Light Haulage vs Full Haulage: What’s Right for Your Load
The terms “light haulage,” “man and van,” and “haulage” get used interchangeably — but they describe different categories of service. We operate light haulage and courier services from Seaham, County Durham, covering the North East and UK-wide.
What Is Light Haulage?
Light haulage covers movement using vehicles up to 3.5 tonnes gross vehicle weight. In practice: standard vans (Transit, Sprinter), Luton vans, and Luton vans with tail lifts. Our SR7 Transport light haulage services operate in this category.
