Hazardous goods with a base in the province
Our head office, our fleet and our traffic desk are all in the Valle del Almanzora industrial estate, in Cuevas del Almanzora. The vehicle that loads your hazardous goods leaves from here, and it is prepared by the same team that answers the phone — not by a sales office that subcontracts the trip.
Almería is not a chemical province, but it moves classified goods every day: crop protection products and fertilisers for the greenhouses, reagents for desalination and water treatment plants, packaged gases, paints and solvents from the supply industry. All of it travels under the ADR Agreement, and with it the documentation, marking and load securing each class requires.
What we carry under ADR out of Almería
Packaged and palletised hazardous goods, from the province's farming and supply industry:
Products for the greenhouses of the Poniente and the Levante, packaged and palletised, under the class and packing group stated in the safety data sheet.
Hypochlorite, acids and correctors for desalination plants, water treatment works and irrigation heads, with incompatibilities kept apart in the load.
Cylinders and bottles for industry, farming and workshops, secured in place and with the vehicle marked according to the gas carried.
Materials from the supply industry and the Macael marble area, in approved packaging and with reinforced securing.
Classified goods from the industrial estates of the city, Carboneras and the Valle del Almanzora, as full loads or combined with other shipments where the rules allow.
What is checked before the truck leaves
An ADR job is decided before loading. With the product's safety data sheet in hand we check the class, the UN number and the packing group, and from there the labelling, the hazard plates, the emergency equipment and how to secure the load without putting incompatible products together.
That check is carried out by the Cuevas del Almanzora team on every job, backed by our Safety Adviser and by liability insurance specific to hazardous goods.
What we check on every shipment
Why work with us in Almería
Head office, fleet and staff in Cuevas del Almanzora: an urgent departure cannot wait for a truck to come down from the north.
Drivers with valid ADR licences and continuous training at approved centres.
Someone in-house oversees compliance with the Agreement across the whole operation, not an outside consultant.
If the classified goods also need refrigeration, a curtain-side trailer or a container, we cover it with our own fleet.
Coverage across the province
We load and deliver hazardous goods in the Poniente Almeriense (El Ejido, Roquetas de Mar, Vícar, La Mojonera, Adra), the Campo de Níjar, the industrial estates of the city and the port area, the Macael area, Carboneras and across the Levante and Valle del Almanzora (Vera, Pulpí, Huércal-Overa, Cuevas del Almanzora), where our base is.
Frequently asked questions
What hazardous goods can you carry out of Almería?
We work with packaged and palletised hazardous goods across the various classes of the ADR Agreement. Each class has its own packaging, labelling and documentation requirements, so the first thing we need is the product's safety data sheet: with the UN number and the packing group we can confirm on what terms we can run the job.
Can you carry ADR goods that also need refrigeration?
Yes. We have been refrigerated hauliers for more than thirty years and our drivers hold ADR licences, so goods that need both controlled temperature and ADR classification travel on the same vehicle, without splitting the shipment between two companies.
Do you carry hazardous goods internationally?
Yes. ADR is a European agreement applied in 49 countries, and we run out of Almería with the documentation and coordination that crossing borders with classified cargo requires.
Do you have a Safety Adviser?
Yes, our own. It is the role the regulations require of companies involved in the transport of hazardous goods, and at Doseguer it oversees the whole operation: load preparation, paperwork, staff training and incidents.
