Glassworks, business parks and the colliery site: WF11 trade drops
The glassworks are large industrial sites, so a delivery there needs the right entrance, a goods-in contact and an expected arrival time agreed in advance. Units at the A1 Business Park and the business parks around Ferrybridge are smaller, and a named person to sign for the goods saves waiting at a closed door. Konect62 carries a WF11 8 postcode but sits over the boundary in North Yorkshire, so give the unit number as well as the postcode.
In town, the Hill Top shops and The Arcade sit on the A645, where stopping outside is awkward. A drop there is best made early or from the side street behind. For repeat work between sites, such as stock moving between a Knottingley unit and a Leeds or Wakefield one, a standing slot can be agreed, with the same fixed price each time.
