The Client 

 

The client is a prominent project and production events management company based in Scotland and North East England, operating globally. They specialise in managing and delivering events, with a reputation for producing high-quality events that has made them a preferred partner for prestigious venues and clients. 

 

The Consignment 

 

Speedy Freight Newcastle works closely with our client to transport vital materials during peak season—their busiest time of year when they require additional courier support. 

Their consignments include a range of Halloween and Christmas decorations, including  candles, event lighting, and fibreglass statues. These materials are crucial to the client’s events, requiring careful handling and prompt delivery to ensure everything is delivered in pristine condition, ready for display, and on time for the events. 

 

The Solution 

 

Speedy Freight Newcastle provides a comprehensive logistics service for the client, covering both advanced bookings and last-minute deliveries. Our same day courier support is particularly important during peak periods, such as the lead-up to December when event setups are in full swing, and January, when events wrap up and materials need to be returned. 

 

Flexible Vehicle Options: We deploy a variety of vehicles depending on the size and nature of each consignment. While we’ve used everything from small vans to articulated lorries, the most common vehicles required are 18-tonne trucks and artics due to the volume and size of the items. This flexibility ensures that every delivery is handled efficiently and effectively. Additionally, we always offer a fully dedicated delivery service, ensuring our client’s fragile and unique items are handled with care throughout the journey, and never co-loaded. 

Reliable Delivery to Prestigious Locations: The client’s events take place at some of the UK’s most notable venues. We have successfully managed deliveries to locations such as Chester Zoo, Dunham Massey National Trust, Leeds Castle, Blenheim Palace, Wimpole Castle, and the Royal Botanic Gardens. Each venue requires precise timing and coordination due to the high-profile nature of these events. Our dedicated drivers are adept at navigating events and festival grounds and helping with off-loading at the event location to aid with the setup. 

Last-Minute and Emergency Support: Our relationship with the client also includes last-minute and emergency delivery services. Whether it’s a sudden need for additional decorations or an unexpected logistical challenge, our team is ready to respond quickly, ensuring that all aspects of the event are covered, even on short notice. Our 24-hour availability, including weekends and bank holidays, during which many of the events we deliver to take place, is key to maintaining the smooth operation of the client’s events, especially during their busiest seasons. 

Our ongoing collaboration with the client demonstrates the importance of a reliable logistics partner in the event management industry. By understanding their specific needs and delivering tailored transportation solutions, Speedy Freight Newcastle ensures that their events are consistently supported from start to finish. The client’s continued trust in us, particularly during high-stake deliveries to prestigious locations during busy periods, highlights our commitment to reliability, flexibility, and efficiency.
