  • Supporting Local Prison Rehabilitation Initiatives

    We’re proud to support the local prison rehabilitation programme by helping give unsold materials a new purpose. These would normally go into our secure destruction programme to be recycled, reducing waste and ensuring nothing ends up in landfill.

    It’s incredibly heartwarming to see how donated magazines, yarns, and cottons can be transformed into meaningful projects that support creativity, wellbeing, and rehabilitation within the prison community. These products are generously donated by Hachette Partworks before they go for destruction, and this is a very pleasing part of their environmental programme.

    At Chiltern Transport & Warehousing Limited, we’re always happy to help and support initiatives that make a real difference in our local community.

  • The lights are shining at our Crossing Warehouse

    The lights are shining at our Crossing warehouse. Recently, our new signs have gone up, and both the signage and warehouse lights are now shining brightly.

  • Another great job by our Chiltern team!

    We carried out a delivery into the London DVS zone, where the customer’s trucks aren’t compliant, so we took the trailer into the zone and assisted in the discharge of the trailer, saving them from a potential fine. They brought the tanker to us and their driver went with our driver, Kevin, who made sure everything ran smoothly.

  • KidsOut Support

    We’re really proud to support KidsOut and the incredible work they do. Providing warehousing at our Leighton Buzzard site was a small part of a much bigger effort to help children and families when they need it most.

    It’s a pleasure to be part of the KidsOut supply chain and to work alongside a charity making such a meaningful difference!
