'Pill Hobblers Marine Services Ltd' provides mooring and unmooring services to vessels berthing and sailing to and from the Royal Portbury Docks and Avonmouth. We also cover the Bristol City docks, as and when the need arises. The ports, themselves, are well established and are involved in the imports of coal and LPG, grain and gypsum, plus the import and export of cars and containers.
The Bristol Port Company is creating a deep water berthing container terminal facility at Avonmouth, thereby enhancing its role as a gateway container port for the UK and an onward shipping point for the Atlantic seaboard and Europe.
