Freight Tips

• Do you need to get your goods there as fast as possible?
• Is cost the most important factor?  Shipping goods by rail is often a little slower than road transport but may save dollars.
• Do you need insurance?
• Do you need to track and trace your consignment through its journey?
• Do you have a large consignment that will take a day to load? If so we can arrange to have a company leave a trailer for loading for a pre-arranged period.
• Can your goods be loaded on pallets or do you need us to arrange for container hire?

• Goods are clean.  For example, engines and automotive parts should be free of oil.
• Goods are securely strapped on a pallet to eliminate movement during transport.
• Goods for the same destination are secured on the same pallet.
• A fork lift is available at both the pick up point and at the destination.
• Goods are ready for loading at any time during normal business hours on the day of pick up.
• The goods are clearly labelled showing the address of their destination.
• The labels are easy to read – A4 size is best.
