just talked with one who worked for Pallex.
they must have lost many Depots and Driver too.
Knight of Old from Northampton,one of the strongest Depots left.One from Gloucester,one from Heathrow,one from Kent,…
And all moment Driverchanging.
The Job can’t be that hard,i recon?
I don’t know about Pallex but Palletline have just introduced safety measures which mean drivers do not get out of the cab while being tipped or loaded. I’ve heard that other companies have done similarly, but don’t know.
Palletline have had a few new depots and some are from Palletways, so some depots are moving around. We have also lost quite a few regular drivers recently, but again I don’t know why. I suspect that the waiting around plus the need to be back in your own depot in time for deliveries might be part of the problem.
as i know pulled pallex the driver out of theres cab as they must now scan the freight during forklift loads the trailer.
Kneight of Old went with full Trailer to Pallex and with little Freight back which brought no Money
