Hi Steve,
Not a lot basically mate…had military work on next week but the army stopped it…only work that can be carried out is NHS or goverment departments…Britannia taken BAR policy finish what you already taken on for this week and cancel anything on the books from monday onwards.
Lets hope it just a couple of weeks Steve !

Hi mark ,never heard of them I will ask my mother she might know looks like a removal truck to me as it’s the same that Jones had in the 60,s she knows a few people who might know
Cornwall st is the old gas works by beach hill
Hello John ,Glad to hear your working !! i was going to go on the agency but my accountant is saying No 1 as i would not get the help from the Goverment ! i got one NHS (FREE OF CHARGE)job on Monday , going to wash my wagon today ,do the hoffs motor next week ,paint the yard fence ,strip the office out and paint and then just worry !!! I think this will kill me to be totally honest .

Hi Steve, I hope it don’t mate fingers crossed It be ok try courier exchange they always got work for vans we using some in our place to help out even a small pallet job put on the Merc or kango van keep you going mate
I cannot imagine the worry & anxiety going through the minds of all involved in the removal trade at this time.
In my time we had our problems which I illustrate in a post I put on this morning on W.H.Williams Thread , but none of these compare with this present situation which will continue for a minimum of three months.
It is time to think outside the box as even when back at work it will take months to return to normality as property sales for some time will be dire & solicitors will take quite some time to catch up with conveyancing .
Like I said its time to think outside the box. Vans can be used for so many purposes & even now hospitals need beds & supplies & straight afterwards a lot of goods will be in shortage & demand for transport will exceed demand.
Good luck to all & god bless
