The Client
Speedy Freight Bolton were approached by one of the country’s largest bridge and railway manufacturers looking for a same day Bolton courier, to become their logistics partners in moving equipment, including materials and finished products and the movement of oversized consignments. The client required anything from moving a specific and single piece of equipment to moving entire bridge panels - a truly diverse set of requirements.
The Challenges
In order to provide appropriate courier services, which would be sufficient for this varied set of logistics needs, it was vital that Speedy Freight had access to a large fleet of vehicles with sufficient transportation room to move these oversized or abnormally-sized items. In addition, it was vital that the chosen courier had a solid relationship with local authorities, in order to move the oversized goods with specialist vehicles and specialist teams. Moving oversized loads often requires a working relationship with local governing bodies and police, which Speedy Freight Bolton, along with all our branches, is proud to have.
The Consignment
Speedy Freight Bolton provided specialist large movement services for the oversized consignments, as required by our client. These solutions ranged from entire bridge panels, moved with specialist vehicles to the very outer villages in Northern Scotland, to moving single pieces of equipment necessary for the construction of a railway down to London. Able to move anything in the country to the opposite end of the UK in a matter of hours, it’s clear to see why Speedy Freight is our clients’ first choice when it comes to choosing a courier for the movement of oversized consignments.
