The distinctive Eddie Stobart brand makes the company one of the most recognisable haulage firms in the world. Every single day, Eddie Stobart drivers cover the equivalent of the distance to the moon and back three times over. The firm employs more than 5,000 people, who work around the clock to make a delivery every 4.6 seconds, as well as running two ports, two airports and several freight trains. This DVD collection features the complete Channel 5 series of Eddie Stobart Trucks and Trailers in which the international transport company provided exclusive access to its trucks and the people that keep them trucking.

Ian O’Neill gets lost when his sat nav fails him on a run to the Royal Opera House in Covent Garden and he must negotiate a tricky route through the busy London traffic, encountering closed streets and blocked turns as he endeavours to deliver pallets of water in time to quench the thirst of guests attending an award ceremony
Freezing fog in the Pennines threatens to stop Craig Garside delivering a load of loose peat, while Dave Pickerill has two days to make 10 drop-offs around the outskirts of London.
