Anyone know anything - good or bad - about them? They’re advertising for a night trunker. Turns out I’m not cut out for office work at all …

that’ll be most likely for the pallet trunk .
Have seen there stuff around for donks used to run nearly all ERF’s well kept kit long term family owned firm, Never heard anything bad about them ( don’t mean anything mind ) You don’t see them advertising that often as with a lot of old time company’s they tend to take on by word of mouth…
Always worth the call if your interested …

Can you not go back on the road at Freightroute? You seemed quite happy doing that.

I was. If and when it’s an option I’ll grab it with both hands, but they’ve taken someone on to do my job.
I rang Richard Read this morning and they’ve already filled that vacancy. Shame, I was rather looking forward to getting back behind the wheel of an elderly ERF. :slight_smile:

Looking at there website they are still advertising for drivers ,
They have vacancies for 2 different jobs.
