jenkinsons is your best bet for work up that end of the country should be plenty of woodchips ect. oh and by the way if you see a stobart floor they are all run by jenkinsons. you could try Alan morris they run a lot out of liverpool area but if you want to do paper reels you have to have a magic eye system fittted.
they might be a little bit heavier as someone said but if you get somewhere and they wont tip you just open the doors and start the floor its fun how quick you get a fork lift there lol
Yeah, I was speaking to a driver fron ADT @ Warrington who runs return loads out of Edinburgh and he was showing me the magic eye system. Apparantly if you don’t have this the mills won’t load you as due to an incident where a paper reel came of the back and rolled of down a street taking out 2 cars. He had a brand new FH and a new knapen trailer. He rekons it cost 44 k new.for the trailer alone. Expensive business!
Thanks for the advice folks. Top site. First time I used it was this week.
Cheers

Stobarts floors arent ALL run by jenkys pete. There`s 15 doing european run from stobart appleton thorne.
We load regularly from gent with reels for tilbury and the only magic eye i have is in my pants
sorry jb i thought they all were, must only be the ones down this way.i know we dont need the magic eye system to load down out of tilbury at the moment but it will only be short lived i think. and yes it was because a polish driver new to floors backed in to a place started the floor and got back into his cab !!!
