ADR Distribution

Hazardous Goods, Moved Properly

ADR-approved pallet distribution. Trained drivers, compliant documentation, and the same next-day transit times as everything else we carry.

ADR Distribution

We are a general haulier, not a specialist chemical carrier, and we would rather tell you that up front than find out at the collection point.


What that means in practice is that Limited Quantities go on either our trusted pallet network or our own vehicles with our own ADR qualified drivers. For larger consignments we use the Hazchem pallet network or specialist partners who carry the volumes and classes we do not.


Either way you get a straight answer before you book. Send us the UN number, class and packing group and we will tell you whether it is a yes, and which route it takes.

What Makes Our ADR Distribution Different.

Compliant hazardous distribution on standard transit times, with the paperwork checked before your load leaves the yard.

Any Questions?

We've tried to answer some questions in our FAQ.

Which ADR classes do you carry?

Classes 1.4S (Limited), 2, 3, 4, 5.1, 5.2, 6.1, 8 and 9. Anything outside those, including explosives beyond 1.4S Limited and radioactive material, is not something we handle.

What is the difference between LQ and larger consignments?

Limited Quantities are smaller packaged goods that fall under reduced ADR requirements, and we carry those on our own fleet with our own qualified drivers. Larger hazardous consignments go through the Hazchem pallet network or a specialist partner, since those movements need capability beyond what a general haulier holds.

Are your drivers ADR trained?

Yes. The drivers carrying LQ work hold current ADR qualifications for the classes involved.

What information do you need from me?

UN number, proper shipping name, class, packing group and quantity, plus correctly labelled and packaged goods with the right transport documentation. Send it with the enquiry and we will confirm before anything is booked.

Can hazardous and non-hazardous goods travel together?

Usually yes, subject to the segregation rules for the classes involved. Send us the full manifest and we will tell you what can go together and what needs splitting.

How We Work

Modern systems, fewer and friendlier miles, better work environments. We plan every load for efficiency, invest in a lower-emission fleet, and treat open and honest communication as the reason customers stay with us.
