Secure Transportation Ltd are not just a normal courier company who simply transport your goods from A 2 B.
We do a lot more in between. 

​Last week I was chatting to an old acquaintance who came out with that all too familiar phrase

Do your connections really know all you have to offer?

Whether it is our small to medium or even our global clients, one of the things we do is add value to their business with our range of bespoke services. ​We are interested in connecting with individuals and companies who are looking at the de rack, relocation, transportation and installation of IT hardware from datacentre to datacenter or anywhere else for that matter, both in the UK and European Union. That includes ones that may see themselves as competitors but who would like to form long lasting business relationships.

With all this bad weather about it is hard to get away from all the social media posts and 24 hour news of what has been going on. It's starting to thaw out in London now so I thought I might add my two penn'orth in and share a couple of the most important things that keeps us going as a transport / logistics provider.

It's not rocket science!

1. Get yourself some winter tyres. It doesn't cost you any more money in the long run. 
2. Invest in some snow chains. They are easy to put on once you have the knack.

If your vehicle can't move you can't make a delivery.

Of course it doesn't matter what tyres you have because if you drive like an idiot they aren't probably going to make much of a difference any way. 

So my next 2 top tips are:

1. Slow the heck down. 
2. Don't sit up the arse of the vehicle in front.

Of course we all need to be conscientious, make a living and not let anyone down otherwise the country would grind to a halt, but needless to say if it is that bad and could be a danger to life and a non essential journey that could be done at a later date then keep off the road and don't add to the problems!

Sometimes though you do just get caught up in it and have to improvise and get on with it. The pictures below are from an IT transportation and installation job back in 2006 to Copenhagen Denmark when we weren't all like "snowflakes". Needless to say we had most of the right tools to get the job done!

​Our new Renault Master tail lift arrived the other week fully kitted out and also equipped with VB adjustable air ride suspension, a further commitment to our IT relocation and installation services. Coupled with our range of bespoke shock mount rack flight cases this ensures our client's kit arrives as it should. 

​The last couple of weeks has seen us travel the length and breadth of the country plying our wares across several of our core business sectors. Interested? then take a peak below or contact us for a chat....

Each month we are delivering our client's Pro AV kit up and down the country and further afield and providing logistical support for conferences and exhibitions.

Nothing like kicking the week off with an IT relocation job. These images taken from today. Pick up a Juniper MX 960 in one of our custom made 24u shock mount flight case racks at our client's London office then over to Interxion DC off Brick Lane, East London and and re rack using some of our bespoke hydraulic lifting equipment.

Just a normal day at the office!

​Bishopsgate and Threadneedle Street London are logistically challenging, one with no legal parking and the other on a red route. Not for the faint hearted and only to be attempted on a weekend. The weather was on our side too as van loads of equipment were lined along the side of the road waiting to be moved in through the front entrance.

Early September saw us relocate several Juniper routers and MRV Lambda drivers from our client's London office across 3 sites in Manchester. Everything was packed in our bespoke flight cases and re racked using our specialist lifting equipment.

For this job we rolled out one of our new tool box / road trunk flight cases making life easier on site and increasing productivity. Manufactured and supplied by 5 Star Cases with our distinctive corporate colours of an orange lid line this adds to our ever increasing stock of equipment to ensure we have the right tools to do the job.

​London to Manchester and 3 DC's re racked in one day. One happy client and another 5 star service by Secure Transportation.

With a lift too small to accommodate the OEM packing crates or any of our flight cases and 2 steps exiting the building to this "bomb site" of a car park (they are demolishing for redevelopment but have found over 70 bodies there hence the excavation!) it was always going to be difficult. Fortunately the weather was on our side and we have all the necessary equipment to overcome any obstacle that is put in our way.

We stock most OEM pallet bases, anti static over bags, brackets and screws for Juniper Network, T, PTX, MX series routers ensuring they are transported correctly.

Other manufactures equipment such as Cisco, HP etc can be packed in our range of bespoke flight cases.

We have been using Andy for several significant projects over the past couple of years. This includes the shipping and assistance with racking of Juniper PTX and MX routers, move of our complete Lab setup from one office to the next, and many others.

His professional and flexible approach to all of these projects has been an invaluable asset to get the work done! 

We will certainly keep going back to Andy for future projects and highly recommend Andy and his team!
