Chase Freight Limited: overnight parcel and pallet distribution from Verwood

Chase Freight Limited is a transport company based at 32 Black Moor Road on the Ebblake Industrial Estate in Verwood, Dorset. Established in 1988, it describes more than three decades of trading in the transport industry and positions itself as a single point of contact for delivery needs, combining parcel, pallet and international distribution under one carrier.

Overnight parcel distribution

The company's core parcel service is designed to move documents and parcels to their destination cost-effectively and on time. It presents an easy-to-use range of delivery services and includes timed, trackable next-day delivery. It also states a specialism in fragile, security and liquid consignments.

National pallet distribution through Pallet Track

For palletised freight, Chase Freight is part of the Pallet Track overnight pallet network, which the company describes as one of the UK's latest and fastest-growing networks. It cites a 267,000 square foot central hub as the basis for next-day and economy pallet services across the UK and worldwide.

International distribution partnerships

International parcel distribution is provided in partnership with APC Overnight and Air Menzies International. International pallets are handled through Pallet Track in partnership with Hellmans Worldwide.

APC Overnight affiliation and tracking tools

Chase Freight is affiliated to APC Overnight, which it describes as the UK's largest overnight parcel network, with more than 100 regional depots and more than one million parcels sorted every month. Customers can track consignments through APC Pinpoint by entering the consignment number and delivery postcode; the map shows the driver's current stop and proximity to the destination. The APC Expect service adds two-hour pre-alerts before delivery.

Technology and operational capabilities

The company lists online consignment processing, full online track and trace, digital signature capture and real-time proof of delivery reporting among its operational tools. It also refers to cargo transportation skills covering transport, logistics, supply chain and support.

Local support and company structure

Chase Freight emphasises a personalised service and close working relationships with customers, presenting itself as the link between its clients and their own customers. It notes that it does not use 0800 numbers and that callers reach staff directly. The company's team page names Glenn Edwards and Graeme Edwards as company directors.
