Spoke with a gentleman called Gary? Absolutely appalling service - These guys are freight forwarders and literally shop around for the best deals - In my case they cancelled a booking with a shipper and then decided to go for a cheaper one and charged me the exact same.
Gary was very blunt and rude - He needs to sort himself out. I have no idea why people think it's okay to speak to others like absolute dirt!!!
It appears that the older generation certainly have a chip on their shoulder. Sort your staff out - I'll be taking my 40 containers elsewhere you absolute horrible company.

An odd place to receive 44 tonne vehicles, but this place has been here years now. Often there is a que in a narrow road and you may have to park on the pavement. Approach the premesis directly FROM Thornton road. You will need both sides of Thornton road just to turn into the street where the gate is if you are driving a 44 tonnes. Your reversing skills need to be reasonable to back the vehicle into the yard. Tipping is by fork and bays are available for back doors, but is not the norm.
