Robin then joined Watts Brothers of Beverley who were the largest haulage firm in the East Riding of Yorkshire. As mechanic/recovery driver, he gained considerable experience in recovering Heavy... Goods Vehicles. In 1979 he decided to "go it alone" and founded Bell Truck Services located on the outskirts of Beverley at the Victoria Barracks. Bell Trucks Services first recovery vehicle was a Morris Commercial 44, fitted with a Weaver Crane. This vehicle is still occasionally used to recover vehicles from difficult muddy terrain. Soon, a second, larger recovery vehicle was required and a scammel "Coffeepot" was purchased. This vehicle was used for heavy lifting and winching.
