What we need from you
A current operator licence, goods-in-transit cover, motor insurance, and public and employers liability cover — with the certificates to evidence each. Our sub-contractor pack sets goods-in-transit cover at a minimum of £6,500 per tonne. The operations team will confirm the full requirements when you get in touch.
Container equipment — skeletals, sliding chassis or specialist trailers. Tell us what you run and where you are based.
We are a family-run firm and we treat sub-contractors the way we would want to be treated on someone else’s traffic. Sub-contracting with us is an opportunity to build a long-standing, profitable relationship rather than to pick up the odd load.

Register your interest.
Tell the transport office what you run and where you work. If there is a fit, they will come back to you with the full requirements and onboarding pack.
This is an initial enquiry, not the full compliance application. Documents and commercial details will be requested separately after the first conversation.
