J Dickinson Transport joins Pallet-Track

Pallet-Track has welcomed J Dickinson Transport, based in Carlisle to the network.

Dickinson Transport has left UPN and will cover the CA, TD and DG postcodes, which include the border areas between England and Scotland, for Pallet-Track.

It is one of the hauliers brought in to address the areas previously covered by Canute Haulage Group.

J Dickinson Transport was founded 23 years ago by ex-carpenter, Jimmy Dickinson, when he purchased a van.

The business now has 20 vehicles and 25 staff on the books.

Jimmy said: “As a former carpet fitter, I know what it means to tread carefully. There are a number of advantages of joining the Pallet-Track network, not least that we’ve got the postcodes we really wanted and the volumes are significantly bigger, which makes great business sense.”

The addition of J Dickinson Transport brings Pallet-Track’s shareholder members to 86 companies in the UK and Ireland.
