Distribution

David Hathaway Transport has over 55 vehicles and 100 trailers providing an excellent distribution service throughout the UK.

Every aspect of the process, from collection through to storage and delivery, is computer co-ordinated with each vehicle being connected to the traffic office, via the latest Vodafone mobile communication technology.

The system also utilises brand new Navman GPS Telemetry, for both vehicles and trailers, enabling our traffic controllers to track consignments in real time. Customers and delivery points can then be accurately updated as to the progress of deliveries.

We offer a total logistics service for customers looking to outsource: from collecting the goods from your facility, storing them until required for distribution, then picking and delivering them to any part of the UK. We work with JIT demands very much in mind.

Same day, next day or specific day services to all parts of the UK are available. From parcels to full loads of 44 tonnes.

We can monitor specific KPIs according to customer requirements. Our Delivery Performance KPI 'on time and in full' is System Generated and regularly exceeds 98%. This is customer specific and reported monthly in a format detailing each non conformance. This provides a robust reporting procedure on which to improve subsequent delivery performance and customer. We can prove what we say..... Can your current provider ? Please give us a call to see hiow this can work for your business.

Whilst the vast majority of deliveries are made by our own vehicles, we are also founder members of PARTNERLINK ltd, a scheme set up by a small group of like-minded companies, to handle night time freight exchanges. This improves service and efficiency, while reducing our respective carbon footprints.

PALLETFORCE

We are Shareholder members of the PALLETFORCE Network. PALLETFORCE is demonstrably the leading Pallet Network in all regards.

Palletforce operates from a world class brand new modern hub facility recently opened in 2009.  The network is owned by the members. The members have a vested interest in ensuring the performance of the network. This also means full operational support is guaranteed at all times. For this reason Palletforce has attracted the best regional transport companies to the network, where the ethos is working together for the greater good of all, rather than just being a member for the middle.

David Hathaway Transport had tried two other networks but is definitely in the best position for being in PALLETFORCE
