Peter wilkinson removals sunderland
I wonder how many modern day drivers would be able to load a wagon like that with an average household removal from the 20’s and early 30’s with the amount of furniture and effects found in a house in those days and transport it without any damage. Dad explained to me how it was done, ensuring that the load was squared off to sheet and rope, and keeping the furniture and effect dry as they loaded often on rainy days.
It was an art and often the loads were very high.
