I love how they say “high value cargo”, most cargo is high value on a lorry…Not really. Have you got a Playstation 5? The same space taken up by toilet rolls in a trailer that that £450 console does boxed would be worth about £2. £20 to £30 of chipboard would take up the same space in a trailer that a £2000 OLED TV would. When you get to talking about stuff like computer components like those that the couriers for Aria, Scan Computers, Ebuyer etc carry then you’re talking thousands of pounds often in something the size of a ■■■ packet to a shoe box size.
Off topic but…
Remember years ago truck was hijacked at Burtonwood services on the M62, but they got the wrong truck and instead of whatever they were after stole a truck full of toilet roles (that was befor Covid), the truck broke down on the slip road.
