Anyone give me the Gen on M J Church, class 2 tipper work, thanks :slight_smile:

PM preferred :grimacing:

Very well kept MAN tippers, low loaders and skips. Have a large plant hire fleet aswell, their yard’s on the A420 at near Chippenham. They do most of the tipper work for M4/ M5 maintenance. They had a Hell Drivers reputation a few years ago, but I worked alongside some of their drivers at Raf Brize Norton and they were a nice bunch. A few very cab happy chappies and a few normal guys too. :wink:
I’ve heard they’re expanding to cover the Hinckley Power Station contract, they were tipping at one of the old quarries near South Cerney a couple of weeks ago.

Normal tipper hours, (10-11/day) have heard it was £8.50 ph. Quite a few of the drivers have been there for a while. They’ve run plant at a couple of tips I’ve been to and the machine drivers were a good bunch (not like the miserable old ■■■■ on the dozer at Shipton Quarry who thinks you can keep reversing back even when you’re down to your axles).

Why do all the dozers on tips have bogmaster tracks? Surely narrow tracks (better compaction for the uninitiated) would mean lorries could get back further?
They let artics tip on their landfill too; Old ■■■■ on dozer couldn’t grasp why I wouldn’t tip alongside one on Friday.

Gone are the days when an old International 175 would do the job, once their days out on hire were over.
