Start with the longest, widest and tallest packed item, the quantity and total weight. Then check how it will be loaded, unloaded and secured. Use the vehicle cards and LoadCheck below to narrow the choice, then give our team the full job details.

They mean short, long and extra long wheelbase. On this page they identify planning categories with different cargo lengths. Manufacturer naming and actual body sizes vary, so book against the goods and confirmed load space rather than the initials alone.

No. More load volume can come with a lower payload. Our XLWB planning figure is 1,100 kg, compared with 1,250 kg for the LWB. Bodywork, equipment and the individual vehicle specification affect the actual allowance.

No. The vehicle class includes the vehicle and its load. The separate planning payload shown here is 9,000 kg. The assigned vehicle’s actual available payload and axle loading must be checked.

Compare payload, floor space and loading method, then check access at every stop. An artic can suit a larger load or regular trunking; a rigid may suit a more restricted site. Neither choice can be confirmed from pallet count alone.

Yes. We handle one-off same-day work as well as general haulage, regular routes and retail distribution. Tell us the frequency, delivery windows, expected volumes and any returns or storage requirements so the arrangement can be planned properly.

This guide is for arranging courier, haulage and specialist transport through Synergix. Tell us what needs moving and the handling you require. Event refrigerated trailer hire is a separate service to discuss with the team.

No. They are consistent planning figures for comparing the nine categories and running LoadCheck. Actual doors, wheel arches, bulkheads, bodies and fitted equipment vary. We confirm the specification needed for your job before the vehicle is agreed.

The planning pallet footprint used here is 120 × 100 cm. A Euro pallet is commonly 120 × 80 cm. Include the full loaded footprint, any overhang, the pallet itself, the packaging and the complete loaded height and weight.

The cards show nominal UK pallet positions for each category. This is a floor-space guide, not permission to fill every position regardless of weight. Mixed pallet sizes, overhang, height, access and loading order can change the usable count.

It needs a manual check. LoadCheck only rotates an item on the floor through 90 degrees and keeps it upright. It does not assume diagonal loading, tilting or bending, or prove that an item can pass through the doors.

An item must pass through the opening and be manoeuvred into position. The rear aperture may be lower or narrower than the main body, especially on some Lutons. Send the complete packed dimensions and a photograph if the fit looks close.

Yes. Include everything travelling as cargo, including pallets, cases, stillages, wrapping and protective materials. Tail lifts, cranes, forklifts and other vehicle equipment also affect the actual payload available.

Obtain the packed weight from the supplier, a product specification or a suitable weighing method. The calculator requires a positive weight for each item because an incomplete weight can give a misleading result. Call us if you need help with the next step.

Yes. When booking with Synergix, request one if pallet-truck handling is required for an individual loaded pallet weighing 800 kg or more. Tell us the full loaded weight. The team must also check the actual truck, tail-lift capacity and load centre, platform space, ground and travel route. Lower weights may need powered handling too.

Do not assume so. The platform also carries the handling equipment and any person permitted by the manufacturer. Its capacity depends on the specified load position. The complete lift must fit the platform and stay within the actual lift chart.

A MOFFETT is a truck-mounted forklift which is taken off the vehicle to handle suitable goods. A HIAB is a loader crane which lifts from its mounted position. The goods, final placing point and site conditions determine which approach to consider.

Tell us before booking. A tail lift, MOFFETT or HIAB may be appropriate, but each solves a different handling problem. We need the individual item weight, dimensions, packaging, site surface and the distance to the final delivery point.

No. Request it explicitly. The platform dimensions and rated capacity must suit the item and handling method, and the delivery surface needs checking. A vehicle having enough payload does not mean its tail lift can handle that weight in one lift.

Do not assume it can. Small pallet-truck wheels need an appropriate firm, smooth surface; gravel, steps, slopes and broken ground can prevent the planned movement. Tell us about the complete route from the vehicle to the drop point.

It depends on the crane, load weight, lift radius, configuration and site set-up. Send the distance from the proposed crane position to the placing point, height, obstacles and lifting details. A generic maximum crane capacity is not a promise at every reach.

Do not assume that is included in a standard transport movement. Request two-person, room-of-choice or agreed installation work when quoting, with stairs, lifts, walking distances, item weights and access details.

Different requirements need different specifications. State the exact temperature range, product condition and whether mixed temperatures or monitoring are needed. Confirm the arrangement before booking; the standard vehicle dimensions are not refrigerated-body specifications.

Event refrigerated trailer hire can include delivery, positioning and collection after the hire period. Confirm dates, temperatures, access, level standing, power and fuel arrangements, and who is responsible for the trailer while on site.

Discuss the goods first. Oversized, ADR, high-value and other sensitive movements require job-specific checks of the vehicle, route, documentation, equipment and handling. The calculator does not approve these requirements.

Send the collection and delivery postcodes, dates and time windows, goods description, quantity, packed dimensions and total weight. Add access restrictions, loading equipment, delivery contacts and any temperature or special handling requirements. Photos or drawings can help with unusual loads.

Vehicle and equipment, distance and route, timing, waiting, extra stops, handling, access and specialist requirements all affect the job. Give us the actual detail so the quote reflects the work required.

No. It is a planning estimate using rectangular dimensions, weight and an approximate floor layout. It does not reserve a vehicle, send an enquiry or confirm safe loading. Use the quote link or call the team to agree the job.

Stacking starts off. If the goods can safely be stacked, select Yes and enter the permitted number of identical units high, including the bottom unit. The calculation also respects the vehicle height. Different product lines are never stacked on each other.

Yes. Its packing method looks for practical rectangular arrangements; it does not search every possible layout. If it cannot find one, or your load is irregular, request a manual check rather than treating the result as a final rejection.

Availability depends on the location, vehicle, load, equipment and timing. Give us the collection deadline and we will discuss the available arrangement. A page or calculator result is not a live availability or collection-time guarantee.
