We deliver to all 32 counties of Ireland overnight. Uniquely we can collect from any one point in Ireland and deliver to any other overnight.

This is possible because our network is made up of more than twenty members, with one member in every county on the western seaboard from Donegal to Waterford.

The only places not served always on an overnight basis are some far outlying west coast villages and offshore islands such as Achill Island, Belmullet and Roundstone.

We offer a 2 day service at slightly lower rates at the discretion of the network members.

This enables us to prioritise the overnight service when a shipping space problem arises and 48 hour shipments can be done on the second day without any service failure.

This deferred service is just one of the factors that enable us to provide such a high quality service overall.

We can provide timed delivery services to most towns in Ireland such as:

• Before 10am (B410)
• AM
• PM
• Saturday

This is done for a small extra charge per shipment at the discretion of the members of TPN.

No competitor has the capability of providing timed deliveries to the same degree as TPN because we have member depots in nearly every county in Ireland. Retail deliveries have become a major part of our core business.

We can collect in any part of Ireland and deliver to any part of the UK mainland in 48 hours door to door. Equally of course we can do the reverse- collect anywhere in the UK and delivery anywhere in Ireland in 48 hours.

In fact we do better than this because we can collect 5 PM on day 1 and deliver 9 AM on day 3 – just 40 hours.

This service covers all of the the British Isles except offshore islands, parts of the Scottish Highlands and some remote parts of the West of Ireland.

We offer a 3-4 day service at slightly lower rates at the discretion of the network members.

This enables us to prioritise the premium service freight when a shipping space problem arises and 3-4 day shipments can be done one or 2 days later without any service failure.

This deferred service is just one of the factors that enable us to provide such a high quality service overall.

We can provide timed delivery services to most towns in the UK such as:

• Before 10am (B410)
• AM
• PM
• Saturday

This is done for a small extra charge per shipment at the discretion of the members of TPN.

No competitor has the capability of providing timed deliveries to the same degree as TPN because we have over 80 member depots in the UK and over 20 in Ireland.

TPN provides nationwide delivery services in Ireland to many leading European Road transport companies and we have direct access to the best services across all of Europe.

The European trucks are loaded with exports and unloaded of their imports at the TPN hub in Blanchardstown. So TPN members clients have direct access to these services and we are able to choose the best service/price offering to meet the clients needs.

All of Europe is well served by at least one of our client operators and in most cases more than one.

TPN HQ has staff with many years experience of freight forwarding and their sole function is to provide TPN network members with forwarding service to rival those provided by any international freight forwarders. This enables TPN local members to be a one stop shop for all shippers in their area. So not only can your local TPN member handle your Irish, UK or European deliveries, but they can provide you with the best in worldwide deep sea or airfreight.

It is worth being mindful that the role of a freight forwarder in theory is like the theoretical role of an insurance broker – they should be independent and find you the best deal for you in the market. Unfortunately they are usually tied to an under-writter and their offering to you will be what suits them rather than what is best for you.

So it is with freight forwarders- they will only be interested in putting your cargo on their own services or the services where they have commission deals.

TPN uniquely offers a truly independent service and so will always try to get you the best service/ price offering in the market for you.

One of the core requirements on the TPN network is that members must collect pallets in their network territory that day, if requested to do so by another member before noon. So not only do we deliver overnight, but we will collect from any one of your clients nationwide and get it back to you overnight.

We are unrivalled in our ability to do this in an effective and controlled fashion and to keep the customer informed.

We have a seperate reverse logistics IT module to ensure this is all done efficiently.

Most of our members have capacity to provide warehousing for clients at low cost in the regions and can facilitate late orders for picking and next day delivery nationwide

At the central Hub we can provide “Hub Site Logistics “ – storage where orders can be input into the network delivery system at short notice and with a very low delivery cost because their is no “inward” transport involved. However, space is limited and this does carry a premium rate for storage but well worth it for fast moving product

We also have very large storage capacity adjacent to the central hub at very competitive prices, offering most of the same advantages but while storage is a bit cheaper, delivery from this is a bit more expensive - it would suit slower moving stock.

• We provide, adjacent to the central hub, a full pick and pack service.

• We provide a wide variety of order fulfilment services, re-labelling, quality control and re-packing.

• We provide low level technical services for several client’s projects.

Part of our central storage area at the Hub site is a customs bonded area.

We provide container unloading, palletising, reporting to Customs and full customs clearance service for non EU imports.

We can store uncleared product on site – subject only to Customs rules for forfeiture of uncleared shipments.
