TV & Film Transport Logistics Manchester

Production schedules wait for no one. Tranzcare delivers highly specialised, completely confidential transport infrastructure for television, film, and commercial productions across the UK. Operating seamlessly from our Manchester base to MediaCityUK and remote location sets, we provide un-brokered fleet control to keep your shoot on schedule and within budget.

SYNCED TO YOUR WRAP TIMES. OPERATING 24/7

Managing the Chaos of a Unit Move

We understand that a call sheet is fluid. Wrap times get pushed, weather windows collapse, and unit moves happen in the dead of night. Tranzcare doesn’t operate like a standard hire firm; we integrate directly into your production’s logistical spine.

Our operations desk remains active around the clock, meaning when a location manager changes tomorrow’s routing at midnight, our drivers are already briefed, pre-mapped, and standing by before your crew finishes breakfast.

The Media Framework

  • Absolute Cast & Artist Privacy: No social media posts, no requests for autographs, and zero disclosure of location locations. Our drivers are stringently vetted, professional, and contractually bound by comprehensive NDA terms.
  • Wholly Owned Fleet Diversity: Eliminate the administrative nightmare of dealing with multiple transport brokers. We supply the entire logistics pyramid using our own internal fleet assets.
  • Accountability for Call Times: We track local traffic infrastructure, low-emission boundaries, and location height restrictions in advance. When your cast or crew needs to hit the set, the vehicles are already warm.
  • Direct Unit Production Billing: Transparent, structured line-item invoicing mapped cleanly to your specific production codes, PO systems, and media auditing requirements.
