Kings Heavy Haulage is a Bristol-based operator with more than 50 years of experience in heavy and abnormal load movements. The company operates in niche segments such as defence, infrastructure, aerospace and industrial projects, where transports often involve exceptional dimensions, sensitive cargo and complex regulatory and permitting requirements. Its activities typically include detailed route planning, coordination with authorities and the use of specialised equipment.
The acquisition gives Capelle Group access to an established UK platform with strong local expertise and long-standing customer relationships. Capelle is active across several European countries and focuses on oversized and heavyweight road transports for sectors including construction, energy, industry and aerospace.
According to statements cited by industry media, the deal is intended to strengthen Capelle’s specialist capabilities rather than expand general transport volumes. Kings Heavy Haulage is expected to continue operating under its existing name, with its workforce and operational structure retained.
The financial terms of the transaction have not been disclosed.
