Who Are We?

One Man,
One Wagon

Vincents Haulage started over 60 years ago with one man and one wagon. Today, with tens of thousands of successful deliveries behind us, the team has built a leading and well-known name within the industry — and it's still the same family running it.

We offer services for one-off jobs, large logistical movements and contract haulage alike, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, with reliability, safety and low cost at the forefront of the business. Customers use a full range of logistics services: pick-ups, flat beds, hiab wagons and artics.

We pride ourselves on total and complete compliance with health and safety — so much so that we use a specialised external auditor who comes into the business to make sure everyone and everything is compliant to the utmost level. All our wagons are fitted with handrails, and our hiabs with inertia reels.

"Holding down numerous substantial contracts with large PLCs for over 25 years."

The Fleet

No Job Too Small,
No Job Too Large

One of the first hauliers in the North West to put a hiab wagon on the road. We pride ourselves on vehicle presentation and carrying out jobs to the highest level — which benefits us, but more importantly, our customers.

Flat Bed Wagons

A full fleet of reliable DAFs, able to carry any load up to 44 GVW. Our wagons ensure your delivery makes its destination safely and on time, every time.

Hiab Wagons

A range of lorry-mounted cranes, including a 66t Fassi and an 85t Hiab with front stabiliser legs. One vehicle that can take on the duty of three — the environmental and cost efficiency of that is what keeps customers returning year after year.

Team Haulier

One of a number of hauliers contracted to complete a transport service, in a syndicate or customer-managed system.

Abnormal Loads

Loads Others
Turn Down

Abnormal load work planned and moved with the same health and safety discipline as every other job on the fleet — and with the crane capacity to load and unload it ourselves at both ends.

Planned Properly

Route, permits and timings worked out before the wheels turn, not on the day.

Self-Loading Capability

66t and 85t cranes on our own chassis — no waiting on a third-party lift at either end.

Externally Audited Safety

A specialised external auditor checks compliance across the business, not a self-declared policy.

SILVER

FORS

FORS Silver Approved

Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme certification — gained after an intense four-hour external audit covering everything from health and safety policies and vulnerable road users through to fuel usage and maintenance plans.

Why Vincents

Sixty Years Doesn't
Happen By Accident

FORS Silver, Externally Audited

Silver certification, ID 003693, earned through a four-hour external audit — plus a specialised auditor who comes into the business on an ongoing basis. Independently verified, not self-declared.

Still The Same Family

Anthony Vincent has run the company since 1999, with Joshua and Nicholas now on the board alongside him. You deal with the people whose name is on the wagon.

Heavy Lift In-House

66t Fassi and 85t Hiab cranes on our own new chassis, lifting 11.7 ton at 6m out to 4.1 ton at 16.1m. One vehicle doing the job of three, with no third-party lift to wait on.

Trusted With PLC Contracts

Over 25 years holding down substantial contracts with large PLCs — work that isn't handed to a haulier without a proven, auditable track record.

Job Vacancies

Driving For Vincents

Most haulage firms aren't short of work — they're short of drivers. If you want a family-run outfit with a fleet that's properly looked after and kit worth driving, get in touch about current vacancies.
