Fleet Vehicle Transport for London Gateway & Tilbury Transport Managers

London Gateway and Tilbury are transforming the UK's logistics map. Gateway's deep-sea terminal handles the world's largest container ships, Tilbury's expanding ro-ro facility moves thousands of vehicles, and the Thames corridor from Purfleet to Stanford-le-Hope is one of the densest logistics zones in Europe. Transport managers here don't have spare drivers to send on vehicle collection runs — every driver is accounted for, every hour scheduled. When a vehicle needs collecting from the docks, an auction, or a supplier, VehicleMove does it. Owner-driven service, full insurance, fixed price. Your drivers stay on their planned routes.
