can be stretched out from improper storage.
What are the Benefits of a Garment on Hanger Courier Service?

The best way to store your garments during transport is using a garment on hanger courier service.
-
Wrinkle-Free Delivery: The option of garment transportation using GOH enables you to receive wrinkle-free clothing with either no or minimal re-work required after your goods arrive.
