Its a lot better than the old yard at westerhope. Tipping isn’t bad though. All you do is pull the stacks out and one of their lads will lift them and take them out of the trailer
don’t forget to NEVER leave the keys in the truck even doing your checks. They will instantly kick you off site for that

I used to work in that building when it was rank hovis macdougal back in 1972, I was 17 at the time. Used to fill big sacks with animal foods & send them down a chute, then go and stack them. We would spend time sliding down the chute or going up & down the open elevator. Got sacked for it eventually, ho hum.
Most places in or around here are classed as Newcastle as its the biggest city up here, and lets face it, if someone said take it to scumberland nobody would take the job would they.
that says so much about the geordie nation.
