Higham Ferrers is a historic Nene Valley market town in North Northamptonshire, sitting on high ground above the River Nene next to Rushden and Irthlingborough. It has good road links in every direction: the A6 bypass that opened in 2003 carries traffic north towards Kettering and south towards Bedford, while the A45 dual carriageway connects the town west to Northampton and the M1 and east towards the A14 and Cambridge. That position makes Higham Ferrers an easy place for us to serve from our Northampton yard.

Easy access via the A6 and A45
Because Higham Ferrers sits where the A6 and A45 meet, loads can move out to the wider motorway network quickly. The A45 feeds straight into the M1 to the west and the A14 to the east, so whether goods are heading to the Midlands, the ports or the South East, we can plan a sensible route. For oversized items we arrange the proper notifications and escort cover.

Higham Ferrers haulage FAQs
Do you deliver to units around Rushden Lakes and the A45?
Yes. We make regular runs along the A45 corridor serving Higham Ferrers, Rushden and the retail and trade units in the area, with tail-lift and hiab offload where it is needed.
Can you handle both small and large loads here?
We can. From a single pallet on the network through to full artic loads and heavier one-off movements, we size the vehicle to the job rather than charging for space you do not need.
