Delivery’s Snow Problem for Arthur David

It’s 3am, and all’s quiet on a cold and crisp January morning. The night Care Manager looks out of the window across the fields of his remote Care Home, and then looks again…it’s a lot lighter than it was…it’s snowing, and it’s snowing hard. Hard enough to make driving hazardous, if not impossible, and that could be a serious problem.

It’s at times like these that thoughts immediately turn to the welfare of the residents and making sure that nothing happens to threaten them, and of course ensuring heat and food tops these concerns. There was enough for breakfast, but what about lunch, and dinner – and the next day if it continued snowing.

What to do?

The answer? One call to the office at Arthur David and that Care Manager’s mind was put at rest. Although the van driver on his run had already called in to report hat the route was impassable for his vehicle, the office was able to assure him that the delivery would be made by one of our fleet of specially adapted 4×4 vehicles.

Lunch would be served after all. And dinner.

Our vehicle arrived in time with the main delivery, but the even better news was that the team at the depot had managed to add several other products, products that the Care Home’s usual supplier had failed to deliver, because snow stopped them.
