Pallet2Ship® Service Updates

The weather has impacted operations across a wide swathe of the Midlands, Wales, Northern Ireland, and southern Scotland today following significant snowfall overnight and ongoing snowfall this morning.

A number of depots are either shut or struggling because of road conditions, or a lack of resources from staff. The list below is not exhaustive but a quick snapshot of what we know so far.

Realistically deliveries will not be re-planned until at least Monday the 13th potentially later.

Please do not hesitate to call the office if you require anything further and we will endeavor to update you as best as we can to allow you to inform your customers.

Potential strikes would disrupt both shipping and road transport across Liverpool and the surrounding areas. With union bosses warning of further strike action if they don't reach a pay agreement with MDHC.


Over 560 workers at the port of Liverpool, who are members of Unite the Union, are set to begin two weeks of strike action on Monday 19th September, ending on Monday 3rd October.

The strike's designed to disrupt operations at the UK container port after the union rejected an 8.3% pay rise from Mersey Docks and Harbour Company (MDHC). 
We will continue to monitor the situation and keep you updated with any changes. 

Please be advised that we have Roadworks being done in RG14 Bone Lane and this is also affecting Hambridge Road.
This will have an impact on timed deliveries on these roads and are currently in place for 6 weeks and started today.
There is also the Reading Festival on the August bank holiday weekend.  The road layout is going to be changed this year and is making Richfield Avenue a one-way system, this starts on Wednesday the 24th of August.

We can confirm the issue is now resolved and normal service is restored. We continue to monitor the service closely.

Thank you for your patience during this service interuption to your business, for which we again apologise.
