So my 3 year old daughter wakes up & I tell her what day it is, she says "Daddy, today is the digger truck man..we must watch the digger truck man" 😂😂😂 happy new year Ashville gang 🥳🥳🥳

[@Bottom_G690]

So wholesome

[@FlamingBasketballClub]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@GyalLikeChelley]

awww too cute!

[@Legomaster2211.]

‘The truck man’ 🤣

[@bmwguy22]

I think we should all say well done to Noel as he has been fixing the Ashville fleet for I don’t know how long.

[@thomasrussell1272]

I should hope he also gets a nice big bonus aswell especially for having to work out in all weathers

[@clifbradley]

It's 3am here in the states. Whoa Daniel! This is SERIOUS! BUT WHEN MY FAVORITE SUPERHERO 'THE AGGREGATOR' releases a video, I must watch it. Cause we are a serious fan base. We are Ashville people.

[@FaresDjebbar]

Aggregator! That's a cool nickname!

[@Camberwell86]

I saw your Hermes nightmare beginning when matey took 1000 parcels in about 66 trips in like 2 hours flat lol. You KNOW they were getting thrown about bags in Heathrow Terminal 4 at the other end. Never seen a driver so eager to ram them in and kick the doors shut. I know freelance delivery drivers get paid per parcel so this suggests the drivers are probably paid by how many they collect too. If he was on a flat hourly rate he would've done one ton sack and you wouldn't have seen him again that night. He was like "yeah gimme more gimme more I'll be back in 5 minutes" 😅 He broke all your gear and got paid a fortune for it lol 😦

[@islamicshorts2257]

As an e-commerce seller for the past decade, I've found having a Hermes Business Account can significantly improve service experience. Having parcels collected in an arctic, directly pipelined into their logistics network. If anything goes wrong, you get in touch with your business account manager. Over the past 3 years we've had little to no problems with Hermes, turning over 50k parcels annually.

[@graememorgan9278]

Not in your league bit I've sent 50-60 parcels by Hermes and never had a problem

[@islamicshorts2257]

​@joey lol, just sharing my experiences. I don't work for Hermes.

[@wildbillkennedy6345]

My hermes driver kept taking photos saying we was not in because she was to lazy to walk up my driveway anyway I saw here in the village smallfield and walked up to her asking for my 8 month olds Xmas presents and she aimed for me with her car and hit me knocking me on to the side of her car the police is now investigating

[@adriandukes7690]

I hope Hermes compensates you on all off your broken merchandise and gives you a hand written apology

[@carlwicks2088]

I proper fanboyed your Concrete lorry earlier. I'm a taxi driver from a small town in Lincolnshire, I was on a Heathrow job and was hoping to see a wagon. Just as I was coming off my junction for terminal 5 , one was coming on M25 clockwise. I was sooo happy. Made my day 🥰🥰

[@mitchellcerisola3562]

It was fantastic to meet you after the QPR VS Bournemouth game! Shame about the result. Your such a genuine person, honestly you taking the time out to actually speak to me and my family was heart warming! I wish you all the success in 2022 and every year following!!

[@flange06joj]

Alarm bells were ringing when they initially came to pick all your deliveries up in that Berlingo van. Everyone knows Hermes are a joke. I dont know how they're still in business

[@mrdando]

I agree but I've never had a problem, impost in owned by hermes so careful with that company

[@wclifton968gameplaystutorials]

Sometimes Hermes can be good but I've heard too many bad things about them so I'm not sure why they didn't go for someone else like DHL? Or the royal mail although I've never had a problem with Hermes...

[@mrdando]

I prefer dpd as a delivery company, like the 1 hour time slots,

[@mixmasterdodger]

This is what I'm talking about... Freighty is like the postman... Wilson is like the milkman.... And we all know about Daniel clause...... These guys always deliver!! ....... Shout out leroy!!

Refreshing seeing a genuine business man who is honest and a great boss. Well done mate, (and you are not even Aussie😀)

Hope everyone enjoyed their Christmas and has a prosperous new year.

[@Lana-ij2ty]

Daniel darling From bottom of my heart I thank you so much for both of the soft toys..you have made my four year old son the happiest human on earth. And I say that with love.. am ur zing and ur never forget that lol 😂

[@elliottheatley200]

what makes ashville so good is your sharing the genuine highs and lows of the company and dan as a person. i am more invested in this channel more than anything i have ever watched on netflix. nothing is ever glossed over its real and raw. other weekly youtube series only to show the highs and the glamour.

[@ferocious5975]

True, you dont see anyone else showing or even mentioning when something goes wrong, this man tells you how and why it happened, real one

[@buddysinsight9834]

Brilliant Daniel you are a total inspiration not just to your mum :) and family but to all the ambitious people out there watching. Remember don’t stress because we are not here for long. I know you see business as a fun game that way it doesn’t cause you to much stress. NICE :).

[@rawdreego]

Love watching this on Sunday’s

[@suhailbhatti2831]

One thing that i notice with the vids is Daniel likes to have banter and a laugh with his employies which shows his character n personality. Also Daniel is hoodrich literally. 🤣🤣🤣 # safeinnit

[@Wetthewhistle]

Genuinely thought everyone knew about Hermes. When Joe public turned up in his private car for the collection it says it all about Hermes as a cowboy operator

[@JulianScouser]

Not really. Amazon use people with own cars and never an issue. Everything about Hermes is shite.

[@Wetthewhistle]

@@JulianScouser Amazon have standards though 😂 they can be contacted aswell.

[@garethjones4897]

I bought my daughter a paramedic in training coat for her birthday end of July, the people I got them off had sent them and low and behold hermes kept them in their local drop off point for 8 weeks! I won't use them at all if I can help it because they are a c**t company Shout out Daniel for doing everything he can for his company and customers though 👌🖤

[@Fast_car1000]

Simon office is immaculate 👌🏾

[@MrMentaldave]

Took me 3 days and 20 try’s but I can finally watch ashville in full and know what’s happening 🙏

[@josephwilliamssr.8770]

Oh yes I've been waiting for this so glad you guys have uploaded a new video, after a not so good holiday things are looking better @Ashville

[@greekgooner]

You and your team around you are smashing it keep the faith man I’ve been watching Ashville since it started and watched you grow as a company and as a person and a team I’ve had a pretty hard year this year a lot going on in home life like everyone but watching and waiting to see what you have been up to this past week gives me something to look forward to I wish people would give you a bit of a break and stop getting on your back progress is key and your making progress especially in the yard after most of your key colleagues was at Yianni’s house build stay true to yourself that’s what matters #keepthefaith

[@chipofftheoldblock1109]

A year of ups and down's Daniel but you have always managed to stay calm and professional, with (mostly) a smile on your face. I've really enjoyed each & every one of your vid's and I look forward to many more this year. I wish you and all your Ashville family a wonderful, happy, and successful 2022. U rrrrrrrrrssssssss!

Great video guys thanks for posting ~ love the music you used when the new liveried lorry arrived back at Ashville HQ it looks fantastic ~ wishing you all a successful and prosperous 2022

[@jimginn7163]

Daniel , go old school and use parcel force! we stopped using "h" because stuff was arriving to customers broken. Not happening with parcel force, might be a bit dearer but when products arrive intact it gets a good feeling and confidence in us!👍👍

[@ianh7469]

Happy new year to everyone. we can't wait for the new content to come every week. keep up the great work guys 👍🏻

[@lpalmer2606]

happy new year and i wish you all the best for 2022, finding the right staff in this industry is very hard, head hunting is rife at the moment so holding on to the good ones can be a challenge, always treat people as you would like to be treated and you will have a fully commited team behind you.keep up the good work.

I am blown away by your approach to problem solving and the way that you take ownership for problems that arise because of a third party letting you down (hermefor one) you treat your customers and KZbin subscribers the way you would want to be treated.

Daniel, you have achieved so much in 2021 despite everything being a struggle. Don,t beat yourself up for the merchandise issue with delivery, you chose an option and it didn’t work out.

[@michaelrussell6661]

Company presentation is paramount, if people and the vehicle's are looked after, customers will want to use that business. Because if that company looks after it's people and equipment, people think the company will look after them. If however the people aint looked after, people see that and go else where.

[@timfenton5153]

Hope you have a good Christmas and Happy New Year, and all the team aswell, looking forward to 2022, thanks

Saw the shovel bucket repair and bucket repairs in #63. If you struggle with lots of maintenance costs you could consider having a polyurethane coating of a few millimeters put in it. Need to keep the cutting edge as wear parts, but the actual bucket itself will last a lot longer. Would work for funnels, hoppers, tippers etc too but I don't know if you have lots of wear in those. Enjoying the vids, keep them coming :)

omfg i did 2 days agency work many many years ago at yodel n they treated parcels exactly the same 😤, on o positive note I'm loving how much the yard has changed from the beginning it's looking serious 💪💪 happy new year to the ashville team, hashtag shout out ashville 🙈😂🤣

THE CONCRETE LORRY WORKS ILEGAL MATE!! I use to work with those machines and I know why that sides was added on ballast side's. They manufactured for 42tons and allowed 37 tons in UK. By added this sides goes up to 56-60 tons and can roll over I've at 10mph on straight surface. Also can't go over any curbside or drainage or small road's because damage everything under his weight "that's why I quit and refuse work with them". Also maximum deliver is is 9-11 m³ but by manipulate balast and rocks tap can obtain I've 15m³ and overload 20m³ or more. Another bad point have around counter sensor witch can add more m³ in computer just by touching sensor with an nail. Good luck with them mate

Used DHL for their excess baggage service London to Ho Chi Minh when the driver arrived and I looked at the heap of parcels in the back I knew what to expect before opening. I wasn't disappointed what wasn't broken was squashed. I flew the above route regularly and was cold called by Air France with a great price on business class, they lost one of my suite cases with lots of great gear inside. Yer they paid up and the clerk said I must be very happy to receive the wad of cash. She was taken aback when I offered it back and said get my suite case. In sentimental value that couldn't be replaced. Dan tell us more about the purple people eater parked against your back wall. Looks like a grading machine that needs work. Stay safe out there. Wear a helmet and tie yer laces.
