I was wondering if any of the site members that work regularly in the Stockport area have any contacts for a reliable grab wagon driver that they are willing too share with me.
My regular guy from Wigan is on holiday, and im planning on starting the job next week.
And I don’t fancy getting my pants pulled down over the price of shifting 30ton of spoil in skips.
PM me names and numbers, if any one can help please.

The job’s in Offerton just off Torkington Road.
I laid a drive opposite the one im starting next week 2 months ago, and the spoil was complete shite, thick heavy clay full of all sorts of cack. So im guessing this one will be the same, but PM me your number and if the spoil isn’t crap I will give you a bell.

I alwasy used http://www.cheadleskips.com/ They will drop you quality MOT1nd Marshalls Grit sand too. Havent worked over there for a couple of years but they used to have one mental driver that would get about 30t on a load, always a bonus!

One of the south manchester based skip and grab wagon drivers will do a foreigner run on his tacho off hour for £100 my mates have used that before. I drive along torky rd everyday, if we weren't mentally busy I'd drop you a 14 ton trailer as we have fill job on in Poyton up the rd we'll be filling it for the next 5 years I reckon.

Hope Vosa don't go scanning forums, or the above mentioned firm could be in for some close looking at!

He must be driving an old vehicle becasue you couldnt get away with that on a digital tacho. What a whopper
