In August 1969, Tony and Anne Page set up Overland Transport at Billinghay in the heart of rural Lincolnshire. In 1994, their son Robert joined them, maintaining the true family-run spirit of the operation. Operating a modern fleet of three 41-ton articulated lorries, we provide a dedicated driver-accompanied service, specialising in temperature-controlled operations between the UK and France. Family-run businesses are not shackled with the procedural formalities associated with larger concerns and this means that Overland can pride itself on giving a first rate service to all of its customers and be totally committed to improving it wherever possible. Having been in partnership with some customers for 28 years, we have learned to listen to what they need and to adapt our operation accordingly. We fit in with them whereas it is all too often the other way around when dealing with the larger, less personal transport groups. Our success is based on having such business partnerships. By providing a reliable communications infrastructure - all drivers can be contacted at any time anywhere in Europe by mobile 'phone - our customers can have up-to-the-minute information on the whereabouts of their goods at any given time, leaving them free to concentrate on other areas of their business
