Before long, more vehicles and staff arrived and the parking space became too small, so the business had to move from the kitchen at home in Donington, to a rented yard in Swineshead. A portacabin office was put on site and the possibility for real expansion could be seen.

In 1991 the family (yes, two sons had arrived in the last 3 years) moved to a house on the Swineshead site, purchased the yard and, with an ever increasing customer base, David Andrew Haulage was becoming well established. (The term ‘Light Haulage’ had to be dropped due to the increased size of vehicles). The business was also gaining a reputation locally for reliability and quality service and a transport manager was employed to help David in his now permanent office role. It is also significant that around this time, the first fridge box was purchased, enabling refrigerated deliveries, and marking the beginning of what is now the mainstay of the business.
