LIQUID TANKER HAULAGE
Logistics service provider specialised in delivering bulk liquids & animal feed across the UK
Liquid Tanker Haulage
Specialist Liquid Tanker Haulage Across the UK
At SLD Logistics, we provide professional liquid tanker haulage services for businesses across the UK. From our base in Cumbria, our specialist fleet operates nationwide, transporting bulk liquid products between refineries, factories, processing facilities, farms and other destinations.
Liquid tanker haulage requires the right combination of specialist equipment, experienced drivers and careful handling. We have built our service around these requirements, providing customers with dependable transport backed by a modern fleet and a strong understanding of the industries we serve. From food-grade refined oils through to crude oils and liquid feed ingredients, we provide safe and efficient transport from collection through to final delivery.
Nationwide Liquid Tanker Transport
Our liquid tanker haulage service covers England, Scotland and Wales, allowing us to support customers with movements throughout the UK. We regularly collect products from refineries and other facilities before transporting them directly to food manufacturers, processing plants, farms and other end users.
Every transport requirement is different, so we work closely with our customers to understand collection times, delivery requirements and site-specific considerations. Our flexible approach enables us to support both regular scheduled movements and individual transport requirements while maintaining the professional standards expected from a specialist tanker operator.
Liquid Tanker Haulage for Food-Grade Oils
A key part of our work involves transporting refined oils used within the UK food production industry. These movements are carried out in accordance with the SCOPA code of practice, helping to protect product quality, hygiene and traceability throughout the transport process.
When working with products intended for food production, cleanliness and careful load management are essential. Our tankers are regularly cleaned, inspected and maintained, while our drivers follow the procedures required for the products they transport. We take product integrity seriously from the moment a tanker arrives for collection through to discharge at the customer's site.
Liquid Tanker Haulage for Animal Feed
Alongside food-grade products, SLD Logistics transports crude oils and liquid ingredients used within animal feed and agricultural supply chains. These movements are undertaken in accordance with TASCC requirements, providing customers with a compliant tanker haulage solution for feed-related products.
We deliver to farms, feed processors and other facilities across the country. Our experience of working with agricultural destinations means we understand that delivery conditions can vary considerably between sites, particularly when moving away from major industrial facilities and into more rural locations.
Bulk Liquid Haulage
SLD Logistics specialises in the nationwide transport of refined oils used in food production. All movements comply with SCOPA guidelines, and our modern fleet ensures reliable, hygienic delivery from refinery to factory across the UK.
Animal Feed Haulage
We handle the transport of crude oils and other products for use in animal feed and industry. All operations meet TASCC standards, with fully equipped tankers providing safe, efficient delivery from source to farm or processor nationwide.
SCOPA and TASCC Compliant Tanker Haulage
Compliance is central to our liquid tanker haulage operation. SLD Logistics works in accordance with both SCOPA and TASCC codes of practice, covering the transportation of food-grade oils and materials used within animal feed production. These recognised standards help maintain safety, hygiene, traceability and product integrity throughout the supply chain.
Careful planning between loads is particularly important when transporting different liquid products. Our team takes the necessary steps to manage tanker cleaning and load planning appropriately, reducing the risk of cross-contamination and ensuring products are transported in line with their individual requirements.
Specialist Liquid Tankers with Hydraulic Discharge Equipment
Our modern tanker fleet is purpose-equipped for bulk liquid haulage. Vehicles feature hydraulic discharge systems incorporating pumps and compressors, giving us the capability to discharge products efficiently at a wide variety of delivery locations.
This equipment provides greater flexibility when working with factories, processing plants, farms and other customer sites where unloading arrangements can differ. Having specialist discharge equipment available on our vehicles allows our drivers to complete deliveries efficiently while meeting the requirements of each individual site.
A Modern and Reliable Tanker Fleet
SLD Logistics has grown from an initial two vehicles into a modern specialist fleet incorporating Scania, Volvo and DAF trucks. Our vehicles are maintained to high standards, with our tankers regularly inspected and cleaned as part of our commitment to providing safe and reliable liquid transport.
Reliability is particularly important in tanker haulage, where a delayed collection or delivery can affect manufacturing schedules, processing operations or agricultural production. We therefore place a strong emphasis on dependable vehicles, professional drivers and effective communication throughout every job.

SLD Logistics was established in 2020 by Stephen Dixon, bringing decades of haulage industry experience into the business. Since then, we have continued to grow our fleet and customer base while maintaining the straightforward, responsive service on which the company was built.

Our team works to provide a liquid tanker haulage service customers can depend on for both regular transport and individual movements.
