Seems to be all over Facebook. People local to me asking for a job as they’ve lost job last night. Someone else posted for people who have lost their job due to bedfords doing under contact walkers transport as about 12 vacancies currently

Didn’t realise they were still making them.
Thought it was Duntstable.

Went into administration this week

If this is true I think it’s been coming a while,
Used to be mostly print work,polestar and the mail newspapers,
I had a short stint there around 2003-4 but left as delivering mail on Sunday supliments to Menzies wholesalers around London on a Saturday afternoon wasn’t for me at all,
You used to drive past there yard on a Tuesday or Wednesday and loads of units parked up drive past on a Saturday and hardly any…
Iv noticed recently they were pulling ferry trailers and doing reed boardall work so thought they must be struggling after polestar went bust.
Don’t know if they were still doing the mail newspaper,
Drivers will get taken on by the other desperate West Yorks hauliers until they go the same way
