whiplash:
James,plenty of companies about doing UK/Ireland.Some better than others,pay wise,some better than others,terms and conditions wise.
There normal candidates pop up,here and elsewhere.
Dixons,Caffreys,Nolans,Virginia,Surefreight.
The plant and equipment I think,in fairness,is as good as any out there.
Some will bring you home(Ireland) every week,some will let you stay out and do your own thing.
You wont get rich quick though anymore.
Both Dixons and Nolans have yards in Rugby but in the main the drivers there just ship trailers same with Virginia from their yard just outside Birmingham. Surefreight have a yard in Cardiff but again I think they mostly ship trailers. The likes of Agro (Sawyers) have a fair bit of work from both of those areas but I don’t know if they would outbase a lorry there although you might be able to work all week and then get a load home on a Friday with a reload on Sunday night back to Ireland
