HALSALL'S DECEMBER '24 SCHEDULE

Barren winter, with his wrathful nipping cold; … the icy fang and churlish chiding of the winter's wind…

Winter has arrived with a bang! This month our plan is to hopefully take advantage of the little gap in the stoppages as jobs are completed on tge Shroppie & new ones commence on the Staffs & Worcs, so hopefully we can make a full circumnavigation of the Four Counties Ring 😅.

Our aim for a December schedule is as follows:-
30th -3rd Northwich area to Middlewich (loading 3rd @ Anderton)
4th - 5th Wheelock & Hardingswood Jn
6 - 8th Stoke, Stone, Great Haywood, Penkridge (Lock 40 Parkgate stoppage begins Mon 9th Dec 8am)
9 - 11th: Gailey, Autherly, Wheaton Aston & Norbury to Tyrley
12 - 13th: Market Drayton, Audlem, Nantwich to Calverly
14 - 15th Tattenhall to Christleton (wind) & back to Barbridge
16-th Middlewich
17th - 20th Northwich area.
(If get behind schedule, we'll do Bunbury to Christleton by road as back up)

Road deliveries (Four Counties area) :-
River Weaver 5/6th
Adderley- Audlem 10 /11th
Nantwich & Middlewich Branch 12 /13th
Chester & Ellesmere Port 16 /17th
River Weaver 19/20tth.

As you can see this is a tough schedule to hit, so please help us by pre ordering when possible & by being patient if our plan slips a bit, as always it's not exact as it can vary due to stoppages, customer demand, weather conditions etc. To place an order please text us on 07491 149149. Cheers, Team Halsall, Rachel, Ian & Finn
