Belton Road units and Briggate shops: Silsden trade deliveries

From Ryefield Business Park or the units on Ryefield Way it is a short run down Keighley Road to the A629 roundabout at Steeton, so goods head south to Keighley and Bradford or north-west to Skipton without touching the town centre. That matters with a long load, because the alternative is the narrow, twisting run up Kirkgate. A pallet broken down into cartons, samples for a trade show or stock for a second shop all fit the van's 3.4m load floor, and come off at the other end with the same driver.

Deliveries into town work differently. The shops line Kirkgate and Briggate, meeting at the Bolton Road junction, where kerb space is tight and the A6034 traffic keeps moving. Drops there go best early in the day or in a quiet mid-morning window, with the goods trolleyed straight inside. Each repeat run for a Silsden shop or unit is quoted the same way as a one-off, from that day's addresses and goods, and the figure is fixed before the van sets off.

Setting up a delivery run for a Silsden business

Send both addresses, what the goods weigh and measure, and any goods-in hours, and a fixed price comes back
Give the unit number on Ryefield Way or the business park, so the van backs up to the right door first time
For a Kirkgate or Briggate shop, say whether goods go in at the front or through a back door, as the kerb out front is tight
The van carries £10,000 of goods-in-transit insurance, so flag any consignment worth more before booking
Open seven days from 8am to 8pm, which suits weekend stock moves and a first-slot drop before the town-centre shops get busy

Business & Trade Deliveries in Silsden: your questions

Can you do repeat runs from a Belton Road unit?

Yes. Each run is booked and priced on its own, with the fixed price agreed before the van sets off, so send the addresses and the goods whenever the next one is due.

Can you deliver to a shop on Briggate before it opens?

It can be the first job of the day. The van leaves Bradford at 8am and takes 30 to 40 minutes to reach Silsden, so check what time staff are in. Kerb space in the centre is tight, so a short stop with the goods trolleyed in is the easy way to do it.

Are commercial goods insured?

Goods in transit is covered to £10,000 and public liability to £5 million. For anything worth more, raise it before collection so it can be discussed.

Could you relocate a Silsden workshop or office?

Desks, cabinets, shelving and boxed stock, yes, and on a Saturday or Sunday so the working week is not lost. Machinery that needs lifting gear is beyond a man and van, so describe anything heavy when you ask.
