Regular HK customers requiring express transport in the building and civil engineering sector, mainly for express deliveries to construction sites.
- Building, civil engineering and public works companies, whether international, national or regional.
- Companies operating in the finishing sector, such as carpenters, joiners, roofers, bricklayers, painters, electricians, plumbers and HVAC companies, as well as their subcontractors and suppliers.
- Equipment rental companies, who want to provide a fast, high-quality goods transport service, without having to manage the required means of transport. Increasingly, their customers are looking for equipment to be made available on site, so that they can focus on the job in hand, rather than on transporting or returning goods.
- Sample analysis companies are regular customers of HK Courses, and it's usually an LCV that transports these samples directly to the analysis laboratory, with regular shuttles to other sites if necessary.
- HK Courses also works for shippers of materials used (tiles, insulation, heating appliances, etc.) on construction sites, whether they be direct factories, or intermediaries, who may be wholesalers or traders who want to control the quality of their product, including transport.
- Do-it-yourself superstores regularly have transport needs, particularly for the construction industry, whether customized or urgent, depending on contingencies and constraints such as shipment quality, production delays or vehicle availability, whether through freight forwarders or fleet operators.
Express transport services for the construction industry
HK is organized to meet the varied requirements of professionals in the construction industry. Because of the complexity of these sites, where urgent deliveries of materials are required, but also because of the sometimes colossal financial sums involved, industrialists in the construction sector call on HK Courses' dedicated urgent transport service. The cost of stopping, or even just slowing down, a project makes the immediate execution of certain shipments linked to these sites critical.
The most common cases are as follows:
Transport of spare parts and maintenance: equipment is complex and expensive, and has to operate at high intensity in harsh environments... in the event of a breakdown, parts can come from far away and have to arrive very quickly.
HK Courses takes care of the immediate transport of the part and its delivery to the planned destination, at the lowest possible cost. These transports, with delivery in stride in specially adapted vehicles (with tailgate, if necessary), ensure rapid repair and continuation of the work.
Transport of samples: soil, liquids, gases or other, taken on site for analysis and immediate transport to the appropriate analysis laboratory. Environmental constraints are increasingly stringent on construction sites, and there's no question of taking risks of pollution or contamination.
HK Courses makes available, on a spot basis or as part of organized and regularly scheduled shuttles, suitable means of transport, generally light vehicles, which guarantee the integrity of the samples, their rapid pick-up and delivery to the right destination in the shortest possible time. Our drivers, whether working for our regular subcontractors or employed by HK, are fully trained, in particular for ADR transport of dangerous goods.
HK can transport materials, joinery, various materials and equipment, particularly air-conditioning and heating equipment. Depending on the hazards of production, transport and sometimes operational failures, these materials have to be transported urgently to enable the site to continue. HK manages the rapid pick-up of the goods or equipment concerned, their transport without any break in the load, and the scheduling of on-site appointments for the various specialized building and civil engineering companies involved in these projects. Indeed, in addition to delivery speed, it is often necessary to provide handling equipment for unloading, or teams to unload or install equipment as soon as it arrives, and delays can be a source of considerable additional costs.
Express transport services for the construction industry in HGVs
Materials, joinery, other miscellaneous equipment: These types of goods require dedicated transport by HGV. HK manages the rapid pick-up of the goods or equipment concerned, their rapid routing and the scheduling of appointments on site. The various companies in the building sector working on construction sites all require customized transport, sometimes by express delivery, from the site manager to the subcontracted carpenter.
As with urgent transport services, it is often necessary to provide handling facilities for unloading, or teams to unload or install equipment as soon as it arrives. PL can be organized in "urgent" mode, or in "standard" mode, where sensitivity to transport costs is much greater, and there is a degree of flexibility on the pick-up date, or advance notice.
Express transport services for worksites, such as shuttles / dedicated means of transport
Transport of samples: soil, liquids, gases or others, taken on site for analysis, for express and secure transport to the appropriate analysis laboratory.
HK Courses provides regularly scheduled shuttles with suitable vehicles, usually cars, to guarantee the integrity of the samples, pick-up on the agreed day and time, and delivery at the agreed time.
Rental equipment: our customers also include rental companies for whom we provide transport services using adapted equipment and drivers trained in handling.
