I noticed on the map above rook lane looks like
a short cut and was wondering if you can get
a artic down with a trailer max height 15’5 or
is it quicker/better to go rooley lane on to
tong street. Also do you take Weaverthorpe road or
Toftshaw Lane.
What’s it like at Princes soft drinks as I have heared
the load is bottles on pallets now not cages but they
take pics after you been loaded to show it was strapped
and loaded properly. Do they have loading bays and what
they like also anything else handy to know about this place
I should know.
convoy:

I’m no good with directions, but its a small industrial estate just behind a Netto. Its a job to get from the gate house to the correct part to laod from. When i’ve been its been loaded (by me!) on dollies. Well the forky shoves them on and you twist them round to fit. They do have bays and if you have roller doors life them up before you back on as their flap doesn’t fold in and will leave a love;y dent in your door, you won;t see at first as its dark under the canopy
you cannot use rook lane, its on the wrong side of a dual carriageway.
use the route you have, m606 ,rooley lane, tong st (A650) and turn right at the lights by Netto into weaverthorpe rd. ( I think that these are the second proper lights)
security on the gate will direct you in the ind est
never loaded there but have watched,
pallets loaded 2 at a time side by side and pushed across the trailer.
no loading bays that I know of.
don’t know about photos etc, but have noticed that drivers always strap pallets fully.
seems to be fairly rapid loading.
hope this helps
If you are coming from M1 side of bradford you can come off at junct 27 and follow A650 towards bradford, turning left into weaverthorpe rd.
just seen other posts that mention bays and dollies. I have only ever watched curtain siders loading.
Not been there for 9 months now but should all still be the same, Toftshaw lane is the postal address not the entrance you need the gate on Tong street I used to come the other way so not to shaw about your short cut but coming from your direction you will see a netto store on your right at some traffic lights turn right there onto Weaverthorpe road and the gate is in front of you security will sort you out. depends where on site you are loading but they do load of bays aswell as fork lift truck on the side (apart from we had fridges so had a lot of ■■■■■■■ the pallets about.
its sign posted like somebody said right at the lights by netto worked out of there for 3yrs for tnt ceva in the gate right down slope between buildings turn right down to trl park at bottom office on right
Yes convoy thats the best route for you mate, I live 5 min from there.
When coming up the M606 after the first turn off Keep in the middle lane, that will take you on to the A6177 rooley lane follow that to some lights, you will see asda on your left go straight through lights then get in right hand lane, at roundabout turn right onto A650 tong street, come to some lights keep in middle lane, you will see a subway on your left at the lights.
Go straight through the lights then after 1200yards turn right at the lights you will see a retail park to your left thats weaverthorpe rd go to bottom and you will see the security gate.
Hope that helps ya By the way dont park anywere near there mate you will get curtains slashed or diesel nicked.

All the customers in the pub had their arses spilling over their trousers, pitbulls and tatoos, the blokes were even worse.
I know but there was nothing better, never quite fancied the bingo hall I used to park there every Friday and Saturday night for about 6 months delivering sugar into Princes. There were a load of kids playing on my tank, I called the police, they dare not come to see me. They said it makes them worse
ok im based there so here ya go, DONT FOLLOW THE SAT NAV OR IT WILL SEND YOU DOWN A COUNTRY LANE , go m606 onto the a6177 go past ASDA and the arc carwash there is a rounderbout (or what used to be a rounderbout) there go straight over onto next rounderboust and turn right (A650) past subway on the 4th set of light where netto is turn right and you can see the guard house, just a word of advice, on site go slow as there is loads of work going on and the h&S man is a but of a [zb],
the loading is pritty fast provided that your order is picked, if you have the option try go in on nights as it can get a bit busy on days
it is normally but the roadworks are making it a bit hellish during the day
directions for that are, m62 j27, head for A650 bradford over 2 r/b`s past the school to the lights at the brow of the hill, should be able to see netto on the left, turn left BEFORE netto and your there
