Salts Mill tenants, Dockfield Road units and the Market Square shops
Salts Mill holds galleries, shops, restaurants and offices under one roof, and a drop there works best when the recipient has said which door and which floor. The building is large and the visitor car park is off Salts Mill Road, so an exact drop point and entrance saves real time. Dockfield Road is simpler: business units with vehicle access, where boxes come off the tailgate onto the trolley and go straight in.
The town-centre shops sit around Market Square and Well Croft, which are pedestrian, inside a loop of one-way roads, so a delivery there needs its approach and its nearest legal stop planned rather than guessed. Tell us the side door or service yard your suppliers already use, and that is where the van heads.
How a Shipley business delivery is set up
- For anything going into Salts Mill, give the recipient's name, the floor and the entrance they want used
- Dockfield Road units usually let the van stop at the door, so a multi-box consignment is unloaded by hand onto the trolley and wheeled in
- For a shop on Market Square or in the Arndale Centre, name the side door or loading point your suppliers use
- The load space is 3.4m long, so worktops, display boards and shelving lengths lie flat inside
- Send the goods-in hours at the far end, so a unit that only receives in the morning is booked early

Business & Trade Deliveries in Shipley: your questions
Can you deliver into Salts Mill?
Yes. Tell us the business, the floor and the entrance they want used, and give a contact number for the day. The building is big, and the name of the right door matters more than the postcode.
Can you move a pallet of stock?
A pallet's worth of stock can go, unloaded by hand at the tailgate box by box rather than by forklift. That suits a Dockfield Road unit with someone there to receive it.
Can you deliver to a shop on Market Square?
Yes. The square is pedestrian, so the van stops on the nearest street it can use and the goods go in on the trolley to the person you name.
Do you take trade waste or old shop fittings?
No. Goods move between addresses only; a licensed waste carrier is the right service for anything being thrown out.
