[Behind the scenes] - Where we find lorry curtains?

It's a question we get asked a lot. "Where do all these lorry curtains come from?" The honest answer is... everywhere. We receive emails and phone calls on a regular basis about lorry curtains going to waste. We ask for pictures and then arrange a pallet collection and delivery. 

We thought it would be a good idea to share some of the images of the trailer curtains that we discover from around the UK. As you can imaging folding a 40ft piece of plastic with metal buckles, reinforcing, stainless steel runners and covered in oil and grease isn't an easy task.
