Haulage & Transport Company Serving Cambridge

Johnson's Haulage arranges road transport for businesses in Cambridge and across Cambridgeshire. We plan every movement from our Stockport office — roughly 180 road miles away — and appoint a vetted carrier positioned near the collection point, so Cambridge businesses get national haulage capacity with one named point of contact and one invoice.

Transport services available in Cambridge

We arrange full loads, part loads and pallet distribution in and out of Cambridge, alongside same-day and dedicated vehicles when a consignment cannot wait for a network service. Loads for Cambridgeshire customers are sized to the job — a van, 7.5 tonne, 18 tonne or artic — rather than forced into a fixed vehicle type, and Hiab, tail-lift and moffett options are specified when the delivery point has no forklift.

Cambridge industrial areas we collect from

Collections and deliveries are regularly arranged at Cambridge Research Park, Waterbeach, Cambourne Business Park, Cowley Road industrial area. Access, opening hours and booking-in requirements differ across these sites, so the vehicle and the arrival window are agreed with the site before the carrier is confirmed.

Motorway and gateway connections

Cambridge is served by the M11 and A14, with the A428 running west towards the A1. For international movements we co-ordinate road legs to and from Stansted Airport around 30 miles south and Felixstowe for containers, so an import or export can run door to door on a single Johnson's Haulage booking rather than being handed between suppliers.

Typical Cambridge transport requirements

Local demand is shaped by life sciences and biotech, electronics and instrumentation, research and education. Common routes we plan include Cambridge to Felixstowe via the A14; Cambridge to the North West via the A14 and M6; Cambridge to London via the M11. Laboratory and instrumentation loads out of Cambridge often need dedicated vehicles and careful handling rather than a pallet network service.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

Do you have a depot in Cambridge?

No. We plan from a single office in Stockport and appoint carriers from our approved network who are already based near Cambridge, which keeps positioning costs down and gives you one point of contact rather than a call centre.

How quickly can you collect from Cambridge?

Same-day collection is often achievable in Cambridge subject to carrier availability, and next-day is routine. Tell us the ready time and the deadline and we will confirm what is realistic before you commit.

Can you deliver pallets into Cambridgeshire?

Yes. Anything from a single pallet to a full deck can be delivered across Cambridgeshire through pallet network services, with timed and tail-lift options where the delivery point needs them.

Do you handle international freight from Cambridge?

Yes. We arrange European road transport as well as air and sea freight, co-ordinating the Cambridge road leg through Stansted Airport around 30 miles south and Felixstowe for containers as part of one movement.
