What ADR-classified cargo we handle

T&C Logistics transports hazardous goods across the following ADR classifications:

• Class 2: Gases — compressed, liquefied, and dissolved gases (e.g. oxygen, nitrogen, LPG)
• Class 3: Flammable liquids — petrol, paint, solvents, alcohol-based products
• Class 4: Flammable solids — phosphorus, metal powders, self-reactive substances
• Class 5: Oxidising agents and organic peroxides — bleach, hydrogen peroxide, pool chemicals
• Class 6: Toxic and infectious substances — pesticides, disinfectants, biological samples (temperature-controlled)
• Class 8: Corrosive substances — sulphuric acid, hydrochloric acid, caustic soda
• Class 9: Miscellaneous dangerous goods — lithium batteries (UN3480/UN3481), environmentally hazardous substances

We do not transport: Class 1 explosives or Class 7 radioactive materials. These require specialist carriers outside our remit.

Each shipment is documented with compliant UN numbers, proper packaging, labelling and emergency contact information. We verify shipper declarations and maintain full chain-of-custody records.

Worcester industrial ecosystem

Worcester is home to a thriving industrial and life-sciences community. Current registered business data shows 8,390 companies operating across the city, including 247 dedicated logistics operators, 436 manufacturing firms and 320 pharma-medical businesses. This concentration of manufacturing and pharmaceutical activity creates steady demand for ADR-compliant transport—particularly for Class 3 (flammable liquids) and Class 8 (corrosive) shipments from production facilities, and Class 6 (toxic/biological) materials from research and clinical labs.

Additionally, Worcester hosts 508 tech and electronics firms, many of which ship lithium-ion battery packs (UN3480/UN3481) to assembly plants and retailers across the UK. Our ADR team is fully equipped to handle the rapid turnaround these sectors require, with 24/7 dispatch and same-day collection from industrial estates across the city.

"Hazardous goods logistics demands precision, accountability and real-time transparency. We've built our ADR service around driver training, tremcard familiarity and signed chain-of-custody procedures—so your cargo arrives safely and your compliance file is bulletproof." —Taras, Founder, T&C Logistics

ADR compliance and driver training

Every driver assigned to ADR shipments holds a valid ADR professional qualification, covering:

• Classification and hazard identification (UN numbers, packing groups)
• Tremcard (Technical Emergency Card) interpretation and emergency protocols
• Correct use of orange hazard-warning plates and vehicle marking
• UN documentation standards and shipper declaration verification
• Segregation rules (e.g. keeping Class 3 liquids away from Class 5 oxidisers)
• Vehicle equipment (fire extinguishers, spill kits, emergency contact placards)

Drivers receive NDA briefings prior to collection and understand the importance of route planning to minimise dwell time and environmental exposure. We maintain signed proof-of-delivery (POD) records with full chain-of-custody documentation for regulatory audit purposes. Temperature-controlled variants are available for Class 6 biological samples (2–8 °C or 15–25 °C stable).
