What ADR-classified cargo we handle

Our ADR-certified team transports a wide range of classified hazardous materials across all UK and EU-compliant categories:

• Class 2 (Gases): Compressed, liquefied, and dissolved gases; aerosols and articles containing gas.
• Class 3 (Flammable Liquids): Petrol, solvents, paint thinners, and other organic peroxides.
• Class 4 (Flammable Solids): Phosphorus, metal powders, and self-reactive substances.
• Class 5 (Oxidising Substances): Peroxides, chlorates, and other oxidisers that support combustion.
• Class 6 (Toxic and Infectious): Pesticides, biological samples (subject to additional protocols), and toxic solids/liquids.
• Class 8 (Corrosive Substances): Acids, alkalis, and other corrosive materials requiring careful handling.
• Class 9 (Miscellaneous Hazardous): Lithium batteries (UN3480/UN3481), magnetised materials, and environmental hazards.

What we do not transport: Class 1 (explosives) and Class 7 (radioactive materials). These fall outside our remit and require specialist licensed carriers.

Guildford is a major hub for advanced manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, and chemical processing. Our local market intelligence reveals:

"Hazardous goods transport isn't about speed—it's about certainty. Every ADR-certified driver on our fleet carries the responsibility of moving materials that demand zero shortcuts. In Guildford's pharma and manufacturing cluster, we're trusted because we never cut corners." —Taras, Founder, T&C Logistics

ADR compliance and driver training

All T&C Logistics drivers assigned to hazardous goods shipments hold a valid ADR (European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road) certification. Our compliance framework includes:

• Tremcard literacy: Every driver is trained to read, understand, and action Emergency Response Information Cards (tremcards) for each consignment.
• Orange plate placement: Correct positioning and placement of hazard identification plates per UN classification.
• UN documentation: Familiarity with Shipper's Declarations, consignment notes, and multi-copy transport documents.
• TDG in transit: Adherence to Transport of Dangerous Goods regulations, including vehicle checks, load segregation, and incident reporting protocols.
• Vehicle certification: Our ULEZ-compliant fleet is maintained to standards appropriate for hazardous goods—no breaches of structural integrity or seal faults.

We do not hold NDA-briefed driver claims on standard ADR routes, but specialist briefing is available on request for sensitive shipments. All drivers sign standard confidentiality agreements as standard.
