The Milkman has been an essential part of British life for generations and now following the trend of many major UK services they are now online.

One of the faces of Milk delivery is Gary and he is a real milkman, too. Gary has seen a few changes over his eight years as a milkman on his daily milk run, delivering 4,880 pints of milk every week in Exeter.

With the word spreading about the convenience and ease of a daily online Milk delivery service, more and more people are taking advantage of a reliable food delivery service for daily essentials like bread and butter and heavier items like fruit juice, potatoes and bottled water.

Gary's normal day starts at 12.45am, when a series of alarms wake him up to get to the depot for two in the morning. Over the next 60 minutes, he loads up his electric milk float with the day's orders, and starts his deliveries from 3am. For the next six hours, he delivers milk and other daily essentials to everyone on his milk run, and collects empty bottles to bring back to the depot. Gary's day is almost over at 9am as most people are arriving at work.

Why does ...
... Gary love his job? He loves the physical activity, he loves the independence of working on his own, he loves the early mornings and he loves the people he works with and meets on his daily milk run.

In addition to fresh milk and dairy products, Milk delivery services now offer a huge and continually-expanding range of essentials to over 1.4 million homes all over the United Kingdom. From Bread and milk to vegetable boxes and the freshest seasonal organic fruit, they have got all the daily essentials covered in one easy to manage online service.
