We would like to take this opportunity to say a thank you to all of our staff, stakeholders, suppliers, partners and customers for your support during 2015. We are looking forward to 2016 and working with all of you next year. Season’s greetings from all of us and we wish you a happy Christmas and a prosperous New Year.
Earlier in 2015 we announced a major investment project for South Yorkshire and the immediate Rotherham region. We have now completed both phases of our new container railport facility in Rotherham in between Junctions 33 and 34 on the M1. Please contact us should you require any information regarding the Newell & Wright service.
It is now over 41 years ago since the formation of the Newell & Wright Group when Frank Newell and Paul Wright established the business. In those early days, we were a very small general haulage company, operating from rented premises. Over the following years we have grown substantially in size, resulting in the company changing premises three times before moving to the current 6.5 acre freehold site at Tinsley, Sheffield in 1987. We thought we would share some images with you from our earlier years.
The same year NWT Freight Forwarding was formed enabling us to offer our customers a variety of other freight solutions. These days, the Newell & Wright group has an annual turnover of in excess of £50 million and an excellent financial status.
We employ over 300 personnel, many of whom have remained with the company as we have expanded. We can attribute our growth and success to delighting our customers, old and new, with the value for money and excellent all round services that we provide.

Due to ongoing expansion during 2015, Newell & Wright Group is pleased to announce the addition of six new trucks to our fleet all being 65 plate registered and delivered complete with the NWT livery and branding. We went for 2 x SCANIA R 450 trucks, 2 x MAN TGX trucks and 2 x Mercedes Actros trucks to complement our existing large fleet for extra capacity in our container haulage services.
2 x SCANIA R 450 - The Scania R-series is designed to meet the highest demands in the world regarding fuel economy, driver appeal and reliability. Its strong exterior styling is an impressive sight on the road. The beautiful outside is fully matched by a new, exclusive interior with outstanding driver comfort and a wide array of colour and material options.
2 x MAN TGX - The ideal solution for long-haul transport In national and international long-haul transport, efficiency and productivity are the key factors that will enable us to succeed in a global competition. The MAN TGX long-haul transport vehicle sets new standards in heavy-duty series and meets the most stringent requirements for comfort, economy and dynamics.
2 x Mercedes Actros - This addition to the Mercedes-Benz Commercial Vehicle range puts everything that has gone before it in the shade. Its modern cab offers the driver maximum comfort whilst delivering exceptional fuel economy. The new Mercedes Actros is now easier and safer to drive, and more possibly more outstandingly capable than any other big truck that from Mercedes that has gone before.

Newell & Wright are undertaking a long term restoration of a Volvo F88 Truck. The Volvo F88 was a heavy vehicle introduced in 1964. It was a particularly advanced vehicle for its time, with an all-steel-constructed cab at a time when some British manufacturers were still producing wood-framed with alloy panelling vehicles. Also, unusually for the late 1960s, it was available with a sleeper cab with additional space behind the driver where a bunk was fitted.
You can see by the images that we are now working on the can unit with a number of replacement panels and refurbishments progress. This is a long term restoration and we will be providing updates in the coming months with further developments. We hope that you enjoy the images. Contact Newell & Wright Group on 01142 444836 and speak to one of the team. Alternatively you can contact us via e-mail on sales@newellwright.co.uk.
Keep an eye out for our prize winning show truck which will be found out and about across the UK with its distinctive livery and number plate “1 NWT”. The Volvo FH model truck has undergone extensive paint work and detailed finishing to promote the brand of Newell & Wright in its full glory.
We hope that you like the images and the attention to detail that can be found on the Volvo FH. We take the truck to shows and events as often as we can so look out for it with its distinctive blue and white livery and unmistakable number plate. Contact Newell & Wright Group on 01142 444836 and speak to one of the team. Alternatively you can contact us via e-mail on sales@newellwright.co.uk.
Following on from our recent expansion into our Rail Port facility located next to the M1 in Sheffield, we are pleased to announce a significant increase in our holding of valuable stock for TEU containers including both 20ft and 40ft options. We can provide new and used options for every type of shipping container to suit your requirements.
We can offer a wide range of containers including standard containers, high-cube containers, hard-top containers, open-top containers, flat rack containers, platform containers, ventilated containers, insulated containers, refrigerated containers, bulk containers and tank containers.

In the last few months Newell & Wright have been acquiring new plant and equipment as additions to our ever expanding fleet. The recent investment has seen the introduction of 12 MAN truck and a Konecranes SMV Container Lift Truck.
We have just recently increased our container storage area 10 fold with a new location next to the M1 near Sheffield. The new facility has direct access and links to an onsite rail port which will provide us with the ability to store over 1,000 shipping containers. The 12 MAN trucks are already in usage with the final branding almost completed with our trademark Logo and colour scheme. More investments are on the way during 2015 so visit this page again next month to find out what we are planning for the next 6 months of the year.
Newell & Wright is pleased announce a major investment project for South Yorkshire and the immediate Rotherham region. We have spent the last 6 months implementing a new container rail Port facility in Rotherham in between Junctions 33 and 34 on the M1.
In total there are six sidings ranging from 300 to 400 metres allowing for a significant level of rolling stock and container handling. Our investment has seen the introduction of reinforced concrete standings, container loaders and a hardstanding circuit for our fleet to be loaded and unloaded. There will be further developments at the site through the summer as we see an increase in demand for container freight being transported on the UK’s rail network. The Rotherham rail port is well placed near the main UK motorway (M1) in the centre of the country so we are expecting to be very busy in the coming months.
Due to recent expansion Newell & Wright have several vacancies for HGV1 Class 1 drivers based in the Sheffield region to operate from our central location.
We employ over 300 personnel, many of whom have remained with the company as we have expanded. We can attribute our growth and success to delighting our customers, old and new, with the value for money and excellent all round services that we provide.
With Newell & Wright being centrally located in the UK we can offer tail lift services for delivery and collection of freight where there are no other means of loading or unloading. Ideally your requirements are regular and frequent with load sizes ranging from pallets to unusual dimensions and shapes in certain instances. Our system is ideal for scenarios whereby you do not have a fork or reach truck at the departure or destination location.
In most cases we will offer a pallet delivery, unloading and loading service for standard size pallets which offer 4-way access and are normally less than 1000kg in weight. For unusual loads we can still offer Tail lift Deliveries & Collections. For more information regarding Newell & Wright please contact us on 01142 444836 and speak to one of the team. Alternatively you can contact us via e-mail on sales@newellwright.co.uk.

2015 will see a number of investments and developments at our locations in the UK including plant, machinery, building, staff, training and significant investment is special projects which have not yet started. We have several projects at drawing board level which will also take us beyond the next 12 months into 2016 as we continue to expand.
