Greater London is a densely-packed city of 8.6 million – the joint largest in Western Europe alongside Paris. It relies on reliable and efficient logistics to deliver food, clothes, documents, medicines, building and construction materials; keeping the city going 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Theatres, restaurants, sporting venues and tourist attractions need a constant supply of goods and services to meet the demands of their customers. And the waste left behind has to be cleared up before another day begins.
What is Logistics UK Campaigning for?
The challenges surrounding logistics in London vary and we are actively involved in many areas including:

Greater London Council
Logistics UK members can join our Greater London Council and discuss and influence our campaigning and policy position with issues affecting London.
Compliance and advice
Advice for Logistics UK members on a variety of issues that may affect your operation, including LEZ, ULEZ and PCNs
