Founded in 2018 by Tom Rathmell, Rathmell Transport Ltd was created with a clear purpose: to deliver transport with the professionalism, pride, and attention to detail that the industry deserves. After a long career in transport, Tom recognised that service standards were beginning to fall short of what customers should expect. Rathmell Transport was built to challenge that decline and raise the standard from day one.
What began with one vehicle, a strong work ethic, and a genuine passion for the industry has grown into a trusted transport business serving customers across multiple sectors. While the company has developed and diversified, the principles behind it have remained unchanged: quality over compromise, communication without excuses, and service delivered with care.
Every driver, vehicle, and movement reflects the standards Rathmell Transport Ltd was founded on. Our team is carefully selected not only for skill and experience, but for attitude, pride, and a shared commitment to doing the job properly. For us, transport is not simply about moving freight; it is about protecting our customers’ reputation at every stage of the journey.
Our Ethos
Our ethos is simple: transport should be delivered with pride. At Rathmell Transport Ltd, we believe that every vehicle on the road, every driver on site, and every delivery completed says something about the standard of the business behind it.
That is why we invest in high-specification, well-maintained, immaculate vehicles and place equal importance on the people trusted to operate them. Our drivers are professional, presentable, and carefully selected for their attitude as much as their ability.
