PROFESSIONAL HAULAGE SERVICES
Founded in 1990, MDF Transport are one of Britain’s leading specialists in moving abnormal loads, transporting massive structures up to 45 metres long and 85 tonnes in weight hundreds of miles.
Transporting everything from electronics and plastic mouldings to railway sleepers and paper reels, our fleet is constantly on the move around the UK and Europe.
There’s no substitute for experience when it comes to the complex business of moving an abnormal load. From planning and preparation to loading and delivery, our drivers and their support teams are specialists in the field.
SPECIALIST EQUIPMENT
With more than 70 trailers in our fleet, we have the capacity to handle freight of all shapes and sizes. We work closely with customers who have particular requirements and have made innovative adaptations to various trailers to improve the efficiency of moving customers’ specialist products.
Also available are flat trailers, double deck and mega curtain-sided trailers for loads of up to 101 cubic metres. We also have step-frame and low-loaders which are especially important on the roads of continental Europe, where height limits are lower than those of the UK.
ROUTE PLANNING
Transporting structures 80 tonnes in weight, 40 metres long or nine metres wide requires a great deal of advance planning. A visual assessment identifies potential problem areas and the latest mapping CAD design technology are then used to produce animated simulations of difficult corners and junctions.
We plan every inch of consignment movement from reception to delivery, and have a proven track record in the area supported by a good working relationship with police and highways agencies in the UK and across Europe.
