Palletised Distribution Services » Expect Distribution

With our flexible approach and 130 strong vehicle fleet, coupled with the extensive resource of the Palletline network you can rely on us to find the perfect pallet delivery solution for you.

Local delivery solutions

With our own vehicles, we load pallets at source to be transported to our head office. Here, they'll be unloaded in the warehouse, with goods sorted for distribution where necessary. Many of our customers require daily collections, but we understand the need for flexibility - there’s also full provision for a less frequent service.

A large number of our customers are located in West Yorkshire, eg. Bradford, Halifax, Leeds and Wakefield. We do however cater for a wide range of locations, regularly providing services outside of these areas. Let us know what you need, and we can build bespoke packages tailored to suit your requirements.

Expect Distribution provides reliable palletised distribution UK, offering tailored solutions for businesses of all sizes. Based in Leeds, we specialise in palletised distribution Leeds, ensuring efficient and flexible delivery services throughout the region. Our expertise extends across West Yorkshire, making us a trusted partner for palletised distribution Yorkshire, with full visibility, real-time tracking, and seamless customer service for every shipment.

Part of the Palletline network

Do you need to be sure of an efficient method of distribution across the country? We have you covered. Working with the Palletline network, we offer an innovative and seamless solution for countrywide delivery.

Here’s how it works: we transport your pallets to one of the the Palletline hub in Birmingham. There, they are offloaded overnight, ready to be loaded for ongoing delivery in the morning. For maximum efficiency, we reload with goods to transport back to our warehouses.

There are areas where we cannot guarantee next day delivery. However, you’ll always have full knowledge of each shipment: every time you input a job for collection, you’re given a specific time of delivery, either for the next day or for economy delivery within 2 days. For a small additional cost, you also have the option to choose for a delivery to be made at a specific time of day. Whatever you choose, it’s always within your control.

Every choice we make is based on what is necessary to our customer.

Our planning process

We start by gathering all of the information we need to tailor the best package for your needs. It’s important for us to have a clear picture of your business in order to plan for the most efficient use of our facilities. When this is done, you will then meet with our Sales team to discuss all of the available options. The next step sets out your bespoke package, with a proposal document covering the details of your requirements. This will include any company benefits and the tariff, and is always created on an individual basis for each client.

Real time information via an online customer dashboard.
Consignment scanning from point of collection.
Consignment ETA sent via SMS directly to your customer.
Electronic signature capture providing real time proof of delivery via our online portal Motion
