About 256 Logistics

Over a decade of moving cargo safely across the UK and Europe — meet the team and the values driving us.

Our story

From one truck to a trusted UK fleet

Founded in 2022 in Doncaster, 256 Logistics began with a single rigid truck and a promise: to handle every load like our own. Today we run a modern, fully insured fleet across the UK and into Europe — but the promise hasn't changed.

We invest in our drivers, our trucks and our tech, so businesses of every size can rely on us for freight that arrives on time, intact and accounted for.
