About the show
Eddie Stobart: Trucks & Trailers features some of the day-to-day activities of the Stobart Group, the UK logistics company, with a particular focus on its Eddie Stobart road haulage division.

This highly popular observational documentary featuring haulage firm Eddie Stobart shows Stobart's Haulage, Rail and Air divisions. The programme joins the drivers as they take on the challenges of delivering everything from the new pitch at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium, to a London Landmark – the famous Piccadilly lights. The show is sometimes viewed as 'sensationalist' due to its dramatic narration style. The series also meets a new breed of drivers, as 20 young lads compete to win a place on the firm's coveted apprenticeship scheme.

The first four series saw the programme reach the top 10 of watched programmes for Channel 5, with the final two episodes of Series 2 taking first and second places for the week ending 3 July 2011.

A seventh series titled Eddie Stobart's Excellent Adventures shows a selection of memorable journeys from the previous series.
