Well it may be hard to believe but its 2 years since the Tremcard was banished to the dustbin of history to be replaced by the all-encompassing “Instruction in Writing”.
It may not be popular or informative and many couriers and haulage companies are still asking for a “proper” Tremcard but they are here to stay so we’ve just got to get used to it.
The good news is that once you have one you don’t have to worry about the next load, the bad news is that they do change from time to time.
That time is now as the new ADR for 2011 came into use at the beginning of January and, yes you’ve guessed it, they have amended the Instructions in Writing. It is still a 4-part set but quite a lot of the content has changed so the easiest thing to do is to throw out the old ones and start again with a new set. We are currently in the transition phase which lasts until 30th June 2011 so there is still plenty of time to get organised and order your new set.
