We Make Big Projects Happen
Established in 1987, T.J. Cottis Transport has grown from a trusted local haulage operator into a comprehensive site support provider based in Rayleigh, Essex.
Operating from Rawreth Industrial Estate, we now deliver a full range of services across Essex, London, and the wider South East, supporting projects of all sizes with the vehicles, machinery, materials, and expertise required to keep sites moving efficiently.
As the business has expanded, so has our capability. Today, T.J. Cottis Transport provides a streamlined, one-stop solution for contractors, developers, local authorities, and private clients seeking dependable service from start to finish.
We operate a modern fleet, invest in ongoing training and compliance, and maintain high safety standards across all operations. Our focus remains simple — reliable service, professional standards, and keeping projects on schedule.
From first load to final clearance, T.J. Cottis Transport delivers complete site support you can rely on.

Since 1987, we’ve grown alongside the region we serve — and supporting that community remains a core part of who we are.

We’re proud to support grassroots organisations and local teams across Essex.
From youth football sponsorships to community events, we believe in investing back into the area that has supported our growth for nearly four decades.
Seeing local teams thrive — whether on the pitch or in the workplace — reflects the same values we hold in our business: commitment, teamwork, and pride.
Industry Relationships
Alongside community support, we work with recognised industry partners and organisations that share our standards for safety and professionalism.
Our Associate Partnership at London Stadium represents our continued growth and regional presence, strengthening connections within the wider business and construction community.
We also collaborate closely with suppliers, quarry operators, contractors, and infrastructure partners to ensure projects run smoothly and responsibly.
