Overview
The effective distribution of clients' products or stock is achieved in numerous ways, dependent on the customer's service requirements and budget.TWT makes it easy for customers to select the service they require by utilising our on-line booking service.
Why pay for a dedicated vehicle if the economy of a groupage shipment is all that is required or for an express pallet delivery if the 3 day economy service is satisfactory?
This method of working has helped many clients reduce their costs without utilising inferior suppliers.
Full Loads
Since its inception in the late 1980's TWT has specialised in delivering time critical freight on time, every time. As a result, providing a "just in time" service on designated, full loads is at the heart of the company's service culture.
The provision of full or part loads has facilitated the development of a varied vehicle fleet from 3.5-ton vans to 44-ton artics with 45" curtain side trailers or rigid box vans. The company has developed relationships with all the major vehicle manufacturers to ensure the supply of the best possible equipment for each contract undertaken.
In recent years the addition of specialist IT software and equipment has further enhanced the planning and control of these loads. Each company vehicle can be tracked from origin to final destination. The customer's signature is obtained on an electronic POD is transmitted onto the company’s secure website portal.
These components combine to achieve an exceptional transportation solution for dedicated or full load consignments.
Groupage
TWT's Groupage or consolidation service has been developed for customers who require the economy of paying proportionately for the space or weight their freight utilises on a vehicle.
This ensures that shipments consigned to similar destinations can be securely transported - cost effectively. The Groupage service is ideal for customers with non time sensitive shipments or whose freight profiles are too large for our overnight pallet network, but still too small to justify a designated vehicle.
The company's advanced IT systems assist, plan and route every consignment, tracing each vehicles progress during it's delivery schedule.
