A day in the life with Pete Hughes one of our drivers

[@JALOPPY]

He's a real asset to the company. Good that he's found a firm that looks after him 👍

[@buddybearruby]

Great content! I love seeing videos paying respect to our heroes in high vis. My uncle Derek died while on duty as a bin man. crushed by a Mercedes Econic Faun Variopress with Zoeller Rotary lifts. I miss him every day and salute every binman I see. stay safe on the job and keep up the good work

This would make a good mini series and educate people on waste management

[@tonyl1984]

The owners should keep him on part time (he wanted to) maybe driver training or something similar since hes been there 15 years or so, loyal staff member

Hi Pete, I’m just in the process of doing my CPC I took my first 7hr class 2 weeks ago, I’m doing the odd day for a local skip company all local work driving a 3.5 ton, once I do my CPC I’ll be able to drive the 7.5 and 10 ton truck, can I ask how does the EU driving law apply as your not constantly driving as a normal HGV driver would, am I lead to believe that driving a skip truck you can work upto 6hrs with a 15 min break in between the to take 30 mins in the next 3 hrs taking you up to 9hrs total or do you just have the 45 mins after your 4.5 hrs… thanks any body not just Pete if they could help with advice

[@floriniacob2040]

4.5h driving goes with 45 min break 6h working goes with 30 min break.... Two different scenarios :).....
