Gustaf Creative Exeter Event Logistics Case Study

A late-Friday enquiry for six-metre event equipment collected Sunday and delivered in Exeter by 9am Monday.

The requirement

Gustaf Creative Ltd contacted Hampson & Mealey late on a Friday. Six-metre poles were needed in Exeter by 9am on Monday for a marquee or teepee event setup.

The length of the equipment, the short lead time and the need to protect it from weather meant that a routine van or exposed flatbed movement was not the right answer.

Our solution

The poles fitted inside Hampson & Mealey’s specialist six-metre enclosed trailer. The enclosed trailer reduced the risk of rust or weather damage and was more economical than using a truck.

Collection took place on Sunday morning. A return backload was sourced so the journey remained commercially viable while still allowing a competitive customer rate.

The outcome

The equipment was delivered in Exeter by 9am on Monday as agreed, ready for the event setup. The customer was very happy with the service.

The job is a genuine example of fast response, suitable equipment selection and commercial route planning working together.
