Surrey-based logistics firm, Frederick R Miller Ltd, has invested £400,000 to expand its fleet to meet the growing demand for freight services across the region.
Frederick R Miller, part of Palletways, Europe’s largest and fastest growing express palletised freight network, operates in and around Kingston upon Thames, Guildford and Redhill. The company has taken delivery of four 44t Scania tractor units which will come into service immediately, to support the 200,000 pallets it moves every year through its collection, delivery and trunking operations.
Adrian Westwood, managing director at Frederick R Miller, said: “We owe it to other Palletways members and our customer base to continually invest in the best equipment, to maintain and improve our service. We believe this recent investment sends out a strong signal to the marketplace about our capabilities which we believe are unparalleled amongst our competitors.”
Frederick R Miller, based at Forsyth’s Home Farm in Shackleford, offers urgent/overnight freight services and next day or same-day deliveries that are all tracked and visible to customers via its advanced IT systems. The company boasts extensive storage facilities and the capacity to move full and part loads. It counts Domus Tiles, YTD Flooring, Manning Impex, Safeguard Europe and Nutriment among its customers.
