Containers here too. With the odd day pulling a curtain (carring anything), Flats (steal) and Fridge (Tesco etc etc) all (except container) owned by another company who we ‘pull’ for.

Sweets, sweets, and more sweets… Oh, and some days I drive sweets… :wink:

Yup, I drive those nasty bars of chocolate around that give you lots of energy - they do take an awful lot of it to shift, too…

20 tonnes of strapped and bolted down concrete slabs plus a water tank to regulate the weight, all riding in a red GT Fruehauf tri-axle curtainsider bearing the names of two well known transport magazines. Rides like a dream through the bends thanks to a very low centre of gravity :smiley:

I’m usually hauling a load of furniture that gets delivered to private addresses all over the Home Counties and London.It can be hard work sometimes but it keeps me fairly fit(ish) !

Yet another container bod, I’m afraid… :sunglasses:

26 Pallet loads of MFCs. Fax machines and the like, fully freighted at 19000 KGs. Rarely out of top gear! It’s a doddle, you can keep yer trampin’. :smiley: :smiley: :wink:

Sorry to confuse you but we’re in the parcel game! North West UK is the area I’m from - perhaps you should have been a detective!!!

Now I really am confused :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:

Until the last few weeks it was all supermarket NDC’s with ambient goods but now I do cardboard and packaging on another one of our contracts.

And I like the NDC work better :laughing: :laughing:

We still do anything that will fit on the trailer back home though :unamused:

Mainly airfreight deliveries and collections, so can be anything that will fit on the truck. (and several attempts to deliver and collect stuff that wont fit on the truck) :frowning: I do a lot of collections of JCB components from places all over the place for the JCB plant in the USA.

Strangest collection was a full coffin from Derby to Birmingham Airport which was going to Ireland for the funeral.
