• Contract runs
come in all shapes and sizes and can be a very flexible
way of reducing costs.
• We have a company in Manchester where we pick up every
Monday morning at 8-00 a.m., and deliver to Birmingham, with
a return load back to Manchester. Because this is a regular
contract, we can plan the efficient use of vehicles and man
hours, and be able to pass on a discount to our clients. Our
clients are delighted with this arrangement, and can vary
it when the need arises.
• Other contracts are more demanding with timed collections
and timed deliveries on a 24/7 basis.
• The M1 shuttle already attracts a 50% discount
on single pallets. By contracting, that is agreeing
to send one pallet on certain specified day or days, our clients
can save more money. Unlike the trunk runs, all our clients
are doing is booking space for one or more days a week, and
if it goes via the M1 shuttle they can save even more money.
•Contracts can be for one or more vans on one or more
days a week, for single drop deliveries, or multi drops B2B
or B2C.
• If you have deliveries or collections to make on a
regular basis, a contract is a reliable cost effective route
to follow.
