A family-run carrier operating from the Anglo-Scottish border for forty-five years. Considered, dependable, fully insured under RHA conditions of carriage.
Combined industry experience across the directorship and consultancy.
Serving the UK road transport industry from the Anglo-Scottish border.
Continuous despatch for time-critical and contracted distribution work.

A family-run haulier, built around the long view.
EWT Distribution is based in Berwick-upon-Tweed, on the England-Scotland border. We provide road transport, haulage and freight distribution to customers on both sides of the line and right across the United Kingdom.
Three generations of the Thompson family run the business. We are members of the Road Haulage Association, fully insured under current conditions of carriage, and operate twenty-four hours a day when the work requires it.
The point of a family business in this industry is straightforward: the same names answer the phone now that answered it ten years ago, and the same names will answer it ten years from now. That continuity is most of the value.
Four capabilities, refined over forty-five years.
We don't list everything we could conceivably do — we list what we do well. Each capability below reflects a discipline our customers rely on, year after year.

Contract Haulage
Ongoing distribution work for businesses that need a regular, dependable carrier embedded in their planning. Adequately equipped to manage most UK transport contracts.
"What you want from a haulier, really, is the absence of drama. Forty-five years of quietly getting on with the work."
The standards we hold ourselves to, and have done since 1979.
Dependability
The point of a haulage partner is that they show up. Our customers organise their own businesses around our reliability — we don't take that lightly.
Continuity
This is a family business in the literal sense. The same names answer the phone now that answered it ten years ago, and that consistency is most of the value.
Protection
Every consignment moves under the current RHA conditions of carriage. The legal and insurance protections are as serious as the operational ones.
"Reliable, honest, and the driver always phones ahead. We've used EWT for years and they've never let us down on a delivery window."
"From the border, to anywhere in Britain — by lunchtime if it needs to be."
