Chris Bennett offer professional cargo handling services to move goods from collection to delivery locations across the UK. We take pride in the level of care and attention we show on each and every delivery, so that you can put your trust in us.
Our fleet of specialist cargo haulage vehicles means that no matter what you need to transport, it’s likely that we have a truck or trailer perfect for the job. Our freight haulage vehicles include built-in lifting and loading equipment if none is available at your goods’ departure or destination.
In addition to these modern and fully liveried heavy haulage vehicles, we have a team of fully qualified and experienced drivers to navigate the delivery route professionally and adhere to any route restrictions and prearranged road closures.
We are fully FORS Gold accredited, allowing us to deliver to sites operating in London under the Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme. This gives you added peace of mind on the safety of our deliveries, and ensures that our vehicles are not turned away at the gates.
Why Choose Chris Bennett for Cargo Handling?
Chris Bennett have been delivering heavy cargo for over 40 years and have the proven track record you need to trust us with complex (and simple!) movements of all kinds of materials, in all shapes and sizes of shipments.
Our cargo haulage experts are not only experienced drivers, but are also fully trained and knowledgeable in areas like packing, loading and unloading freight, all of which ensure that your shipment:
- Stays in place in transit
- Stays safe at all times
- Arrives ready for import/export
We use in-house forklift trucks and HIAB cranes to load cargo onto our tautliners and other trailers, in most cases allowing imported goods to remain in the original container regardless of its size or weight.
Cargo for export can be unloaded at the port or dispatch point, ensuring there is no delay waiting for lifting equipment to become available at the delivery destination.
Heavy Freight Haulage Across the UK
Wherever your pick-up or delivery point is located in the UK, our cargo handling service can take care of the ‘final mile’ road haulage part of the journey.
Chris Bennett work with the biggest industries in the country, including oil and gas, power and utilities, and routinely transport heavy machinery between different locations.
To do this, we collaborate with local authorities and police to map out agreed routes for abnormal loads, arrange road closures and escort vehicles, and get your heavy cargo to its destination safely.
