so they have some old trucks they want to sell and think it would be nice to get some o/d’s to subsidise their business by not paying them when the work gets quiet
What was the job rate ?
Think about it, they’re not doing it for charity ! They will be doing it because it makes financial sense … for them !!
denis ,there gar you work,its not going to go quiet,there saying youll make a profit,yes youll not make what there going to make,but at least youll make a profit[time will tell how much
You’d make a good OD actually - believing all the BS that you’re told and thinking it’s the path to great riches. Why don’t you do it and then post a diary here on your progress. In fact I’d pay to read that.
But probably not enough to make it worthwhile
£2,600 for doing what you already do,id say its easy money,and you also get thekudos of being not your average run of the meal truck driver,but a SUPER TRUCKER,from now on im not a stobart driver,im a STOBART SUPER DRIVER,it was along haul but at last im there,at the pinnicale of truck driving
up-date ,couldnt give any real answer to me on wether id get a van or expenses to do the job ,going to find out ,but as there daft enough to give me £2,600 p.a for doing what i already do they might just be daft enough to give me a van/expenses for doing the journey i already do in my own car/own expense,worth asking,you never know

Also, there’s sometimes a clause that states you cannot haul for other firms. They don’t want you earning from their truck when they don’t get a cut It can be more like a franchise than being a true o/d.
how many more times wheelnut ,there gar you work ,youll not need to haul for anyone else
Try reading straight, that was in reply to somebody asking what would happen IF there wasn’t enough work - would they be allowed to haul for others.

You can say it as many times as you like but the fact remains that there is no such thing as guaranteed work in this game. They can tell you all they want that it is guaranteed but you can bet your bottom dollar that if they go quiet or there is a contract loss that you’ll be out on your ear. You won’t get it in writing, that’s almost certain and if you do it won’t be that they guarantee enough to make a profit, just enough to stop you defaulting on the payments you owe them for the truck and diesel…

1 to me
Sorry didn’t make it clear, made a good wage…But NO profit to re-invest thats why he packed in. Could make as much driving for someone else without the hassle.

Well get your [zb] name down then! You’re another of the “I know best” brigade so get on with it and show us how it’s done instead of talking about it.

You are best with a realistic attitude rather than either a positive or negative one.
It is not a good time to enter the road haulage industry.

Did you hear that Ady? I have worked for myself for years - but you’re not being offered TRUE self employed status - you are still working for Stobarts. Haven’t you got guaranteed work already? So where is the difference? And I know YOU can’t do it - that was aimed at the trampers
