F. Edmondson & Sons

During my daily trundles around Holland, I can normally count on one hand the number of British trucks that I’ll see in a month. However, I see the above firm on a daily basis, usually on the A1 coming from the direction of the German border. Not just one truck but sometimes two or more. Their website and trailers suggest furniture transport.

I just wondered if anyone knew the contract they’re doing that brings them to mainland Europe on a daily basis. IKEA perhaps? I’m just being nosy that’s all.

And I wonder would they take the North sea crossing or the Channel ports to get back to their base in Morcambe? Glad to see one British company has regular Euro.

I used to see them every time I was on the ferry to and from Ireland. They always seemed to be double manned as well.

Aah ok, that makes sense. They must leave at the same time every day as I usually pass them around Apeldoorn. Thanks for the info.

They used to have a depot in Novara, Italy at one time I think

I don’t know if they still do, but they used to go over to Malta a while back. I’ve shipped stuff over there with them.

Always enjoy seeing an edmunson, basic livery but smart looking.

Reminds me of another furniture favourite, coach house, always a treat to spot one
