How It Works – Local Postcode Directory

Printed directories once had their charm but important listings were often buried and big budget adverts dominated.

That is why we created a fair and modern postcode based alternative designed to serve homeowners, trades people and local businesses equally within their local community.

Local Postcode Directory currently supports:

  1. Malvern WR13 and WR14
  2. Worcester WR1 to WR8

Homeowners connect only with trades and businesses within their postcode area, meaning faster responses and more local
accountability – local jobs for local people.

  1. Enter your postcode and select the service you need.
  2. A map will display the nearest trusted trade or business giving those closest to you a fair chance to appear at the top.
  3. You can choose up to three professionals to request quotes from.
  4. All initial communication takes place via our secure built in messaging portal. No need to hand over your contact details upfront.

Businesses can sign up for free for the basic package or for just £7.50 a week get a premium listing with all the below features.

For just £7.50 a week you receive:-

  2. Map visibility based on your postcode area so locals find you first.
  3. Blog mentions, spotlight features and weekly rotation on social media.
  4. No lead fees, no contracts and the ability to cancel at anytime.
