Birchington coverage and response times

A driver can usually reach a Birchington-on-Sea collection within 30 minutes, with Westgate and Margate 5 to 10 minutes away and Herne Bay around 15. We run straight onto the A28 and the A299 Thanet Way, linking to the M2 for fast access to Canterbury, Ashford and London, plus the Channel ports at Dover for international handovers.

Industries we move every day in Birchington

Thanet combines a busy seaside and hospitality economy with strong agriculture and horticulture across the surrounding farmland. We carry fresh produce and food-industry goods, retail and care-sector supplies, manufacturing and electronics parts, and urgent documents and samples for the many small businesses along the north Kent coast.
