Bathgate coverage and response times

Bathgate sits midway between Edinburgh and Glasgow right by junction 4 of the M8, which makes for very fast collections — usually within 30 minutes. Armadale, Blackburn and Whitburn are minutes away, Livingston a short run east, and Linlithgow to the north. The M8 and M9 give direct drives into both cities, while the M74 opens up the route south towards Carlisle and England.

Industries we move every day in Bathgate

Long associated with the motor industry, Bathgate today is a strong logistics and distribution location alongside manufacturing and engineering, retail and trade, and the technology and life-science firms around the Livingston corridor.
