Very easy this one. Coming clockwise round M25 take at the St Albans exit, junction 22. At the end of the slip road enter the roundabout and take the the A1081, London Colney Bypass. Go along the dual carriageway for a few hundred metres and there will be a turning on your left, you will see Sainbury’s/NFT. Take the left turn and after 50 metres turn right to the gatehouse.
When you leave you will have to turn left back onto the dual carriageway. You have two options, either go to the roundabout at the end and come all the way back round and back along the dual carriageway to the roundabout and take the third exit then follow signs to rejoin the M25. Or at the first roundabout you come to after leaving the depot instead of going all the way round it take the second exit, then at the next roundabout take the second exit again. Straight over the next small one and at the next one you are back at the M25, the third exit will have you heading in the right direction for home.

London Colney.
Just noticed you are coming from Charlton so if you approach from the anti clockwise direction still take junction 22 and at the top of the slip road take the second exit back over the M25. At the next roundabout you again want the A1081, London Colney Bypass, then directions as above.

Depending if you are delivering Chilled or Ambient, you may have to go round the back to Unit 5(all ambient goes to unit 5). Book in at the main gatehouse, then come back out of the yard, turn right, go round past DHL turn right just past them(you can only go left or right) then Unit 5 is up there on the left at the end of the road. Make sure you book in at the main gatehouse first though!!

…Book in at the main gatehouse, then come back out of the yard, turn right, go round past DHL turn right just past them(you can only go left or right)…
And be very careful turning right if there is anything parked on the left. I saw a driver from Bee Line drag the left, rear corner of his trailer along a car on Thursday morning as he made the right turn. I was waiting to turn out of the gate at DHL, he had loads of room but made a complete arse of it. The Bee Line driver was just going to drive off but as the car belonged to one of the DHL lads I’m afraid I had to be a grass. 
if its unit 5 they’ve got the yard dug up at the moment so not alot of room.

Only if you have 10 or more lifts of ambient.
If you’ve only got a few, they often bang you on a bay inside the main gate.
Easy. 
Phewww,
I am finally home after my mamoth tour of the m25,well it was mamoth for me.I started at 03.50 this morning and headed for sainsburys at charlton.
I arrived at 0755 just intime for my booking in for 0800.That ramp is a bit of a ■■■■■ to reverse up especially as there were 2 other trucks either side of the bay i wanted,but i managed it and was quite pleased with myself.I eventually left there at 10.05 and then had a drop at 11.00 for sainsburys/nft at st albans
london colney.The entrance to the toll boths at dartford tunnell looked real tight and they were,to be honest i was quite nervous approaching the tunnel as i had never been that way before.After a nice drive in the sun i arrived at nft at 11.10 i went to unit 5 around the back and had a short wait as there were already 3 trucks waiting to go in,i approached the seccurity guard at unit 5 to ask if i could book in and he told me i had book in at the main bloody gate at the front,so i did a short run threw the building and booked in.It was a tight yard in there as they were digging the bays up.I left there at 12.05 and i arrived at base at 16.00ish, wash and fuel up unit and away i was,12.5 hrs pay
and another days experience .Thanks to trucknet site i have knowledge
of many dc sites now throughout the uk these are where i have been so far in the couple of months i have been driving.

Thats not strictly true. I dont doubt it has happened but many a time i have seen a rigid come in with the odd 1 or 2 pallets and sit and wait for an hour in the queue. I have been in there myself with 8 pallets of Pet Food and had to go to unit 5.
I love tipping at Sainsbury’s Charlton,at least you can get a shower and someting to eat there.
