We have seen some noticeable delays at London Gateway over the last couple of weeks, these delays have intensified today - we are hearing unsubstantiated reports that there is an incident with a lorry on port causing all internal roads to stop, we are waiting for official reasoning.
We have had trucks with 3am VBS slots today still not boxed on with laden containers and reports of long queues outside the port.
As well as this, our hauliers are flagging all empty container drop offs from the port have ceased since 11am this morning. This will mean our hauliers have to travel elsewhere to drop off empty containers which will cause delays with them returning back to the port to collect laden containers.
All of the above will effect delivery performance on all containers from London Gateway, our teams will do their best to keep you informed of the individual deliveries effected. We ask all our customers to be flexible with delivery times during these issues.
Our teams are working closely with our hauliers and the port directly to communicate and rectify these ongoing issues.
