Final mile logistics – Getting your goods delivered on time

Goods destined for delivery come from all over the world, and final mile logistics plays a crucial role as the last, and often most complex, stage of the supply chain. At Platinum Transport Solutions, we specialise in managing this vital phase to ensure your products are delivered safely, efficiently, and on schedule — providing peace of mind from start to finish.

Our expertise lies in handling large, heavy, and bulky items that require careful planning and attention to detail to reach their final destination without issue. For example, consider a US-based company manufacturing air conditioning units. Their products are shipped via container vessel to a UK port. Once the container arrives and is cleared through customs, it is collected either by our team or another haulier and transported to our secure consolidation centre. Here, the goods are stored safely until the delivery schedule is confirmed. At the appropriate time, our experienced team carefully loads the items onto our specialised vehicles — including those equipped with Hiab and Moffett forklifts for efficient offloading — before delivering them to the customer’s final location.

This last leg of the journey is precisely what defines final mile logistics — the essential link between distribution hubs and end customers. We understand the unique challenges it presents, including tight delivery windows, access restrictions, and the need for precision handling, which is why our dedicated fleet and skilled personnel are prepared to manage every detail with professionalism and care.

By choosing Platinum Transport Solutions for your final mile logistics, you’re partnering with a company committed to excellence, backed by FORS Gold accreditation and years of experience delivering complex and sensitive goods across London and South East UK.
