Alternative Freight Services

Alternative Freight Services was founded in 1994 by its Managing Director, Mr. Tony Bates, and the business has prospered with a simple business philosophy in "delivering your expectations". The services and benefits provided by Alternative Freight Services go well beyond the norm and are designed to add value on an on-going basis. This explains wh... y so many of our clients have been with us since the start, and see our business as a normal extension of theirs. Freight management is a complicated business, not because it has to be, but because of the many factors and parties which contribute to its complexity. We like to think that all transport solutions which are based on service quality and cost effectiveness is not too much to ask for, and that our success is dependent in delivering these solutions to your business. Our Mission Statement is indicative of what we strive for, "to provide our clients with more than simply freight management advice. We are committed to assisting in the implementation of our recommendations so that what is planned, is delivered and performs to expectations". To facilitate this, we employ technically skilled individuals that have many years experience, that not only develop an association with our clients but get to understand their key business drivers and long term objectives. The solutions that are derived today can be built upon for the needs of tomorrow. The keystone to our success is the art of listening to what the customer wants and delivering a personalised solution in a timely manner that meets to exact requirements. This is not to say we don't offer advice, but importantly we outline the options available and guide you with the selection. Once made, we continue to assist with the implementation and then manage with you your transport requirements on an on-going basis.Read More
