Tom Leddy acquired 'Spence Haulage' back in 1968 from two brothers who lived in the village with the surname Spence. Tom bought his first DAF lorry in 1975 and named it after his mum 'Ethel'. Tom's rekindled passion of steam trains in the last 10 yrs has led to the current fleet all called after engine names. Over the years various other makes of lorries have been tried and tested, however the fleet today is 99% DAF - the service and reliability he receives from a DAF vehicle is paramount to the business. The main customer of the business and their requirements to meet the needs of their potato packing company has led to Spence Haulage using a variation of trailers - flats, curtainside and fridge trailers. As well as artics, there has always been a demand for a 6-Wheeler and this one has been specially designed to utilise the space needed for empty potato boxes. Also from the site at Coldstream Road, Swinton, Tom operates a 24Hr Recovery & Repair Service under the name of T & M JETS and TJS Plant Hire. It is a family run business, and although Tom has no plans to retire the seeds have been sown for the future.
