Logistics and Courier services
If you need to transport anything dangerous for your business, including hazardous substances, you need an ADR courier that’s right for the job.
Not all couriers have the knowledge, skillset, and necessary certifications to transport dangerous goods. At ENS Logistics, our drivers are among the best in the UK, fully prepared to support even the most complex shipments.
In order to transport dangerous goods by road, you must be familiar with, and follow, the correct laws and procedures.
Most of these laws are set in stone by the ADR (Accord Dangereux Routier), which is a European agreement that is followed here in the UK. These strict regulations determine what can be transported, how these goods should be transported, and what measures need to be put in place to ensure the safety of the driver and everyone else on the road around them.
There are 9 classes of dangerous goods, all of which have their own guidelines attached. As you can imagine, following these guidelines isn’t easy, and any errors or misinterpretations can be both costly and dangerous. Business owners need to be aware of these rules and regulations in order to stay compliant and keep their reputation in intact.
That’s why it’s vital that, if you need to transport dangerous goods or substances, you call in a certified dangerous goods courier you can trust.
As mentioned, there are 9 classes of ADR goods. These are:
All of these substances need to be transported carefully and in the correct manner. If you try to transport any class of dangerous item without the appropriate certification or in a way that is not recommended, you could be fined or face more serious punishment. Even if it is the courier that didn’t follow the law, it will still have a knock-on effect that could harm your reputation.
Many businesses need to transport dangerous goods across the country. This could be for engineering work, emergencies, or simply to get it in place for the next stage of production. If this is a regular occurrence for your business, you quickly learn what should be done, and will usually have one or two reliable couriers that you use.
However, if you are transporting dangerous goods for the first time, you might be tripped up by the legislation, or the courier you choose may take the job despite knowing they aren’t qualified or capable of doing it safely.
Instead of taking the risk, trust us to provide everything you need alongside excellent reliability and customer service.
The ADR class of goods that you need to transport will determine how it needs to be packaged, transported, and stored. The way you ship class 2 gases, for example, is different to how you’d send lithium batteries by road.
The responsibility for packaging these goods properly falls on the person or business shipping them, not the courier. If our drivers arrive to collect your item, but it is not properly packaged or labels, they may refuse to take the goods. This means it is vital that you understand the class of item you are sending and follow the ADR guidelines correctly. If you aren’t sure, we can advise you on packaging rules.
Once everything is in order, your goods will be on their way in no time, and will arrive at your destination exactly when we said it would. You’ll be able to track your goods in real time, and our drivers will be in regular contact to keep you in the loop.
Even though these goods require additional care, we still understand that speed is important.
If you require urgent hazardous goods delivery because the materials are needed at their destination ASAP, or they have a short shelf-life and time is of the essence, we’re the team to call.
Our fast ADR courier service will ensure that any dangerous goods will arrive safely and on time. We offer express courier services that will guarantee a same-day or next-day delivery, with no overnight storage necessary.
One of our insured and qualified drivers will arrive at your location ready to handle the dangerous goods. They will load everything carefully, and will be on their way once the relevant checks are completed.
This doesn’t mean they rush the job though. Our drivers will always take extra care with your items, regardless of whether they are a folder of documents or highly dangerous goods. Upon arrival, they’ll unload the items and they’ll be ready to use. We can also arrange for a collection by the same driver, so they can bring something back to you if you need it, saving you time, money, and the hassle of working with multiple drivers.
We cover every inch of the UK, with drivers and vehicles in place across the country to ensure we can arrange someone close by to come to you. The vehicles we use vary from cars to huge lorries, so no job is too big or too small.
