Brakes/ Bidfood/ Palletline

peirre:
Remember the pallet network lie when you turn up at a yard having driven past everyone in the queue, “it’s only one pallet Guv”

We don’t have the luxury of time like the one drop Charlie’s

Brakes are advertising salaries of £37 k… is this pay scale genuine?

Yes,and there’s a good reason for that :wink:

Pallet network isn’t actually that bad. After a while you learn the routes as it tends to be the same places you deliver to and collect from with the odd one off thrown in. Almost all of it is fork truck off the back of the wagon and on industrial estates etc. Typically you’ll have maybe 5-6 drops and a few collections.

Sorry fella - you should look at your keyboard as it’s not working properly - there should be a 1 in front of the 5 and the 6 and the collections have got to be done before everybody shoves off at home time - some folks finish at four - they don’t like drivers arriving and pulling their curtains back whilst they’re pulling on their coats. :smiley:

Anyone recommend Bidfoods? Good to get experience with for a few months/ years?

You will be worked into the ground, they advertise daily for drivers and rely on agencies, the job is multi drop in town centres mostly pallets of heavy items like 25kg bags of flour and trays of baked beans down flights of stairs to the store cupboard.
You are a labourer that happens to have an HGV licence.
Avoid and find something else
