BULK LIQUID TRANSPORT EXPERTS
Logistics service provider specialised in delivering bulk liquids & animal feed across the UK
Rapeseed Oil Haulage Across the UK
Professional bulk vegetable oil tanker haulage for food and feed industries
We provide specialist rapeseed oil haulage for food manufacturers, oil processors and agricultural businesses throughout the UK. Refined and crude rapeseed oils can have different end uses and handling requirements, so we discuss product specifications and tanker suitability before arranging transport. Our service connects suitable loading facilities with factories, refineries and processing sites using experienced drivers and specialist bulk liquid equipment.
As a specialist UK haulage business, we understand that bulk liquid transport depends on careful planning, clear communication and the right equipment. We work with businesses of different sizes and tailor arrangements to the product, route and delivery site. Our aim is to make collections and deliveries straightforward while supporting the supply chains that serve food production and agriculture.
Refined and Crude Rapeseed Oil Haulage
Refined rapeseed oil is used in a variety of food products, while crude oil may be moved for further processing or other approved applications. Product integrity and previous-load controls are important, particularly for food-grade movements. We follow applicable SCOPA procedures for food-grade oils and relevant TASCC requirements where products are destined for animal feed.
Nationwide Specialist Tanker Services
We arrange collections and deliveries across England, Scotland and Wales, connecting refineries, storage terminals, manufacturing plants and agricultural sites. Our base in Aspatria, Cumbria, supports transport requirements throughout the North West and further afield. Whether you need an individual movement or a recurring delivery schedule, we discuss loading times, site access and discharge requirements before planning a suitable journey.
Equipment and Safe Discharge
Our fleet of seven vehicles includes Scania, Volvo and DAF models with hydraulic discharge systems, pumps and compressors. Product compatibility, viscosity, loading facilities and the receiving site’s equipment all matter when selecting a suitable tanker arrangement. Our team works with customers to establish these details in advance, helping reduce delays and supporting safe, efficient unloading.
Product Integrity and Industry Standards
We understand that bulk liquid deliveries often enter sensitive food production or animal feed supply chains. SLD Logistics follows the SCOPA code of practice for food-grade oils and applicable TASCC requirements for animal feed transport. Attention to previous loads, tanker cleanliness, relevant documentation and site procedures helps protect product integrity from collection through to delivery.
An Experienced Independent Haulage Company
Founded in 2020 by Stephen Dixon, who brings decades of haulage experience, SLD Logistics has grown from two ageing trucks to a modern seven-vehicle fleet. We combine the practical flexibility of an independent operator with a professional approach to vehicle maintenance, customer communication and transport scheduling. We aim to provide dependable service and competitive pricing without compromising appropriate handling standards.
Discuss Your Transport Requirements
If you are planning a bulk liquid movement, we can discuss the product, collection and delivery addresses, estimated quantity, site access, unloading arrangements and preferred timetable. We welcome enquiries from manufacturers, agricultural suppliers, processors and businesses seeking a dependable UK transport partner. Visit SLD Logistics to contact our team and request a quotation.
Our team also recognises the value of consistent communication throughout each booking. Clear details about the collection window, product description, delivery access and unloading facilities help everyone prepare for the movement. Where a customer has particular handling instructions or documentation requirements, we encourage these to be discussed before dispatch. This practical approach helps us provide a service suited to the individual site and supports efficient operations at both ends of the journey.
