General Haulage
Our fleet of 80 flat bed trailers are ideally suited to carry a variety of goods. The standard measurements of our trailers are 13.6m in length, 2.5m in width and 1.4 metres in height. However we are also experienced in delivering abnormal loads (please see other section of website).
We are able to carry a payload of up to 28,000kg or 28 tonnes. Furthermore we operate a number of pin trailers and all trailers are equipped with a full set of sheets to ensure load can be weather-proofed to protect sensitive material such as chipboard or plyboard.
Some of the more common materials we deliver on a regular basis can be found here
Shipping Routes
Our location in Kent is ideally suited for our operation as we import goods from Belgium, Holland and Northern France via the shipping routes of Zeebrugge/Rotterdam into Purfleet/Tilbury docks for deliveries to the South of England, Wales and the Midlands.
For deliveries to the North of England and Scotland we utilise the ports of Hull, Immingham and Teesport to enable us to continue to provide competitive quotes.
We have established a strong partnership with Lister International, our sister company who have operations based in Dover and Hull to compliment our business.
Our operating centre in the South East puts us on the doorstep for deliveries into and around London and our FORS Silver accreditation ensures we are fully compliant.
