Transmode Logistics
Standard Container Transport
Our standard haulage vehicles can accommodate all container types including high cube, reefer, pallet wide, open top and flat rack. We can also work with any unit size, whether it’s 20ft, 40ft, or 45ft. Our Felixstowe-based fleet is well-equipped for any haulage job, from routine deliveries to more complex journeys with awkward or valuable cargo.
All of our trucks comply with legal weight limits and can comfortably be backed into a loading bay at a distribution centre or large warehouse. A pick-up date and time will be agreed with you prior to arrival so your cargo isn’t loaded into a container earlier (or later) than it needs to be.
Transmode Logistics
Drop and collect
This type of haulage is a good fit for customers who wish to store goods in a container as they arrive on site. Transmode will arrange for a crane-equipped truck to deliver the container to your premises and lift it onto the ground. A side ladder will then return, at a date of your choosing, to pick up the container and transport it to the desired destination.

Wait and Load
If you don’t have a loading bay at your warehouse or distribution centre, we can arrange for one of our side loaders to collect your cargo. Side loaders are equipped with in-built cranes, making them perfect for ‘wait and load’ haulage. They can load and unload a container onsite, without the need for additional handling equipment. This means containers can be moved quickly and inexpensively at both ends of a jounrney.
We can also deliver an empty container and take away a loaded container as part of the same visit. This is ideal for customers who are regular exporters.

Tail Lift Trailers
Certain haulage operations require specialised equipment that can manage the logistical challenges of the job. Our tail lift trailers are designed to ensure the smooth unloading of a large haulage load, without any risk of damage to the cargo. They also allow containers to be reloadecd anywhere, which is ideal for customers who need a degree of flexibility.
If you cannot see the container logistics solution you need, speak to our team with your specific needs and we can put together a bespoke managed solution.
