can anyone give me any info or know of any places who would give me a try on an artic in the preston or bolton area,almost forgot but i can tie dollys and have used chains and straps if that would help me.
Do Montgomery Transport, the big firm from Northern Ireland still have a depot at Walton Summit ? Might be worth a trip out on Saturday morning to have a look around there and maybe some other local Industrial Estates.
There are some big distribution depots in Skelmersdale,- Asda and Matalan are just a couple that come to mind.
Lynx Express in Leyland are always looking (always a bad sign ) for both night and day Trunk Drivers - Lancashire to the Midlands and back, usually. On Moss Side Industrial estate, also in Leyland, there’s a company called Naylor’s Transport.
Turner’s in Hoole,Preston and Walter Carefoot in Longridge (Artic Tippers) are long established firms, it depends how far you are willing to ‘commute’ really.
I also have heard some, er,…shall we say,negative comments made about the MRS company, but that was over a year ago and maybe things have changed…or maybe not… 'Nuff said.
