Right now, with many companies unable to operate because of either the enforced government lockdown, staff shortages due to sickness/self isolation or lack of work to keep them in business, the continuing operation of TJ Transport is even more important.
TJ is a key business as they provide many services to essential works, particularly those focussed on construction and infrastructure. As such, they remain open during lockdown and are continuing to deliver many of their transport and waste services.
Haulage is a service that is imperative to keeping projects going despite the circumstances. TJ is able to offer various haulage services, so please get in touch to discuss your requirements.
When it comes to bulk haulage solutions for the construction, building materials and waste industries, TJ is able to deliver. Trusted and reliable, we operate a large and versatile fleet of bulk haulage vehicles, capable of transporting a range of materials, waste and freight loads throughout the UK.
Over 90 8×4 wheel tipper lorries: these are ideal for transporting a range of construction materials and wastes including: inert waste i.e. soil and hardcore (muckaway), asphalt, aggregates, heavy duty loads i.e. rock armour and contaminated waste.
Nineteen 6×2 tractor units: these have access to a range of trailers and are also known as artic lorries. We use these to transport aggregates directly from quarries/wharves, and most bulk waste streams including refuse-derived fuel, non-recoverable landfill waste, wood, plasterboard and metal.
We are committed to providing the highest level of service, safety and reliability, at competitive prices. Our fleet is accredited by the TfL Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme, whilst all of our bulk haulage vehicles boast advanced safety and communications systems.

TJ also won the Transport for London Award in 2018 for reducing occupational road risk for the company’s drivers. Criteria for the award included showing how technology, management systems and behavioural initiatives can reduce road accidents.
TJ has a strong focus on driver training. There is an annual induction event during which drivers receive training to update their skills and learn new ones. There are also different training requirements that need to be met to satisfy different customers. For example, Highways England encourages drivers to hold a Passport Scheme competency card to enter sites to ensure competency. Other clients require drivers to have a Site Safety Awareness (MPQC) Card which also covers vulnerable road user training. Drivers must also complete 35 hours of periodic training every five years in order to be able to continue to drive commercially.
