S&J European Haulage Ltd was founded by Steve and Jane Haines in 1980, initially specialising in express movements on small vans throughout the UK and Europe. Today, they boast a fleet of 35 trucks from 7.5 tonners to 44 tonne artics and roadtrains and over 30 trailers, distributing throughout the UK and Ireland.

The business has moved twice during its expansion within Melton town, and now employs over 60 staff, both coordinating overnight pallet deliveries through the PALLETFORCE network, of whom S&J became a shareholder member in 2007, and a dedicated Irish team who coordinate full loads to Eire.

This lorry, a Scania R Series coupled with a 13.6 metre curtainsider is one of four S&Js vehicles advertising The Sunrise Express to the Emerald Isle motto, providing overnight service to Northern Ireland and Eire. An average of over 40 trailers depart S&J for Ireland completing groupage and full loads, each week.
