This should help you finding places. If you see a Postman /parcelforce van nearby - Ask. They 99% of the time know the place as they will have probably delivered to them before. Another good idea is for finding homes (with names) etc is a planning portal. EG like Manchester Planning Map (or whatever area / county you're in) Search the local planning Map and you will also see hard to find places. Hope this helps. 👍

[@joshhowells912]

That's a really handy tip!

[@RobertMihalache]

Thanks a lot for that tip mate really helpful!

[@RobertMihalache]

Yes it is indeed Cheers

[@SquireDAF]

I still got to pass my class 2, but knowing pallet work likely one of the first jobs, getting lost and not finding werid places is a big worry so that's an awesome tip!

[@GrumpysWorkshop4]

Mate I can honestly say I watched the intire video & really enjoyed it. Most hgv vloggers miss out the stressful parts. Your video shows exactly what can happen on this type of job. When I drove trucks I had plenty of days like yours & it can be so stressful. Thanks for sharing

[@RobertMihalache]

Hi mate. Thanks a lot for dropping by and I really apreciate your feedback. Thank you. I am glad that you do understand exactly what I want to show everyone, it is all about reality. I have subscribed to your channel and would be watching when I will have some spare time. Kind regards. Take care mate

[@ruthbees7214]

I feel for you chum. When it gets dark it's a different ball game altogether. Cannot see to reverse. Cannot see buildings names to see where you are. I hated delivering in the dark that's when accidents happen.❤Ruth

[@saeedporfahimi5784]

Good job mate ,what ever you do it’s a good tips for me as a new driver thank you

[@RobertMihalache]

Glad to help you with anything I can

[@marekmagdziak5916]

Awesome!

[@RobertMihalache]

Thanks!

[@Trav-the-trucker]

Interesting videos mate, I did pallet network deliveries for 8 years and it can be demanding especially deliveries to houses where the communication between the shipper and the end customer can be misunderstood. They will often tell the receiving customer the driver will lift everything into your house no problem and unload a full pallet of bricks by hand into the back of your garden but the company you drive for operate a kerbside service. Over the years I had many angry customer demanding I shift 4 pallets of Grass/turf or 1 tonne bags of gravel to the rear of the house on the pallet truck when most of the time or was a struggle to get it off the tail lift onto the footpath. Also Google maps in satellite View is Fantastic for finding a lot of places as you can enter the business name into the Search bar.👍

[@RobertMihalache]

Of course they will lie the customer with all the necessery lifting and manouvering just to obtain their trust and their money and after that we as drivers get all the crap and all the blame unfortunately.... Thanks a lot mate for tips. I am glad that you did understand why I did have such a reaction for finding that place :) Thanks a lot for support and you are very welcome to be here. Kind regards

[@Trav-the-trucker]

@@RobertMihalache yes I fully understand, my 8 years taught me a lot about finding difficult addresses and how to find different ways to get very heavy pallets off the tail lift but the constant strain of tiles, bricks and gravel on a pallet truck caused me to Hernias and a neck injury requiring surgery and metal plate and screws in my neck so decided it was time to move on to class 1 work. 👍

[@RobertMihalache]

I HAVE GOT LOADS OF RESPECT FOR YOU MATE! HONESTLY BIG RESPECT!

[@Trav-the-trucker]

Thanks Robert, keep them good videos coming 👍

[@RobertMihalache]

Will do soon mate

[@MyPocketPlanner]

Great video 😊👍👏

[@RobertMihalache]

Thank you 🤗

[@itsonlyme458]

Loving your way of thinking at 46:06: Give them the item then f*ck off!

[@joshhowells912]

Great video Robert (: Didn't have the best day, lots of Romanian talking when you are angry :D

[@RobertMihalache]

It's just the reality I say what I feel most of the time :) I can't hold it...

[@ericwalsh3200]

The pallet network nightmare

[@RobertMihalache]

Sometimes I guess it is.

[@deane9050]

Hi Robert, why didnt the FL driver position the pallets between the strap anchors , there was plenty of room to move the pallets between them? Headscratcher Robert and great vlog again.

[@RobertMihalache]

Thanks mate. I guess he wanted to finish his job and then to get home lol

[@lukem5522]

how come you did the vehicle check after you got loaded and strapped down? I have always checked my vehicle before loading, saves any hassle incase the vehicle is not safe for road

[@RobertMihalache]

I have had a look at the vehicle before I have started recording. Even if you do the checks before you still need to check after you safely secure your load, i think it will be something with load security or safely. I forgot exactly the name of it but I think you will know what I mean. Cheers pal

[@nathanmayer711]

"Nobody drives me nuts it's not a propper day" 🤣

[@RobertMihalache]

🤣

[@ericwalsh3200]

Will not do pallet network if they pay double

[@RobertMihalache]

It depends. It might be a lot better if you know where you going.

[@marktucker208]

Man i think im too lazy to be a truck driver, all that moving pallets around

[@RobertMihalache]

Up to you pal 👍👍

[@villeporttila5161]

Robert were you down in Surrey today? Thought I spotted you in the Pets Direct lorry

[@RobertMihalache]

Hi mate no I haven’t. I do something different now. Unfortunately i haven’t been to surrey from very long time

[@edwardvalentine376]

O.S.G would of helped you bang in the postcode match with satnav all good

[@RobertMihalache]

yeah

[@BambiVideos]

Hey mate, use DelM8 my drivers swear by it basically pinpoint a location based on the postcode also my company is looking for drivers if you go on DX careers it’s a shit place but at least you won’t have to do agency work

[@RobertMihalache]

Hi mate 👍 I have applied my CV to DX nearly 2 years ago and not even today haven’t received phone call

[@BambiVideos]

@@RobertMihalache yeah mate as I said they crap 😂 I’m not a driver but I’ve been there a year still don’t have uniform or my own security pass 😂 which location did you apply for?

[@RobertMihalache]

sounds like it honestly I have heard other people complaining about them but you never know it might be a different depot lol I have applied for the one in Trafford Park, Manchester

[@BambiVideos]

@@RobertMihalache yeah they aren’t the best for looking after workers and drivers ahhhh I work at Nuneaton so I’m guessing all depot are kinda like that

[@RobertMihalache]

so what DX is doing home deliveries for IKEA?

[@kingston6498]

What agency are u with

[@landy477]

That looked stressful, how many hours a day do you work ?

[@BurritoSenor]

No idea but probably 8-11

[@RobertMihalache]

depends on the job usually between 9 and 15 hours depending on what days I have worked, area, wtd, driving hours, etc. That's agency work, but of course there are some jobs that you work less hours depending on what you want, money or spare time ?

[@RobertMihalache]

depends on the job usually between 9 and 15 hours depending on what days I have worked, area, wtd, driving hours, etc.

[@johnhall3827]

it is your license and livelihood at stake that is what worries me the reliance on others e.g companies that hire you through a third party. for ease of firing you and not giving a dame about equipment or vehicle .
