I can recommend a few websites to you to cure that problem if you like. :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :grimacing: :grimacing: :grimacing: :grimacing: :grimacing: :grimacing: :grimacing: :grimacing:

Going back a few years ago, about three i think, i remember loading them boxes of cans of lager from somewhere near Burton. The boxes where stacked on the pallets in such a fashion that there was a space inbetween every box. Strapping them was not possible, thats how all the loads came out of there. Someone else from here must of had the same/similar loads? Do they still do it like that?

They do or rather did Mike, we used to take them to Cortimmo in Calais It was our own yard where they tipped them and there was always a huge stack of damaged cans outside. Handy when you were on a night out apparently :blush:

Could only strap across the back using spare pallets

It was DHL but our job was run by Norbert Dentressangle

Cans out of CCE aren’t going to move in a million years.

WADR you are wrong, I’m sure loads have been shot by poor driving technique, but cans from CCE have moved due to poor loading at CCE of both the pallets and the cans on the pallets themselves.
