Qualified competent attendants

Mike and Jayne Carter, long time supporters of the OSBPG Charity, are happy to lend a hand for those seeking transportation services for the movement of pigs.

● Mike and Jayne have a 750kg trailer and are both qualified competent attendants and have breakdown cover for both trailer and vehicle which includes recovering of trailers including livestock. ● In addition, Mike is also a HGV driver (retired from the Army and use to driving heavy vehicles) and travels extensively up and down the country.

The logistics would be as follows:

● movement starts from Mike and Jayne (Wigan) to point of collection to point of delivery and return back to Wigan.

Trailer details is as follows:

● Small trailer max 750kg = 1 large pig male/female, or two 6 month old pigs, or 6/8 weaners. This trailer can be partitioned into 2 sections to carry one of either sex of medium size pig and weaners. ● Small trailer cost would be 50p per mile + VAT billed to purchaser. And if you qualify for the GSA you may also use it in connection with the movement.

Requirements

● It would be advantageous to have an idea of weight of each animal being transported in the event of multiple pigs being moved.. ● Loading and unloading would be the responsibility of the vendor/purchaser. In addition to the above we have copies of Mike and Jayne hauliers licence and their driver/attendants certificates for movement of livestock Category 1 up to 8hrs.
