ADR Transport

At Transcentral we offer specialist safe storage and transportation of dangerous goods.

Our staff are fully proficient and experienced in handling ADR requests to ensure the safe transport of hazardous and dangerous goods that have special requirements for collection, loading and unloading.

When dangerous goods are transported there are of course many different risks involved. This means that any problems could have an impact both directly and indirectly, which makes the transport of hazardous materials a process that has to be managed carefully.

The definition of ADR

ADR is the name of the European treaty regarding dangerous goods. The treaty contains regulations for traffic regarding packaging, securing of loads, and labelling of dangerous goods.  ADR is an abbreviation for “The European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road.” The international term ADR is so widely used in the transport industry that almost anyone in the industry understands what is meant, regardless of their country of origin.
