Very unprofessional … you need more straps on that !! you should know better

Strapped down because obviously you didn’t want your back doors smashing in!
They didn’t stay like that for long, I collected a proper backload a bit later and they ended up chucked (by chucked I mean carefully and securely placed of course) on top of the palletised full load which was fully strapped with internals and a crisscross across the back two (probably )
We didn’t have any of those new fangled load rated curtains back then as far as I remember.
On the Fed Ex / Matchbox contract I once ran from Rugby to Glasgow with a 3’ by 3’ carton of yesteryear models in a 40’ trailer and returned empty.
i once had a full load of glider engines,and then 2 pickups,one of waitcoat sleeves and then filed out the splitter with chicken lips.
I was once sent out in an 18T rigid on overtime (having already completed my run) from Northampton to Amazon at Milton Keynes. My load was a box containing an electric shaver.
