Van Elle transport fleet at work

Van Elle Transport and Fleet 

Our dedicated transport fleet provides transportation services for all our plant, machinery and ancillary equipment making sure it arrives safely and on-time to sites across the UK.  

We are committed to providing the highest services, abiding by top safety standards, and we are accredited by the Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme (FORS). 

Operating from a central position, with close access to the M1, everything from movement orders of our wholly-owned fleet to associated lift plans are dealt with in-house.  

What are our heavy haulage, abnormal loads, and specialist vehicles capabilities? 

Van Elle has a range of vehicles, from heavy haulage of a payload up to 150 tonnes gross vehicle weight, to restricted access areas with our specially designed beavertail rigid wagons.  

We have extensive experience moving heavy, long or abnormal plant and machinery, and own a fleet of escort vehicles to meet the specifications of the Highway Agency’s Self-Escorting of Abnormal Loads and Abnormal Vehicles Code of Practice.  

We invest in the latest vehicles to keep our fleet modern and reliable and from this year all of our lorries will be Euro 6 compliant.  

Why use Van Elle?

Our in-house experienced team work around the clock to quickly mobilise and respond to any urgent enquiry you may have. We organise movement orders and associated lift plans in-house. Our vehicles are fitted with live telematics which allows our team to see where the fleet is in real-time.   

We have been awarded the Silver Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme (FORS) and are Construction Logistics and Community Safety (CLOCS) compliant and part of Road Haulage Association (RHA).  

Safety is at the heart of our transportation team with our vehicles fitted with foreword facing and driver-facing cameras. Our drivers work to the highest standards and have all completed Personal Track Safety (PTS), loadmaster, lorry loader, slinger and vulnerable road user training ensuring they work to the highest and safest standards on-site and on the road. Our drivers are also all accredited to CPCS, NPORS and ALLMI and are fully trained to National Highways Safety passport standards.
