DAVID BRATT & SONS (HAULAGE) LTD
David Bratt & Sons (Haulage) Ltd, was formed in the 1950s by the late David Bratt. The company has expanded from a one-man, one vehicle business, to a major player in the haulage industry. We initially provided haulage services to civil engineers, builders, and quarry operators.
Over the years David Bratt diversified the services the company could offer to cater for the changing needs of existing and new customers. Services added included flatbed, curtain side, forklift and crane equipped vehicles. A warehouse was also added to provide a complete handling and distribution service throughout the UK.

HOW FORS ACCREDITATION SUPPORTS YOUR PROJECT
For developers and civil engineering firms, choosing a transport provider is about more than moving materials from one location to another. It is also about reducing risk and meeting project requirements.
A FORS Silver-accredited operator demonstrates a commitment to driver training and operational standards. This can be particularly valuable when working on projects that require evidence of compliance during supplier approval or tender processes. By working with David Bratt & Sons (Haulage) Ltd, customers can be confident that transport services are delivered by fully qualified operators who understand the demands of modern construction and infrastructure projects.
QUARRY AND AGGREGATE TRANSPORT EXPERTISE
The construction supply chain, from quarries and builders' merchants to on-site contractors, depends on reliable transport to keep projects running on schedule. When deliveries slip, the knock-on effect across labour and follow-on trades can be immediate and costly. Reliable road haulage services help ensure stone, sand, aggregates, and other construction materials arrive safely and efficiently at their destination.
Delivering to an active site demands more than just turning up on time. Experienced drivers understand the access restrictions, unloading conditions, site protocols, and safety expectations that come with a working environment.
When comparing haulage companies, it is worth looking beyond cost alone. Factors such as fleet capability, operator qualifications, industry accreditations, site experience, and communication can all contribute to a smoother delivery process.
As a long-established, family-run business, David Bratt & Sons (Haulage) Ltd has built lasting relationships by providing dependable service and delivering on its promises. That reputation continues to support customers across Manchester and throughout the UK. Businesses requiring hiab hire can also benefit from specialist lifting support on sites where cranes or unloading equipment may not be readily available. This can help reduce delays and improve efficiency during material deliveries.
Our experienced team is ready to help with bulk material deliveries and dependable transport for construction projects of any size. Contact us today to discuss your requirements and request a quotation.
