What we carry

Packaged dangerous goods across all nine ADR classes. Flammable liquids like paints, inks, resins and solvents, gases in cylinders, corrosives, toxic substances, oxidisers, flammable solids, and lithium batteries and other Class 9 goods. Class 1 explosives and Class 7 radioactive are specialist work and have their own pages. A single box or a full van load up to 1,050 kg, on a dedicated vehicle either way. If you are not sure what your goods are classed as, tell us what you have and we will confirm before you commit to anything.

Why dangerous goods are different

Dangerous goods cannot just go in a parcel network. Above the small load thresholds ADR applies in full: a driver holding an ADR certificate, an equipped vehicle with orange plates front and rear, and the correct transport documentation travelling with the load. Networks also mean depots, and every depot is another set of hands on your goods. We run every job dedicated and direct, one ADR-certified driver, one vehicle, no other freight, and your goods never sit in a depot or on a vehicle overnight.

What happens when you call

Phones answered 24/7, 365 days a year. We confirm the goods and quantities against your Dangerous Goods Note, agree timings, and give you a straight answer on price. Collection runs direct to delivery, no other freight on board. Our driver verifies the packaging, labelling and transport documentation on arrival, and the load travels secured and GPS tracked to the delivery point. You get a signed delivery note.

Same-day with us means delivered today. The best same-day jobs are booked the day before: vehicle allocated, paperwork checked overnight, collection first thing. Same dedicated vehicle, same service, same price. And when every minute counts, ring us and book it there and then.

The compliance behind it

All drivers hold ADR driver training certificates covering all nine classes, including the stand-alone Class 1 and Class 7 courses. A Dangerous Goods Safety Adviser is appointed under ADR Chapter 1.8.3, with an annual report and an independent dangerous goods safety audit on file. For Class 7 radioactive work we are registered with the HSE under the Ionising Radiations Regulations 2017, with a Radiation Protection Adviser appointed. FORS Champion accredited and an RHA member. All vehicles live GPS tracked, collection to delivery. DfT Inspected: Fully Compliant. Every compliance claim on this page is backed by certificates on file, available on request.

Chemical manufacturers and distributors, coatings, inks and adhesives firms, gas suppliers, laboratories and research facilities, battery and electronics companies, pharmaceutical and healthcare businesses, freight forwarders moving dangerous goods, and other couriers passing on dangerous goods work.
