Mike B.

Logistic Manager DBA

We used The Freight Centre as a courier for an urgent delivery from Liverpool to Newcastle.

The team were extremely helpful and gave us different options. Our business depended on the package being there on time and TFC delivered BIG time!

Monica

Business Owner

Working with TFC was a pleasure! We contacted them as we needed 10 pallets delivering fairly quickly, and we also needed some guidance on packaging it correctly.

The whole process was seamless, and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. In the past, we have used larger couriers, but these guys made us feel a lot more valued as a customer and were very responsive to all our request.
