Scotland to Ireland. New freight route launched by Redhead international

Redhead International, one of the UK’s leading logistics companies, has announced the introduction of a new daily direct round trip service from Scotland to Ireland, as the company continues to meet increased demand for its freight services.

The new service will leave the company’s Scottish depot each night loaded with groupage, which has been collected throughout the day by the domestic collection fleet.

It will travel through the night arriving in Redhead’s Belfast depot in the early hours. Northern Irish cargo will be off-loaded and the trailer will continue on to the Dublin depot arriving early morning.

The new service means that cargo from Scotland can be delivered into all areas of Northern Ireland and some parts of the Republic of Ireland the next day. Redhead will also be able to deliver to the Belfast and Dublin city areas the next morning.

On the return leg Redhead’s trailer will leave Dublin for Belfast to load groupage from Northern Ireland bound for Scotland. The vehicle will then arrive at the company’s Scottish depot early next morning, providing the same next day link between Ireland and Scotland.

Austin Duffy, marketing manager at Redhead International, said: “We are continuing our commitment to expand our operation to meet the ever-increasing diverse needs of our customers. By adding this new route from Scotland to Ireland, and vice versa, we will provide customers with a very quick and effective overnight service.”

Redhead now boasts scheduled services to over 40 countries across Europe, North Africa, the Middle East and the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) countries.
