Haulage & Transport Company Serving Northampton

Johnson's Haulage arranges road transport for businesses in Northampton and across Northamptonshire. We plan every movement from our Stockport office — roughly 130 road miles away — and appoint a vetted carrier positioned near the collection point, so Northampton businesses get national haulage capacity with one named point of contact and one invoice.

Transport services available in Northampton

We arrange full loads, part loads and pallet distribution in and out of Northampton, alongside same-day and dedicated vehicles when a consignment cannot wait for a network service. Loads for Northamptonshire 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.

Northampton industrial areas we collect from

Collections and deliveries are regularly arranged at Brackmills Industrial Estate, Swan Valley, Moulton Park, DIRFT at nearby Crick. 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

Northampton is served by the M1 at junctions 15–16, with the A45 and A43 serving the town's distribution parks. For international movements we co-ordinate road legs to and from DIRFT rail freight terminal, plus Felixstowe and London Gateway 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 Northampton transport requirements

Local demand is shaped by national distribution, footwear and leather, food and drink, engineering. Common routes we plan include Northampton to the North West via the M1 and M6; Northampton to Felixstowe via the A14; Northampton to London via the M1. Northampton's distribution parks are among the busiest in the UK, so we allow realistic turnaround time on site rather than assuming a quick tip.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

Do you have a depot in Northampton?

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

How quickly can you collect from Northampton?

Same-day collection is often achievable in Northampton 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 Northamptonshire?

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

Do you handle international freight from Northampton?

Yes. We arrange European road transport as well as air and sea freight, co-ordinating the Northampton road leg through DIRFT rail freight terminal, plus Felixstowe and London Gateway for containers as part of one movement.
