Freight for Every Business

RN Roberts & Sons moves freight for businesses of every kind. Whatever the industry, if it needs transporting by road, we can help. The sectors below are simply industries where we have built particular knowledge and experience, from the access and compliance demands through to the specialist equipment they typically require.

Our operators hold ALLMI certification for crane-assisted lifts. Our drivers are CPC qualified and ADR certified. Every vehicle runs live tracking, so you know where your load is and we can respond quickly to changes on the ground. Call us or send an enquiry and we will give you a straight answer on what we can do.

How We Work

Whatever the sector, tell us what you need and we handle the rest, from planning and pricing to delivery.

Tell Us What You Need Moving

Call us or send an enquiry with the details, including what, where, and when. No load is too big or too awkward to discuss.

We Plan the Job & Confirm the Price

We work out the right vehicle, permits, and route for the load, then confirm the price up front. Abnormal loads get the full planning treatment. Nothing is left to chance.

We Collect & Deliver on Time

Our experienced drivers collect and deliver to schedule. Every vehicle runs live tracking, and you get a direct line to the team, not a call centre, if you need an update.

RN Roberts HIAB lorry at a construction site

Construction Haulage

Plant, machinery, and materials need to reach site on time and in one piece. Construction sites present real access challenges: tight entrances, uneven ground, and restricted turning circles that rule out standard delivery vehicles. We understand site logistics and how to get loads in where others cannot.

For sites without unloading equipment, our HIAB vehicles carry an integrated crane with ALLMI-trained operators, placing loads exactly where they are needed without relying on site craneage. Heavy plant and machinery moves on our low loader fleet, with permit management included where weights or dimensions require it.

Services suited to this sector

Steel & Heavy Metals Haulage

Steel is heavy, often long, and demands the right trailer and the right approach to load security. Long beams, coils, sheet packs, and structural sections all need open deck access, correct bearing points, and proper strapping. A curtainsider simply will not do. Our flatbed fleet provides a clean open platform with full crane and forklift access from any angle.

Where loads exceed standard legal dimensions or axle weights, we manage them as abnormal loads with the appropriate permits, route surveys, and planning in place before the vehicle moves.

Rail Industry Haulage

Moving equipment and materials into rail environments requires careful coordination alongside capability. Access to depots, sidings, and live infrastructure sites is controlled and time-critical, and loads, from trackside machinery and engineering equipment to components and consumables, need to arrive to plan, matched to site access constraints.

Where loads are oversized or require an escorted route, we carry the capability to manage the full move: abnormal load permits, route surveys, and our own escort vehicle where needed.

Aviation & Aerospace Logistics

Loads destined for aviation environments are often high-value and specialist, and the expectations around careful handling and on-time delivery are correspondingly high. Whether ground support equipment, engineering components, or aviation infrastructure materials, precision in planning and transit matters. All our vehicles run live tracking throughout every job, and our drivers treat high-value loads accordingly.

Our abnormal load capability covers oversized aviation equipment where standard transport limits apply.

Refineries, Energy & Industrial Sites

Energy and industrial sites operate under strict access and compliance requirements. Deliveries to refineries, power stations, and process facilities need to meet site induction standards, and the loads, including plant, heavy components, and specialist equipment, are often outside standard transport limits. Our operators are familiar with the documentation, access protocols, and permit requirements common to these environments.

Low loader transport handles the heavy plant moves. HIAB places components to site where craneage is not available on arrival. Where dimensions or axle weights exceed legal limits, abnormal load permits are managed end to end before the vehicle departs.

Any Other Industry

The sectors above are industries where we have built particular experience, but they are not the limit of who we work with. RN Roberts & Sons moves freight for businesses of every kind across Wales and the wider UK. If it needs transporting by road, get in touch and we will give you a straight answer on what we can do. And if you would rather hire the trailer than have the load moved, we offer trailer hire too.

Whether the load is standard or specialist, routine or one-off, our team will work through the requirements with you and confirm the right vehicle, the right equipment, and the right approach before the job moves.

What Our Customers Say

Excellent service, nothing was too much trouble. Highly recommended 👌

Used RN Roberts to transport plant machinery from our site in Wrexham to a job in Manchester. Excellent communication throughout, arrived on time and everything handled with care. Would absolutely use again.

Third time hiring a low loader from them. Every time the trailer is immaculate, the price is fair and they're easy to deal with. Family business feel. You're not just a number.

Needed an abnormal load moved at short notice. Llion sorted it out same day, permits and all. Genuinely impressive service from a professional outfit.

Reliable, professional and honest. Been using RN Roberts for general haulage for our construction business for years. Never let us down once.

Hired a curtainside trailer for three weeks. Good condition, competitive price, and it was collected and dropped off without any fuss. Exactly what you want from a hire company.
