Anyone who knows us knows we don’t take many holidays… and when we do, we somehow still end up surrounded by engines 😂

Our annual Silverstone trip, and this time we’re staying at Escapade Silverstone. Honestly, the accommodation is stunning. Sitting right trackside, watching the cars from the balcony with everything Silverstone literally on the doorstep… it doesn’t get much better for us.

We weren’t really sure what to expect before we got here, but the whole place is so well done. The apartment is beautiful and the trackside setting just makes it. Definitely glad we decided to give it a try.

A few days away from trucks and trailers, but clearly we can’t manage a proper holiday without something mechanical being involved 😂

Big bro & little bro

With another employee now in our workshop, we’ve added a second breakdown van to the fleet.

So that’s now two of us out covering breakdowns — although one van has definitely had more weetabix than the other!

Both are ready to get you moving when things go wrong. They’re still waiting on their livery facelifts, but for now they’re out doing what they do best.

Working hours and on-call:

The standard working week is 45 hours, Monday to Friday.

Shift pattern:
Monday to Friday, 07:30–17:00

There will be the occasional Saturday required, only where the workload dictates it, and you will be included in an on-call rota once every 3 weeks.

When on call, you will receive a weekly on-call payment.

What we offer:

Competitive pay
45-hour working week
Company van provided

What Have We Been Up To? 🤭🤔

We’ve been busy behind the scenes investing in better equipment to improve the services we can offer our customers — and we’re excited to share our latest upgrade!

We now have a brand new HGV Roller Brake Tester installed in our workshop 🥳 this means we can

✅ Accurately measure braking performance on heavy goods vehicles
✅ Identify imbalances or weak braking before they become costly problems
✅ Ensure your vehicle meets DVSA safety standards
✅ Carry out thorough brake diagnostics quickly and efficiently

Brakes are one of the most critical safety components on any HGV. Regular, professional brake testing:

• Keeps your drivers safe
• Protects other road users
• Prevents unexpected downtime
• Saves money by catching issues early
• Keeps your fleet compliant and roadworthy

A huge thank you to all our customers — both our OG loyal supporters and the new businesses who’ve recently joined us. Your continued trust and support allow us to keep investing, improving, and expanding what we can offer. We truly appreciate every single one of you 🙌

Hi 👋 👋

We know we only seem to pop up once in a blue moon these days 😅 purely down to how busy we’ve been – but we couldn’t let Christmas pass without wishing you all a Merry Christmas🎄

It’s been a busy, busy year and we are beyond grateful to every single customer who’s supported us. We honestly wouldn’t be here without you.

DG also treated himself to a new van a few months back so keep an eye out for it in the New Year once it’s glammed up!

🎉 We’re 2 Years Old Today! 🎉

Happy Business Birthday to us

Two years ago today, DG Commercials Ltd officially came to life — and what an incredible journey it’s been so far.

From day one, we made the decision to grow slowly, with care, focusing on quality, consistency, and trust. It hasn’t always been easy, but every challenge has helped shape us, and every success has reminded us why we started this in the first place.

💛 To our customers — Your support, loyalty, recommendations, and kind words have helped us grow more than we ever imagined. Whether you've been with us from day one or only just discovered DG, we are genuinely grateful for each and every one of you. You've trusted us with your business, and that trust means the world.

🙏 Thank you for choosing us. Thank you for coming back. Thank you for helping us learn, improve, and push forward. We simply couldn’t have done it without you.

A massive shout-out goes to DG, the man himself — his hard work, long hours, and dedication are the engine that keeps everything moving forward. 💪

As we celebrate this milestone, we’re more motivated than ever to keep growing, learning, and serving you even better in the years ahead.

Here’s to the next chapter!

DG took a little time off to join the annual bike run—one of the best weekends of the year!

Now back and ready to get back at it!

When DG’s had one of those weeks... 😅

If he's not blasting down roads on the motorbike 🏍 you’ll find him doing this instead…

🔧 Monday to Friday: Fixing everything but the kitchen sink.
💆‍♂️ Saturday/Sunday: Stealing the wife's skincare

Apparently, this is how legends unwind these days 🤷🏻‍♀️

We don't ask questions 🤔✨

🚛💥 DIRTY DIESEL STRIKES AGAIN! 💥🚛

Check out what we pulled from one of our recent jobs! The fuel filter was completely clogged, and the diesel tank had a nasty buildup of sludge and contamination. This is a classic case of dirty diesel causing havoc.

✅ Tank drained and thoroughly cleaned
✅ Filters replaced
✅ System refilled with fresh, clean fuel

🔧 Preventative maintenance like this keeps your HGVs running efficiently and avoids costly breakdowns. If you haven’t checked your fuel system in a while—now’s the time!

📍 Drop in or give us a call to book your vehicle in today.
