Hello
Many of the UK’s Haulage Operators (large and small) run lorries in there customers liveries. These can be quite interesting,complete with complex graphics which brighten up many lorries on the road.
So, how many of these ‘customer liveried’ lorries are there out there and who operates them? DHL, Eddie Stobart, Alan Firmin & WH Malcolm spring to mind.
So, come on, photos, company names and infomation on them would be fantastic.
Kindest Regards

Norberts seems to run the Andover Depot for the CO-OP!

The DFDS Scania is owned/operated by the same company next to it, M.V.H Group of Ballycastle, N. Ireland. They run 4 like this.

Hello dew & truckerjames123,
Thankyou for that infomation. Do you have any idea who runs the Coops lorries?
Kindest Regards

Hi co-op do run there own transport but over the past year Norbert Dentressangle has started to run some of it, the new RDC at Andover is run By Norbert’s as scottishcruiser said above, They have put all new Scania’s in there on “NJ11” plates, Also all new trailers.

Here is a photo i took last year of one of the Norbert Dentressangle/Co-op Scania’s.

Hello everyone
Thnakyou to everyone whos posted photos & infomation over they last couple of days. Much appreciated.
Igamston, Yes Canute managed Wilkinsons warehousing & transport operations, and have done for quite a few years now. Some of Wilkinsons smaller rigid lorries are run by someone else, but I can’t think of the name. Canute also run: The Purfume Shop (i.e The Stink Shop), J Arthur Bowers & Lakeland lorries.
240 Gardner, Have you any more W H Bowkers? I found those photos very interesting.

Yes, I have the full Bowker archive from 1919 up to 2001! Unfortunately, it’s locked in a truculent PC :unamused: I do have some more loaded onto Photobucket already, though, and will dig some out for you.

The ERF was operated by WH Malcolm but the Merc was another operator
whose name escapes me.

Weve got a few painted in Mornflake Oats colours as have a couple of other hauliers in the area,

These are owned by J.Leech and sons from Haslington near Crewe

and yes they have ben restored and yes they do work extremely hard

I’ll try and get a few pics of our fleet this week

Hello everyone,
Thankyou for your posts & photos. I’ve enjoyed looking at them. keep it up.
truckfing, The Mercedes looks like one of the Eddie Stobart UG lorries, but I’m not 100% sure.
toowise, Thankyou for that excelent photo. I though Cooper Buckley ran all the Mornflake lorries?
Kindest Regards
