GORDON 50:
One of the big supermarkets once sent me on a 45 min run to a store with mixed chill/ ambient load in a normal box trailer (no fridge), it was mid winter and quite cold out there and it was in my early days of driving so I assumed this was normal practice.
I recall a quite few years when driving was a lot better than it is today early December, loading frozen meat hampers out of Reading Cold Store in a standard box vehicle, had a week on it, loading a 7am around 15 drops, all private houses. Used to double your wages in tips, was the only thing that was good about it though.
