Two-man delivery in Loughton
Tasito provides dedicated two-man delivery services across Loughton and the surrounding business areas, including Langston Road and the retail park beside it, the workshop units at Oakwood Hill and the former council depot site on Rectory Lane. From office and retail furniture to fixtures, equipment and awkward single items, a crew of two travels with the vehicle and carries each item in and positions it where you want it, with the access agreed before anything is loaded. With Loughton around twenty-four miles from our Essex base via the M25, we are well placed for crewed deliveries here and onward runs into London and up the M11.
The three employment sites here work differently, so the site name changes the booking more than the town name does. Bookings run until 4pm, Monday to Friday.
The parts of Loughton we collect from
Langston Road is the largest site, allocated for business and general industrial use, with the retail park alongside it. There is room to turn on the estate roads and a Luton reaches the units.
Oakwood Hill and the Rectory Lane site are small workshop units with no forklift, often no yard and a doorway rather than a dock, so everything that goes inside is carried by hand. The retail park has service access with shop interiors at the end of the carry.
How the roads behave
We come in via M25 junction 27, which is busy in both peaks, and the A121 towards Epping is slow with no parallel route. With notice we choose the hour for a crewed delivery.
Loughton is in Epping Forest district, outside ULEZ and the Congestion Charge. If the delivery goes into London, the charges for that address apply, and we include them in the price with the route.
How the consignment is handled
The crew carries each item off the vehicle, through the doorway and into the unit, and positions it where you want it. Packaging goes back with us where that was agreed at booking.
Assembly, installation and clearing old furniture are separate work, so tell us when your fitter is due. At a workshop unit the doorway and the turn behind it usually decide what goes in, so measure the narrowest point if the item is close to it and we confirm at booking.
What we send and what fits
Langston Road takes a Luton, and the box Luton's tail lift covers a unit with no forklift. For Oakwood Hill and Rectory Lane we send a short or medium wheelbase unless the load needs more.
Lengths that will not pass through a unit doorway go on the flat bed. The fleet page has dimensions for every class.

Loughton questions
It changes the whole job. Langston Road has room and takes a Luton. Oakwood Hill and Rectory Lane are small workshop units with no forklift and often no yard, so everything goes in by hand. Give us the site name as well as the town.
Tell us at booking and we send something with a tail lift rather than assuming a forklift, with a crew to break it down and take the goods inside. Workshop units rarely have handling equipment, and that is the most common reason a pallet delivery goes wrong at a small-unit estate.
Yes. Give us the number of flights, the tightest turn and the longest item, or the goods lift's internal depth where there is one. We tell you what goes up before anybody sets off.
No. It is in the Epping Forest district, which is Essex, so it sits outside both the ULEZ and the Congestion Charge despite being minutes from the London boundary.
Then that address decides it: the Congestion Charge centrally, and ULEZ where the vehicle does not comply. You hear which, and what it comes to, at booking rather than after the job.
Effectively yes, so a delivery in one and a collection in the other is a single short job. The A121 between them is slow with no parallel route, which is the reason we pick the hour deliberately.
No. Carried in and positioned where you want it, packaging away if you ask at booking. Assembly is a separate trade, so send us your fitter's time and we will land the delivery against it.
4pm, Monday to Friday, and earlier is materially better on this one. A crew is allocated alongside the vehicle, and a booking taken late in the day meets junction 27 in the evening peak before it ever reaches the delivery address.
