What we do

In October 2007 Bridgeway Freighting launched its overnight, premium and economy pallet delivery services. Links to all of the major pallet delivery networks enable Bridgeway to cater to the needs of their current clients as well as reaching out to new ones.

Each pallet network has its own strengths and weaknesses which Bridgeway can exploit on your behalf. Bridgeway are able to pick the best parts of each network ensuring that your pallets get the best service on offer for the required collection and destination points. As a result Bridgeway can now offer same day collections of your freight from anywhere in the UK with a next day, premium or economy delivery service.

Deliveries can be with tail lifts or hi-ab or simply handball. Anything is possible and Bridgeway are best placed to provide for your needs. With 26 years experience in the supply chain and logistics industry and fantastic customer service, Bridgeway is well placed to expand in this area.

Bridgeway Freighting can handle all sorts of different sized pallets. They have handled small pallets specifically used within the printing industry through to pallets that are 2 metres wide and over 6 metres long. From just one pallet through to multiple pallet consignments and multiple consignment collections.

Bridgeway also recognise that not all customers freight is of a standard nature and therefore offer bespoke rate schedules that reflect the true nature of their customers freight and provide them with the best possible value for money.

Focusing on these important areas Bridgeway have solved a varied number of issues related to these key areas some of which are outlined below.

Reasons for change

Desperate customer service departments that are spending more time chasing the delivery than getting the next order.

Unproductive sales reps out in the field, who are spending more time apologising for the last delivery because it was late or damaged than building the relationship to new levels.

Irritated operation directors who spend too much time dealing with the day to day detail of logistics rather than managing the strategic aims of the organisation.

Frustrated production planners having to expedite repeat orders to replace product damaged in the delivery process.

De-motivated customer service staff that deal with regular abuse from buyers because they are unable to give that buyer a clear answer to the simple question “where is my order?”

Anxious field reps who avoid selling into certain areas due to the poor service levels experienced in the delivery of orders to that area.

Angry production directors who move heaven and earth to make superb product in a timely manner, that repeatedly arrives in a poor condition (if at all).

Alarmed Managing Directors who spend more time in management meetings acting as broker between Sales, Production, Finance and Distribution departments arguing about logistical issues.

Frustrated finance departments dealing with the myriad of stealth surcharges imposed by the various parcel and pallet delivery providers.

Angry marketing directors who tell a great story of the quality of their company’s product only to find that the company’s reputation for quality has been totally destroyed because the delivery didn’t equate to quality of the product.

Frustrated sales reps whose bonuses are affected because the deliveries are late and future sales are reduced, ultimately leading to apathy and resignation.
