Agriculture haulage needs specialist knowledge, experience and dedicated farm machinery haulage vehicles to get large items to their destination safely. Chris Bennett (Heavy Haulage) Ltd are experts in the transport of agricultural machinery in the UK, with deliveries handled nationwide.
Our fleet includes a number of vehicles suitable for very large agricultural machinery transport, including 150-tonne low loaders, beavertail trucks, flatbeds and self-loading HIABs.
We have fully trained and professional drivers who will not only get your consignment to its destination safely, but will also load and unload your farm vehicle or machinery with all the care and attention you would expect.
Size of the UK Agricultural Sector
Defra statistics show that in 2022, the UK agricultural sector was valued at nearly £14 billion, equivalent to 60p in every £100 of value generated by the UK economy. The sector grew 15% in 2021-22 alone, an increase of £1.8 billion.
With agricultural equipment costing hundreds of thousands of pounds, it’s essential for the transport of agricultural machinery to be carried out to the highest standards, using heavy haulage vehicles suitable for the job.
Chris Bennett’s fleet and drivers can offer this high standard of farm machinery haulage, giving you peace of mind that your valuable hardware will be handled with care from the moment of pickup until it is dropped off at its destination.
