Plan the delivery

Site access near Sunderland

Access requirements depend on the container and the vehicle assigned to the job. We confirm the safe working space before booking rather than relying on one clearance figure for every delivery.

Common delivery routes: A1, A19 and A69 across Tyneside, Wearside and Northumberland, with onward routes into County Durham and southern Scotland.

Local consideration: Central Tyneside jobs can have parking and working-space limits. Rural Northumberland deliveries may involve narrow lanes, gradients and soft ground.

What to send with your enquiry

  • Entrance and route width

    Measure the narrowest gate, lane or access point and note any tight bends on the approach.

  • Turning and working space

    Share the available space for the delivery vehicle to enter, position and leave safely.

  • Overhead clearance

    Identify cables, branches, canopies and buildings along the route and beside the placement area.

  • Ground and slope

    The vehicle and container need firm, level ground. Tell us about soft ground, gradients, drains or weak surfaces.

  • Final container position

    Mark the intended door direction and the distance from the vehicle to the set-down point.

  • Photos and measurements

    Send clear photos or a short video with measurements. We use them to select the appropriate delivery vehicle.
