We’re really excited for next week, when our Managing Director, Richard Wilkes, will represent R Wilkes Transport & Storage Ltd at The Great British Energy – Nuclear & Rolls-Royce SMR UK Supplier Conference.

We’re delighted and privileged that our company has been recognised and selected to attend. With more than 1,000 organisations registering their interest, we’re particularly pleased to have received an invitation.

Richard is looking forward to meeting the Rolls-Royce SMR team, connecting with fellow UK suppliers and building new relationships across the nuclear supply chain.

At R Wilkes Transport & Storage Ltd, we’re always exploring how our transport, storage and logistics expertise can support organisations with reliable, professional solutions. We’re excited to discover the opportunities ahead.

See you there!

There's definitely a chill in the air on those early starts now, which can only mean one thing...

Whether they're out on the road, in the warehouse, or around the yard, our legendary blue bobble hats are once again becoming an essential part of the uniform!

🚛 When London traffic says no… R Wilkes finds another way! 🦆

Today’s delivery into Central London came with the usual challenge: 2+ hours of queuing traffic.

But at R Wilkes Transport & Storage Ltd, we pride ourselves on thinking outside the box to keep our customers serviced and deliveries moving on time.

So, when the roads are all quacked up, there’s only one solution…

🦆🚢 Welcome to our latest quackasition: The Thames Insulation Ferry!

Road, warehouse… or apparently river, we’ll always do our best to find a solution. 😂
