How important is Slough as a logistics and manufacturing hub?
Slough's commercial landscape is a powerhouse of regulated logistics, with 1,263 logistics operators, 972 pharma-medical firms, and 510 manufacturing companies operating in the town, creating substantial and constant demand for compliant hazardous goods transport.
Pharmaceutical and medical device manufacturers generate significant ADR cargo: solvents, reagents, sterilisation agents, and temperature-sensitive hazardous preparations. Manufacturing firms ship metal powders, corrosive processing chemicals, and flammable components. The industrial estates and trading parks surrounding Slough require daily, often same-day, hazardous goods dispatch to distribution centres, hospitals, laboratories, and production sites across the south-east and beyond.
"Slough is a logistics corridor hub. Our ADR-certified drivers know every industrial estate, every docking procedure, every compliance checkpoint. Speed and safety go together—never one without the other." —Taras, Founder, T&C Logistics
We're embedded in this ecosystem, managing hundreds of ADR movements annually from Slough alone.

- We're licensed to carry Classes 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, and 9 (including lithium batteries UN3480/UN3481). We do not transport Class 1 (explosives) or Class 7 (radioactive). Every class requires dedicated handling, correct documentation, and trained ADR-certified drivers. If you're unsure of your cargo's classification, our team can advise based on the UN number and SDS.
- Can you transport lithium batteries (UN3480/UN3481) from Slough?
- Yes. Lithium batteries fall under ADR Class 9 (miscellaneous dangerous goods) and are a major part of our Slough operations. We handle both Class 9 lithium ion and lithium metal shipments, ensuring correct packaging, labelling, and documentation. Typical routes include electronics manufacturers and distribution centres across the south-east.

- Can you provide emergency or out-of-hours escort services for hazardous goods?
- Emergency dispatch and escort arrangements are available on a case-by-case basis and quoted individually. Contact us immediately with your situation—our 24/7 team will assess feasibility and provide a quote. Response is rapid, but pricing depends on vehicle type, route, and timing.
- Do you transport hazardous waste from Slough?
- No. Hazardous waste requires specialised waste carrier licensing and disposal chain credentials beyond standard ADR courier work. We recommend contacting a licensed hazardous waste management firm.
