Go to ambient goods in and use the 02 free WiFi! Where the canteen is, I've yet to find out! I'll let you know what it's like when I do! Don't think it will be as good as Pets at Home at Stafford but stay tuned! Look at my other reviews to see where I've been! Déchargement rapide Nice young lady in the office but quick to unload Jó hely, Péntek este is leszedtek, pedig elkéstem az árúval. Parkolni nem lehet a területen, az ipari parkban mindenhol sárga vonal van. Ponyvás kamionok 2 oldalról rakodnak, a hűtősök rámpán. Quick turnaround Descarregamento rápido, como em todas as Sainsbury's, ref para entrar, caso não tenha codigo de entrada vá ao segurança que eles ajudam, entrega de cmr no escritório, chaves do camião no gancho ao lado do cais que lhe foi dado. Don't follow gps as it takes you to the exit, on the last roundabout take the exit for the st John's ambulance, it's straight down. 9 times out of 10 you can get in early, quick tip usually. Descarga rapida Fast unloading. At the main gate, reference is mandatory!! Then to Goods In office with papers. Once you get to designated bay, hook the truck keys on the chain or wire located in the driver's side, near the bay gate. Patiently wait in office for the lady to call you with bay number, to collect the papers signed. Great place. You need a reference number to enter into the tablet to get in. Bays are typical Sainsbury’s, lock your cab, keys on clip in chute, wait in office etc. Office staff were in good spirits and trailer was unloaded very quickly. Impressive. The Sainsbury's Basingstoke distribution centre is a massive 1 million+ square foot facility that supplies hundreds of stores across southern England. It runs 24/7 operations with a workforce of over 1,200 at peak times. The centre utilises advanced logistics technology like pick-to-voice, automated conveyors and temperature-controlled trucks to efficiently process inbound deliveries from suppliers into outbound orders for stores. However, the sheer scale of operations presents challenges around vehicle movements and noise pollution. Sainsbury's has made sustainability efforts like solar panels and truck efficiency programmes, but the centre's overall environmental impact remains significant. The site generates heavy vehicle traffic that disturbs nearby residents, despite Sainsbury's community outreach efforts. Overall, the distribution centre is vital logistics-wise but has areas to improve operationally, socially and environmentally in Basingstoke. Today Magdy at The Riu at Basingstoke CDC went out his way to help me find a missing ' Cup' from my trailer. Brilliant helpful guy. Well done , great people skills I'm looking forward to my next visit 👍 Not a bad drop. Plenty of quick turn around. Just signage is a bit messed up. Lanes need to be rewritten and goods in Ambient is in drivers waiting but no sign to say that. Rapid tipping plenty nice clean facilitys Foreign Guy with glasses at goods in told me to give the keys to the fork lift driver?? So am I supposed to wait in the cab or waiting room? He wasn’t happy to see me even though I didn’t do anything wrong. Get a cup of tea pal. Why are people rude to lorry drivers? Do you really think I want to be here? 😂 HGVs Use postcode RG216XE for knights park road that's where the entrance for deliveries is not on houndmills road. Easy in and out a bit slow on tipping sometimes Quite good for unloading time, depends on ambient or chilled delivery Security are rude at gatehouse with no respect for people's dignity. I had trouble with booking in on screen and was spoken to as if I were completely stupid in front of other people. No one to complain to, so here's my experience shared Not allowed to sit in your cab. Waiting is a dump and the staff in the waiting are rude and loud All nice work just toilet a bit messy and verry small sink to wash hands,near your knes,🤣 Website change monitoring Monitor any webpage for changes – get instant email alerts when prices drop, new jobs are posted, products come back in stock, or competitors update their sites.
