DfT May Permit Longer freight trailers

Uncategorised

Posted on March 31, 2011

The Department for Transport has consulted with over 170 freight, logistics and retail organisations to produce a report recommending a two metre increase in the total length of articulated vehicles. No increase in overall weight would be allowed, but the extra length will allow freight hauliers to carry more pallets and therefore reduced their carbon emissions. The move could increase capacity for logistics operators carrying lighter goods by up to 13%.

Very pleased with RW Freight Services. We don't get shipments from outside of the UK very often but if we had anymore we would use RW Freight again
