Universal Tanker Solutions have over 25 years’ experience of supporting customers in the transport, management and disposal and of non-hazardous waste water products. We believe our commitment to excellent customer provision is what drives us to further develop and train our staff in order to provide the best possible service.

A NEW ADDITION TO THE UNIVERSAL TANKERS FLEET!

We’re delighted to announce that we have taken delivery of the first of 7 brand-new tankers joining the Universal Tankers fleet!

This latest addition has a 4,000-gallon capacity for waste and carries non-potable water and is equipped with a powerful Jetter, making it a highly versatile addition to our operations.

With an open rear design, this tanker is ideally suited to a wide range of demanding applications, including heavy industry and maritime services, giving our team even greater capability to support our customers with specialist requirements.

We're also pleased to introduce Adam Hinton, who will be the dedicated operative for this new tanker. Adam will be putting this impressive new vehicle through its paces and delivering the high standards of service our customers have come to expect from Universal Tankers.

One down, six more to come! We look forward to welcoming the rest of our new tankers to the fleet over the coming months.

What a fantastic day for a truly worthwhile cause!

A small team from Universal Tankers recently took to the skies to complete a charity skydive in support of Derian House Children's Hospice.

This year marked our third consecutive year taking on the challenge for this remarkable charity, which provides vital care and support to children and young people with life-limiting conditions and their families.

A huge well done to our brave jumpers:

• Toby Gunn
• Simon Gunn
• Jordan Todd
• Jon Main
• Gareth Ratcliffe

Together, the event raised an outstanding £32,862, with Universal Tankers proudly contributing £10,000 towards this amazing total.

We are immensely proud of the team for stepping out of their comfort zones and helping to raise both awareness and vital funds for such an important cause.

Thank you to everyone who has supported our fundraising efforts over the last three years. The generosity shown year after year continues to make a real difference to the children, young people and families supported by Derian House Children's Hospice.

Today, we recognise and celebrate the dedication, resilience, and hard work of seafarers around the world.

Seafarers play a vital role in keeping global trade moving, ensuring essential goods reach communities and businesses every day. Their commitment, often spent away from family and home for extended periods, is the backbone of the maritime industry.

At Universal Tankers, we're proud to support the maritime sector and would like to thank all seafarers for their invaluable contribution to the global economy and supply chain.
