Calible of driver pal,not my cup of tea ,if your round that area theres much better .

Wish there were some round here(live in Bradford - yeah poor me!) that took on less experienced. Phoned/visited and still only work is bits and bats through agency.

Spoke to Peckover about an hour ago and give guy his due he was friendly and answered my questions and said either call in to drop CV off or email it to him.

Might get filed in the round cabinet but was friendly enough

I see these clowns were advertising again in the local paper for Class 1 and 2 drivers.

How did you get on?

Hi just been for interview at peckover anybody working for peckover or have worked for them would be gratetful of any feed back.

I did a bit of work for this outfit a few years ago when I lived in Bradford, never ever again, I wont elaborate on here, but avoid like the plague.

This firm regularly advertise in the local paper for drivers.
They must have employed nearly every driver in West Yorkshire and Poland.

No harm in applying. Trucks and trailers always look decent and as much as I passed a few year ago I’ve not really done much truck driving for few year and I’ve heard they take on less experienced.

Anybody out there work for peckover.

Peckover make Bedfords look professional.

Ive noticed all the 10 bit hauliers round bradford,joda,patterfield,peckover and bannister have all got new fleets of ivecos ,they will make them last another 15yrs :laughing: the salesman at northern coms will be laughing his bollox off with all the upkeep after the warranty has run out :laughing:

Knew a bloke that went to patefield and said it was great,the others I can’t comment on but iv never heard anything very good…

These firms are notorious for all the wrong reasons but I will say this I will not drive an Iveco on a permanent basis, ok for the odd day or two say agency work but not as a full time driver. The build quality is abysmal and they are just cheap plastic trucks that don’t last 5 minutes. :neutral_face:

I haven’t driven an iveco for about 15 years. Are they really still as bad as they were then? [emoji15]

Put it this way I got a 2013 plate last year so it was a year old and it was like driving an old banger. Very uncomfortable an hour into my run my derriere had gone numb, so many rattles and seals gone on the windows which let in a force 9 gale! but I have driven a few of them and never seen a good one yet. On the other hand I have had old Volvos 6/7 years old that have been a joy to drive :wink:

Just seen this post and I’m a bit surpised at all the abuse theyre gtting.

I’ve worked for them for 4 months or so now and it seems a good company. All the guys ive met are happy and dont winge about much. There are guys who have been away and come back, so that says summat.

I can only think that buttkm and seth have an axe to grind for some reason.

Pays good and theres plenty of hours and the work is clean.

But do what you got to do mate.
