A couple more from M A Evans yard,these vehicles belong to another company that rent some of their premises.

broomfield recycling groups new motors

Spot on Wazzy, but they have dropped the Bromfield bit now, its just called The Recycling Group now (T.R.G).
Used to go under B.I.S (Bromfield Industrial Services) But its all the same firm.
They used to run these crabby old red FM’s.

Ive done a fair bit for them over the past two years, mostly on the ejectors but sometimes if I was good they let me lose with a box. :laughing:
The three FH’s are ex Screwfix (Stafford) as you know, last time I was at the Stafford DC they had about 20 odd 07 plate FH’s parked up waiting to be sold.

Dave, is this old green 4 wheeler ERF still parked in the corner of that yard?
