Well, that and the fact that the commute from Guildford every night would be a killer! :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

I was talking to one of their drivers in Birmingham a few months ago, he wasn’t impressed with them.

cheers degsy,i’ve heard the same on here but figured a night trunk job might not be as bad if it’s the same set route every night and the bosses are out of the way in bed not ringing up every 20 minutes.

they’re on my doorstep and i’ve never worked there :open_mouth: they’d be towards the bottom of the list if i was ringing round. but i’m a believer of making your own mind up and i’ve worked for some firms that have had a bad reputation, but i found them spot on to work for.

Think they’ve got 1 or 2 into palletforce

I drove for Nigel Rice, which is Beverley’s equivalent to TEF, on the night trunk.

Whilst they may be crap to work for on regular work, there’s not much they can do to make night trunking a crap job. So even if a firm has a bad rep to work for, as long as the wagons are OK and they pay on time then I think you’re OK doing night trunk work for most of them.

If you live in Scarborough area may be the best you can get not a great deal round there workwise.
