Coal transporter in hurry (7)

I believe the answer is:

scuttle

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'hurry' is the definition.
(I know that scuttle is a more specific form of the action pelt)

I can't explain the remainder of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for scuttle that I've seen before include "container carrying coal?" , "Coal bucket" , "Move hurriedly" , "Coal container for fireside" , "dish?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
