SRS Blog > UK lorry driver shortage

Published 9th September 2021

Topics: Announcements.
As widely reported in recent news, there is currently a nationwide shortage of HGV drivers in the United Kingdom. This has filtered down to many retailers, including us here at Station Road Steam. We're working hard to limit the impact this has on our customers - the van's been out for four days out of five this week! - but our pallet deliveries are currently experiencing delays of up to ten days due to backlogs at our local pallet depots.
 
We're monitoring the situation closely, and will announce any changes as soon as we hear of them - in the meantime, thanks for bearing with us.
