McMurrays Haulage is a family-owned transport & distribution company, long-established in Accrington since 1971.

They deliver goods throughout the UK, Ireland and Europe and also provide warehousing services. They have maintained their excellent service record and continued to invest and expand in recent times - a record £3m in 2021, which included new fleet and a 50th Anniversary liveried truck.

The latest expansion for McMurrays is a £1.1m investment in a brand new building, some extra 28,000 square feet which will be dedicated to a new warehouse area, offices, and enhanced driver and staff facilities. The building work has commenced and is expected to be completed by July 2022. The new facility is designed to help the expansion of their pallet network, and groupage operation.

Rob Spencer, commercial manager said: "We're expanding again, and that means we need more great people to join our team."

The following roles are ready to start asap:

Customer Service Administrator Apprentice Counter Balance FLT operative with car licence Class One Day Drivers Class One Night Drivers Class Two Day Drivers

"We're also looking for Trainee C 1 & 2 drivers, so we'd urge them to contact us as well. All our drivers are well treated, fully uniformed and carry company mobile phones, and we reward their commitment to our customers. If you know of anyone who fits the bill, tell them to get in touch!"

David McMurray, managing director, added: "Our employees tell us we're an excellent place to work, which is backed up by the fact that lots of them have been with us long-term.

"We are looking for reliable and hardworking individuals to support our growth, and we will continue to invest and expand as we grow together as a team. I'm proud of everything we've achieved so far, and this new building will help us take McMurray's to the next stage!"

McMurrays uses modern, state-of-the-art vehicles and equipment. They have an excellent training programme and competitive salaries. If you know of anyone who would fit the bill, encourage them to join the team!
