Perfect for your can of Lilt isn’t it?
There’s always the dole if you don’t like it
Not just day drivers, you should see the sh that some trampers at my place live in. 
I’d feel guilty letting my dog sleep in some of their stinking cabs.
I just refuse to drive anything there below my own standards…which are pretty high tbh.
One or two men to the same truck permanently would sort most of that out and as a by product probably save £thousands in careless damages. But that’ll never happen because it would require planners to actually plan as opposed to feeding details into a computer and then peddling that out as a run.

Yes your right , apparently there all being replaced by daf xg , s , double them up with the same drivers & then at least you can pin point who the dirty sods are
That hasn’t got like that over the course of one day shift.
Take it to Soapy Jo’s Dozy. £50 for a full valet, give the receipt to the company. It focused a few minds at our place when I did that on my first day back after a fortnight holiday.

I know Harry , it’s got like that over a period of time , but that’s still no excuse , when I was on agency I used 5/6/7 yr old trampers trucks & most were spotless

Its alright but when I shared one truck with one driver,I always end up with the picky one who complains about the slightest thing,or leaves loads of air freshners in there.Or,decides to leave his pillow and blanket on the bunk because he thinks he is the main driver and the night driver is a guest.
Now in my place ,you get a truck with rubbish left in it,nobody cares
I like to keep my removal truck clean. As sleep in it often… it’s getting the pesky porters to keep the same mindset!
Day driver here. Had a few jobs where you share with the same man and it gets kept seriously clean but most jobs including this one currently you just clean the bits you touch and try not pick up a disease from it. No cleaning products provided and you’re lucky if you see the same truck over a fortnight. This is when a truck stops becoming a truck and starts becoming a tool. Last shift I was caked in 5th wheel grease from the lines and the truck smelt of old feet. Lost a good pair of gloves that day.
The way to tell if you need clean socks is to throw them against the wall. If they stick, you need a clean pair, if they fall they are good to go another day.
