Packaging Logistics:
Keeping Your Customers’ Lines Running
Packaging is rarely the headline product — but it’s always the one that brings everything to a halt when it doesn’t arrive. Your customers’ production lines, packing departments and despatch operations are all dependent on your materials being there when they’re supposed to be. A missed delivery isn’t a delay. It’s a line stoppage, a frustrated operations manager and a relationship under strain.
Packaging businesses face their own unique logistics pressures — high volumes, awkward formats, pallets that don’t stack neatly, and customers across multiple sectors who all expect the same thing: on time, every time.
Chadkirk Transport works with packaging suppliers and distributors across the UK. We understand the importance of consistency and the cost of getting it wrong. Whether you’re moving printed cartons, rolls of film, corrugated board or specialist protective packaging, we’ll make sure it arrives when it’s supposed to.

Our Mission: Consistent Collections, Reliable Deliveries
Volume-Ready Fleet
From a single pallet to a full artic load, we have the fleet capacity to handle both regular contract runs and one-off requirements. You won’t be scrambling for vehicles when demand spikes.
Careful Handling of Awkward Formats
Packaging materials — particularly large-format board, rolls and lightweight but bulky items — require thought and care in loading and transit. Our drivers are experienced in securing and transporting non-standard formats without compromise.
Tail-Lift & Moffett Capability
Many of your customers won’t have loading dock facilities. Every vehicle in our fleet carries a tail-lift, and Moffett options are available where site conditions require offloading without a forklift.
Scheduled & Contract Distribution
If you’re running regular routes to the same customers, we can build a contract distribution arrangement around your schedules — giving you consistency, predictability and one less thing to manage.
Proactive Communication
Your customers have enough to worry about. We keep them informed, we hit the delivery window, and if anything changes on the day, we deal with it rather than leaving you to find out when they ring to complain.
