Iā€™m sorted now, but nice to see employers posting jobs on the forum! Gives us all a little bit of faith in whatā€™s left of the UK haulage industry! :smiley:

A search on here for surefreight comes back with some damming comments about their working practices or how they once where ,as Iā€™m sure everyone knows things can/do change,I would hope they have changed for the better, as i for one wouldnā€™t be running outside the drivers hours or taking out a truck with defects that would get me a FPN & fine plus points on my licence ,

Liverpool?! we used to dream of Liverpool! When I was a ladā€¦ etc etc.

But seriously, anywhere near Lutterworth and thereā€™s work aplenty, if you canā€™t find work then the problem isnā€™t the lack of jobs.

Where is it?

I am banging my head against a brick wall trying to find work up here. I have literally exhausted every avenue :frowning:

Basically, I want to work, need to work and am now thinking about travelling to the work. So, where should I start my search? The Midlands, North West, North East! Down South?

Iā€™m probably being biased but I personally think Bristol has a lot to offer job wise due to Itā€™s geographical location, you can get to West Cornwall, West Wales, Kent, Manchester etc all in a 4 1/2 hr drive,
