About Mitchells of Mansfield Ltd
Mitchells of Mansfield Ltd is a leading logistics and transportation service provider based in Sutton‑in‑Ashfield, UK. They specialise in agile freight solutions, including overnight freight, next day delivery, pallet network distribution, and UK, Irish, and European transport — all delivered with a focus on efficiency and environmental responsibility.
The Challenge
Like many growing logistics businesses, Mitchells was dealing with multiple operational pressures:
- Complex delivery schedules and hazardous chemical transport requirements
- Inefficient manual processes for tracking and documenting deliveries
- Limited real‑time visibility of freight status and Proof of Delivery
- Desire to embed environmental sustainability into transport costing
These challenges were impacting productivity and operational consistency across teams.
The Solution
Mitchells of Mansfield partnered with RentUrApp™ in June 2021, adopting a suite of integrated applications to modernise their transport operations:
MoveSist™ – Cloud‑based TMS
- Central platform to manage deliveries and operations in real time
- Automated tracking, reporting, and workflow management
ScanSist™ – Barcode Scanning Interface
- Improved scanning accuracy for freight movement and handling
PODSist™ – Proof of Delivery Automation
- Streamlined capture and upload of POD documentation for instant visibility
In November 2023, RentUrApp™ extended the solution by developing the CO² OffSet Calc tool in response to Mitchells’ sustainability goals. This innovation allows the company to integrate carbon offset costs into their transport pricing and reporting — making environmental accountability part of everyday operations.
