July 2020 - Tim Krul Player of the Season

Fri, 24 Jul 2020 09:18:57 GMT

A tough season for the Canaries has meant relegation from the Premier League. However, in a season where the quality of the younger players in the squad has often made the headlines, it is a more senior first team member that has been recognised by the fans and the club for his performances on the pitch. Tim Krul came to Norwich after a hiatus in his career where he found himself, having recovered form injury, unable to force himself into the starting 11 for his then team Brighton. A move to Norwich reignited his career and his performances have made him a firm favourite with the fans. Starlings Transport are proud to sponsor Norwich City's Player of the Season.

May 2020 - Covid-19 Update

Tue, 05 May 2020 12:14:42 GMT

No change to our service, just a change in how we deliver it.

THE Pallet Network Ltd and its members, together with the Association of Pallet Networks issued guidance in March regarding the handling of electronic proof of delivery devices (ePODs) and delivery notes in order to deal with the threat of disease transmission. It was agreed that in order to safeguard both employees and customers that the industry as a whole would no longer insist on consignees signing either the ePOD or paperwork as a proof of delivery, instead drivers simply take the name of the consignee, and the time and date of delivery are electronically added at the point of delivery. If customer's own paperwork is required to be signed we advise consignors attach the paperwork in a docs enclosed wallet and request that the consignee signs and then sends either the original or an electronic copy to the consignor. Just one of the steps we are taking to keep you and your customers safe whilst still delivering the excellent service levels we are renowned for.
