Haulier insolvency watch: West of England

In liquidation

A liquidator is winding the company up.

In administration

An administrator runs the company, usually to rescue it or to get a better result for its creditors.

In receivership

A receiver, usually appointed by a lender, deals with some or all of the company’s assets.

Gazette insolvency notice

A notice published in The Gazette, the official public record, such as a winding-up petition or the appointment of a liquidator or administrator. A petition can be dismissed; the notice says what was published, on its date.

Why a licence can still be listed

The DVSA operator licence file and the Companies House register are separate public registers, updated on their own timetables. A licence stays in the DVSA file (here, the file dated 7 October 2026) until the Traffic Commissioner records a change, so the two can differ for a while. What happens to a licence is a matter for the Traffic Commissioner.

This page reports what the registers show on their dates. It is not a finding about any operator or its conduct. If a company here is yours and something is wrong, or you want to add a statement, use the link on its row.
