Seem to be a good employer from the guys I’ve spoken too,only real downside is your expected to continue your rota as usual over the xmas period…cows don’t stop giving milk on xmas day/Boxing Day or New Years day :smiley:

Muller is a good firm to work for in my experience, the Class 1 work is a doddle. Regular start times, sensible hours, O/T after 39 hours, proper weekend & unsociable good premiums. Only problem is the hours are unsociable which is why I left, otherwise I’d probably have stayed long term.

Can imagine they run very early hours or is this not the actual milk collections - mentions deliveries so i guess its fridge work?

Very much of interest as it pretty local. I assume also something lile 4 on 4 off generally?

The rigids do the store deliveries and all their milk is delivered in. Their artics are curtain side fridges mainly for the glass bottles. Do the odd run and trunking in and out of hanworth dairy. They don’t do any farm work. They didn’t run Xmas night last year just early Boxing Day. Good lads up there to always willing to help you.

Can’t remember what their lads were on either I used to go in regular and always seemed happy enough. If you want to pop in they’re based on quarry lane just before bridge on right next to the road for industrial estate
