COMPANY HISTORY
Established in 1971 in Grimsby the company moved to North Killingholme next to Immingham Docks in 1974. The family business was heavily involved in the transporting timber from the ports on the River Humber and Trent. As Immingham grew to be a major Roll on Roll off facility the company were able to offer fully delivered services for this traffic. In addition the large volumes of steel coming through
the port involved the company in a wide range of activities to service this industry.
They were also involved the storage of high grade pine from Finland and various bulk commodities. Since that early period it has specialised in the storage of off-site goods for oil refineries and as a result operates a constant delivery service to the refinery.
Another side of the business has been the development of the warehousing and fork lift truck operation on the Immingham docks. It is currently operating 10,000 square metres of warehousing for Carlbom Shipping on the Henderson Quay. The company operate a series of fork lift trucks ranging from 3 to 32 tonnes, the latter specialising in specialist steel levelling equipment.
The transport fleet consists of 44-tonne tractor units operating a varied selection of articulated trailers consisting of curtain-sided, well-deck trailers, skeletal container trailers, pin trailer with twist lock accessories etc.
The company has recently begun a six-wheel rigid operation to give all round flexibility.
Although ABC (Grimsby) Ltd. have always specialised in the transporting of timber along the Humber ports, they are able to transport any general cargo and collect a large range of goods for export from all ports of the UK.
