Hi,

I have family near Shrewsbury and was wondering if there is any Class 1 work near Telford/Shrewsbury?
(I am in the Rugby/Northampton area now.)

Someone told me it was “farmer’s wages” over there.

I would relocate over there to live If there was work.

Thanks for reading,

There’s Morgan Mclernon at Telford, Wiseman’s and Culina at Market Drayton just to name a few.

We have got a plant at Telford and their drivers are on a lot less per hour than our drivers in Northants :blush:

Actually there are a lot more firms in that area than you would imagine.

I was thinking the same, thought Ruby/Northampton area was known as the “Golden Triangle” due to the amount of work?

Excellent maga, thanks a lot for that list.
I used to drive Cemex tankers and popped into Telford some times but never really had time to see what was going on.
I have been on agencies for the last 6 years and my 1 year old son has a medical problem and if we lived near Telford, my family could help my wife also.
I realise the pay would be less than Rugby area for example but I have to think about my family more.
