TNT extends Thetford depot
The expanded depot, which includes 21 new loading bays, significantly increases TNT’s capacity to handle more and more parcels and consignments. The depot will be able to increase its volumes by about 3,000 to 8,000 deliveries a day, securing its future and that of the 160 employees who work at Thetford.
The construction work included building a new mezzanine floor and a further 21 delivery doors. It comes after the depot’s vehicle maintenance unit underwent a £400,000 refurbishment.
Alistair Cochrane, Managing Director TNT Express Services UK & Ireland, said TNT was now fully equipped to meet the needs of its customers across the region. "This secures both our future in Thetford and that of the employees for many years to come. It has been long overdue and gives us 21 extra doors and the capacity for growth in the future.
"Thetford is our fifth largest delivery depot across the UK and we have got to the point where we need to operate more vehicles and doors. There are 5,000 deliveries a day and this gives us the capacity to expand on this by another 3,000 in the future" concluded Cochrane.
