Haulage Services

Description

Peel Ports owns and operates six of the UK’s most important ports (Port of Liverpool, Heysham Port, Manchester Ship Canal, Medway (Sheerness / Chatham), Clydeport (Greenock, Hunterston, Ardrossan) and Great Yarmouth). It also operates a container terminal in Dublin. When vessels carrying animal food product, grain, biomass and steels arrive at The Port of Liverpool, the landside operation requires the product to be moved from ship to shed.
