Sending Building Materials to the Channel Islands?
We Can Ship Your Construction Materials to Jersey and Guernsey
Construction-related freight is a Profreight specialism, and our unparalleled range of tippers, flatbeds, plated containers, Lancashire flats, rigids and artics (meeting both UK and Channel Island specifications) means that we have a solution for every need – no matter how specialist.
Transporting construction materials like aggregate, metals and concrete requires a specialist shipping service. Our Channel Islands construction freight service offers reliable and cost effective delivery of construction materials to Jersey and Guernsey sites.
What Can You Expect from our Construction Freight Service to Jersey and Guernsey?
We excel in making the transit of construction freight simple. Rather than bag up and palletise large volumes of sand, stone or chippings, simply bulk load them directly onto one of our tippers at your UK premises. Your goods will then be driven straight to site on the Islands – no trans-shipping, no handling, no hassle. Profreight offer the following services to make your construction freight shipping simple:
Our comprehensive fleet of flatbeds, tippers and specialist HGVs allow us to deliver difficult, bulky or unusual construction freight as standard
-
Profreight vehicles meet both mainland and Channel Island specifications, so we ship directly to your building site, with no trans-shipping of goods (minimising the risk of damage during transit)
-
Our specialist demountable vehicles can be hydraulically lowered to the ground, so that your larger freight such as heavy machinery can simply be walked out of the truck and into your site without the need for lifting equipment, avoiding all associated unloading risks
-
Your construction freight is secured to side rails in our specially designed vehicles to ensure security and protection during transportation.
-
We can provide experienced porters to unload your stone chippings, heavy machinery or other construction freight, minimising the risk of damage or spill
-
We can offer additional insurance to give you total peace of mind that, should the very worst happen, you are protected

Service levels provided include next day delivery, specific day or economy delivery and weekend/evening/out of hours’ delivery. In short, we will collect and deliver your construction goods to Jersey and Guernsey as, when and where required to meet your exact needs.
