Episode 8

As the sun rises, the fleet of over 400 trucks are already clocking up the miles. The company's heart might be in South Wales, but nearly 300 miles away, truck driver Tigger is battling her way through the medieval streets of York. As a tramper, she's away all week living in her cab. Today she's headed to a chocolate factory to load up her trailer and she's in for an unexpected treat.

While most of the company's trucks are delivering goods up and down the country, they also have a local waste and recycling division processing up to 20,000 tonnes of waste every year. Veteran trucker Jason is out on the recycling run around Llanelli with his partner-in-grime, his 17-year-old son Kieran. After 20 years of driving HGVs long haul, he's decided to change lanes. And his new job also comes with perks, whether it's a perfectly good gazebo someone has thrown away or a bit of bonus cake from a favourite customer. Jason treats his bins like children - he even gives them names!

Back at HQ, MD Ian's stress levels are up. He's ordered 40 brand new greener trucks that can run on hydrogenated vegetable oil. But there's been a hold up on the parts needed to build them due to the Ukraine war - added to which, they're £30,000 more expensive – for each truck!

When the first of the trucks eventually arrives, company stalwart and long-time trucker The Donk pops into see what all the fuss is about. The new hi-tech trucks are fitted with cameras in place of mirrors to increase visibility – but The Donk is not convinced.
