A year in pictures

We’ve moved boats, plant, motorbikes, houses, cars, camper vans, gypsy huts, wood chippers, and industrial lathes. We’ve handled everything from everyday workhorses to prestige vehicles including Aston Martin, Volkswagen, Rolls-Royce, and more. Some jobs were straightforward, others tested us, but every single one added to the story.

It hasn’t been without its challenges. We’ve dealt with breakdowns, delays, and the unexpected realities that come with moving heavy, valuable, and unusual loads. But we’ve also had big wins from jobs that went perfectly, customers who trusted us with something important, and moments where experience and planning paid off exactly as they should.

This year has been a reminder of just how varied, challenging, and rewarding transport can be.

This year also marked an important step forward for our fleet. The Mercedes is now fully in service as the head of the fleet, strengthening our core capability, while our Isuzu D-Max fleet has been reinforced with the addition of a VW Touareg, giving us extra resilience, flexibility, and reach.

Geographically, we’ve covered the country end to end — from the top of Scotland to the bottom of Cornwall, and coast to coast from east to west. Every mile reinforced what we do best: moving things safely, carefully, and reliably, no matter where they need to go.

We want to sincerely thank all our past customers, and everyone who has helped us along the way — whether through trust, recommendations, support, or simply giving us the opportunity to prove ourselves.

As we head into 2026, we do so with confidence, ambition, and some big plans ahead.

We’re excited for what’s coming next and look forward to another year of challenges, progress, and journeys still to be made.

Here’s to the road ahead.
