Background

Based in Redisham, a small village nestled deep in the Suffolk countryside just south of Beccles, Terry Seaman Transport was born in 1978.  At this time, there was only one lorry: a Leyland Buffalo.  In the years since, the business has expanded greatly, and now operates a very modern fleet of Foden tipping trucks.  The core of the business lies with grain haulage from local farms to the mills and docks.  Much of the work is undertaken within East Anglia and the Home Counties, although long-distance runs, e.g. to Manchester or Liverpool, have become far more frequent in recent years.

Importantly, Terry Seaman Transport is a member of AIC.  This means that, according to the association's strict code of practice,  every load carried must be recorded, along with details of vehicle cleansing and hygiene measures taken.  The 'vehicle trailer journal' system is employed for this purpose.

Over the years, developments in marketing techniques and in the markets themselves have led to significant changes within the trade as a whole.  Grain haulage is now a year-round concern.

Terry Seaman Transport offers a quality service with full traceability, and has a policy of continual assessment in order to ensure full sustainability.
