IN RESPONSE…..

This page was setup to highlight the company and the work it does. Mainly for new and old clients.
This page is not part of the growing trend of social media truck-toc and online FB toxicity regarding the transport industry.
I have no idea why the algorithm sent my post far and wide, this was not my intention. I was just having a bad week and a vent.
While I thank you for the support of following me, and the likes, it’s not for negativity and negative comments, or trying to catch me out.
I run the company 💯% fully complaint, cutting no corners. It’s only too evident on FB the consequences if you do.
Iv just spent 2 full days in the workshop, working alongside my fitter, on PMI’s. Removing warn parts, fully servicing every fluid and filter, as it does every 30,000km. Excessive you may say. The truck is a rare low ride 6x2 from Iveco. 460bhp from a 11ltr. I believe maintenance should be preventive, rather than reactive.
The truck travels anywhere in the EU. Yes breakdowns occur, but preventing a major breakdown can be done in the workshop with regular service intervals. Many an argument with dealers tell me the oil is good for 100,000km. Not when the truck has been working at full weight, or in Italian 43deg heat climbing the alps.
Oil goes off, it’s also full of carbon deposits which in my opinion will damage the engine long term. Regular flushing keeps the engine fresh. It’s the main powerhouse and it needs looking after.
I used to own two trucks, as you can see, Iv also owned a DAF. For all the negativity regarding Iveco, on my spreadsheet the figures don’t lie, it’s the cheapest truck to run Iv owned by a long shot. And when dealing with Guest dealerships, the parts service has been excellent.
The Merc 480 13ltr was a brilliant truck, you could literally throw anything at it. The torque was stunning! However, service, parts and diagnostics were a pain, and the costs were off the charts. I sold it as it needed an expensive repair (ABS module, £2.5k,+£1k fitting) which was a repair too far in this current economic environment.
So I’m down to my trusty old Iveco, which I love driving.
Many people, espouse the virtues of Cummins, CAT, Scania engines. No one talks about Magirus Engines (the 520 17ltr Eurostar was a monster!) these engines are tried and tested. They also make the best air cooled engines. I had a 30yr old blower trailer with a Magirus engine, just kept on working, day in day out.

Any further negativity will be removed and blocked.

Happy Trucking

Another load on! Bit bloody heavy 😩….I suppose we can’t have light loads all the time 🙄🫤🤪
First company Iv been to where the FLT driver that loaded me was not at all put off or perplexed by the trailer. Nearly every company I go to in this country I’m moaned at…”don’t want that foreign sh… in here” on more than one occasion.
So it was a pleasant load with an FLT driver that knew what he was doing 🙏
Why can’t they all be like that? 🤷‍♂️

So after months of doing General Haulage, mainly with the Euroliner, but as you see, also with the box, this is Sainsbury’s Stoke.
The UK transport sector is on its knees. Never have I grafted so much for so little, and not just monetary value. The absolute disrespect from the people who work alongside us in the sector. It makes me wonder how the UK transport sector functions at all!
Never been infantilised so much as these last few months.
Here we have 14 pallets going in, one is rejected. After 3hrs (in a drivers room with no phone signal) Not a care in the world what that means for me the haulier.
Many people question why I like Europe so much. Because here, it’s not my problem, there it’s, there’s a problem how can we fix it attitude.
It’s left me questioning why after nearly 30yrs in the industry I’m still here, battling away.
I have one short tour to France in June and during that time I will do some serious soul searching….whether I continue or not. Because at the moment, the UK transport sector is broken, and I’m broken.

Sampling the delights of Lymm. By far thé worst truck stop in the country. Only place to sit and eat in the warm, Costa. Cafe closed off. Security is zero, so very rarely park in here overnight. Moto has certainly run this place into the ground, yet the cost to park in these facilities continues to climb. Think the only people that benefit from these wonderful facilities are Moto shareholders
