Local Services

In addition to our core freight and pallet services, to and from the North of Scotland, Northwards has added several local services in response to a need within the communities within which we operate.

Commercial Vehicle Maintenance

From our VOSA approved workshop and testing facility in Lerwick, Northwards offers repair and maintenance services to a wide range of local businesses.

Skip Hire

In Lerwick, Northwards can offer a wide range of waste disposal options including skip hire and waste disposal services for a wide range of local businesses and visiting vessels.

Personnel Logistics

Set up initially to support vessel mobilisations and crew changes, Northwards has the capability to efficiently move contract personnel between airports, hotels, vessels and worksites.

Warehousing and Storage

We recognise how important it is for some of our customers to have access to safe and secure storage facilities for their freight. As a result, we provide external, internal, rack storage and lay down areas to suit a range of needs.

Crane Trucks

If you don’t have a forklift or a crane then why not hire a self dischange vehicle from the Orkney or Shetland depots.
