Moving heaven and earth.....

Warsop based Bowring Transport has grown from a one man operation with a single lorry to a multi-million pound transport business.

In 1951 Bill Bowring had no idea that his small livestock transporting business would flourish into one of the largest privately owned transport fleets in the East Midlands.

The business began with moving livestock for farmers to the markets of North Nottinghamshire, before progressing into general agricultural haulage and carrying loads such as fertiliser, corn and sugar beet.

In 1974, Bill's wife and their two sons, formed the company Bowring Transport Limited. Although the company was still involved in the agricultural haulage market, the business then branched out into the transportation of building waste and materials for road reconstruction projects.

Bowring Transport purchased it's first articulated vehicle in 1976, expanding the fleet of eight wagons and fifteen staff. Today the fleet stands at an impressive 60 plus vehicles covering all aspects of specialist haulage.


"We have never undertaken deliberate or planned expansion, we have grown as and when a viable opportunity presented itself"

"None of this could have been achieved without a lot of hard work and a very loyal and dedicated workforce"
