New ADR container transport service at TDG

TDG has introduced a new container service from its Thurrock depot for existing and new customers moving containers under ADR regulations. It can handle 20ft and 40 ft iso-tankers, and also provides storage on site.

TDG Thurrock, known as a specialist fuel and chemical operation, has always used road tankers to move product in the past. However, responding to customer requirements, it has now developed its complimentary container handling service.

“We found there was a real gap in the market for a company capable of not just arranging container services but having a robust ADR specialism, particularly in the Thames area”.

“Typically, container operators are moving and storing non hazardous products. However, we have a track record of being ‘a safe pair of hands’ when it comes to handling chemicals and fuel.  Our drivers are ADR trained, and our tractor units meet stringent ADR safety standards, which is not common place for container operators, so customers can have a great deal of confidence in our service,” says TDG site manager, Chris Smith.

TDG can even offer an integrated solution including import and export ocean freight management and customs brokerage through its own in-house International Services teams.

TDG Thurrock specialises in moving product to and from – Tilbury and the Thames ports and it is increasingly working with consignments from Felixstowe.
