ADR Hazardous Cargo Haulage

Dangerous goods moved under ADR by trained drivers on correctly equipped vehicles.

A large share of our fleet is ADR-equipped to carry dangerous goods, with drivers holding current ADR vocational training certificates. If your container is placarded, we can move it.

Hazardous work is where hauliers get caught out. The vehicle has to be right, the driver has to be certificated, the paperwork has to be complete, and the receiving site has to be briefed. We handle all four as standard rather than as an exception.

What ADR compliance actually means here

ADR is the European agreement governing the international carriage of dangerous goods by road, and it applies to UK domestic movements too. It sets requirements for vehicle equipment, driver training, load segregation, placarding and documentation.

In practice that means our ADR vehicles carry the required fire extinguishers, spill kit and personal protective equipment, our drivers hold in-date ADR certificates for the classes they carry, and every movement is accompanied by a correct dangerous goods note.

Working with your DGSA

Most shippers moving regular hazardous volume have a Dangerous Goods Safety Adviser. We are used to working to their instructions on classification, packing group and segregation, and we would rather have that conversation before the vehicle is booked than at the gate.

Common questions

Which ADR classes can you carry?
Our drivers hold current ADR vocational training certificates and our vehicles are equipped to the relevant standard. Contact our operations team with your UN number and packing group and we will confirm whether we can carry it.
Do you provide the dangerous goods documentation?
The shipper is responsible for classification and for supplying the dangerous goods note. We check it before loading and carry it with the vehicle, and we will flag anything that looks incorrect before we move.
Can you collect hazardous containers from Felixstowe?
Yes. Felixstowe is our closest port and the origin of most of our hazardous work.
