Chris Bennett (Heavy Haulage) Ltd’s experience in construction equipment transport means we are your first choice for construction industry haulage nationwide.
Our specialised fleet of articulated flatbeds and low loaders means we are able to offer heavy haulage for construction materials, equipment, and even abnormal loads like prefabricated buildings.
Fully trained and uniformed drivers, a fleet of escort vehicles and support to liaise with police and local authorities on abnormal load movements all means a stress-free approach to construction transport for clients across the UK.
Capitalising on UK Construction
The UK’s diverse construction industry generated nearly £133 billion in 2022, a record high according to the ONS, and up nearly 16% since the previous year.
UK construction covers everything from residential and commercial new-builds to industrial and infrastructure projects, and heavy machinery is used throughout the industry.
Our construction equipment transport services get that machinery to where it is needed, even finding safe routes to remote locations where large-scale new-build and infrastructure projects may be in their early stages.
A Great British Industry
UK construction businesses are based on the length and breadth of the country. About a third are in London (17%) and the South East (16.7%), with a further 12.6% in the East.
But regions outside of the South East are also home to a good number of construction firms:
- South West: 9.4%
- North West: 9.3%
- West Midlands: 8.0%
- Yorkshire & Humber: 7.3%
- East Midlands: 7.1%
- Scotland: 5.9%
- Wales: 3.9%
- North East: 2.7%
Chris Bennett’s construction equipment transport services operate nationwide, with expertise in city centre deliveries and rural routes alike.
Construction Transport in London
We have a proven track record providing haulage for construction projects in London, with our liveried fleet delivering equipment to some of the capital’s highest-profile developments.
Chris Bennett provided haulage assistance on new stadiums for Tottenham Hotspur (and in the North West for Everton) as well as road haulage services to HS2 sites and many others in and around London.
We are proud to hold FORS Gold accreditation, permitting us under the Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme to deliver to construction sites in London where the highest operational and safety standards are in place.
Some construction sites operate a zero-tolerance policy on FORS-compliant deliveries. Chris Bennett’s accredited fleet means your goods and equipment should never be turned away at the gate.
