Private hauliers

Post by janitor »

Have RM started using other companies to move mail around, I was driving through Newport (I.O.W) yesterday and see a RM trailer being pulled by a contract haulage tractor unit. This might just be an island thing but was unusual to see just the same. A one off or the shape of things to come.

The Isle of Wight trailers are put on the ferry by RM logistics, but taken off by contractor.
