Not worked for them specifically but pallet work generally is not brilliant unless it’s your thing.
I find it a bit of a pain trying to shuffle pallets around in the back of a truck then squeeze the pallet truck onto a tail lift that’s about 5mm bigger than the truck itself without the thing falling off!
Used to work for them part time in 1973 when they were based in Station Road Swindon.
All they had was a ex- SEB Austin van, a new Transit diesel van and a Ford Cortina estate. They also had access to Godfrey Davis Transit Luton vans at favourable rates. The transport manager was Mick Durham. Sound as a pound. Happy memories!

I think Mike Durham is still connected with the company in some shape or form.
He set up SW transport( god I hate that word logistics) along with Ken Knox. Think their first place was on Transfer bridge est.
I worked for them from 1995 til 2000 and they seemed a decent enough firm, lot of distance work in them days including a bit of euro.
Pretty sure that they are not involved with any of that pallet network malarkey as they are dedicated hauliers to a lot of clients.
Still a family run company and you could probably do a lot worse.
They have 5 or 6 depots, not sure of the pay nowadays but used to be one of the better ones to work for.
