Seen these are advertising for class 1 drivers. Does anyone know anything about them? Plus as I’ve only recently passed my class 1 the advert says training will be given.
They do a lot of subbie work for Hovis flour mills (bagged bulk flour) out of Southampton, Glasgow, and Bawtry. Delivering into various locations inc morrisons RDCs hovis and british bakeries from London to the north. The lads I’ve met are out all week I’ve also seen them pulling nestle trailers in RDCs
Ok thanks a lot for the reply peirre says on the advert they have various shifts including roaming which I presume is the modern term for tramping lol, nights and days : )

Do they do a bit of bottled water?
They do work out of Buxton water at Waterswallows near Lomas Distrbutions yard for Nestle too and u see them coming out of Nestle at Bardon warehouse too also a lot of flour for Rank Hovis too lads I have spoke to have been trampers or 4 on 4 lads who tramp I think they run a 24/7 operation as I’ve seen them coming down the A515 when I’m heading up the Peak District on Sunday morning too they seem a good outfit with reasonable tackle .
