As a Hazchem Network member, we operate within recognised industry frameworks, ensuring every shipment is traceable, documented, and managed to the highest level of care. From flammable liquids and solids to toxic, corrosive, and miscellaneous hazardous goods, our team is trained and experienced in handling a wide variety of ADR-classified freight.
We transport regulated palletised hazardous goods, as well as complementary non-hazardous products, providing flexible solutions for businesses of all sizes. Every delivery is executed with strict adherence to ADR regulations, Hazchem guidelines, and internal safety procedures, giving you full confidence that your goods will arrive safely and audit-ready. Being a family-run, hands-on logistics provider, we offer direct communication, accountability, and personal service at every step — so you can speak directly to the team managing your freight, not get lost in a large, impersonal network.
Our services cover a broad range of ADR classes, including 1.4S, 2, 3, 4, 5.1, 5.2, 6.1, 8, and 9, ensuring we can safely handle most hazardous goods transported within the UK.
