Safety & Carrier Standards

Every load we move goes with a carrier we have checked first. As a broker, our job is to put your cargo with the right operator and to be accountable if something goes wrong.

Before a carrier moves its first load with us, we check:

• A valid EU Community Licence and national transport authorisation
• A VAT number verified in VIES, and company registration
• Valid CMR liability insurance, with the certificate on file and the expiry date tracked
• ADR certification for driver and vehicle on dangerous-goods loads
• References or a track record on similar freight

We re-check documents before they expire, not after an incident.

A curtainsider that suits palletised goods isn’t right for a 40-tonne machine part or a boat hull. For project, construction and marine cargo we confirm the equipment type, load securing, and permits and escorts for oversized loads before we confirm the booking.

• One named contact follows your shipment from pickup to delivery
• Tracking and status updates at agreed checkpoints
• Photos at loading and unloading on request
• If there’s a delay or a problem, you hear it from us first

Road freight in Europe runs under the CMR Convention, so carrier liability is defined and limited by law. We tell you this upfront. For high-value cargo we can arrange additional cargo insurance, so you aren’t relying on the CMR limit alone. If there’s damage, we handle the claim with the carrier for you.
