New Iveco trucks for Hendricks Lovell

January 16, 2012


Hayes-based builders merchant Hendricks Lovell has taken delivery of four new Iveco Stralis Active Day rigids.

The order of 26 tonners from the firm - a division of Grafton Merchanting GB - includes four Stralis 6x4 rigids, one of which will operate with a drawbar trailer.
 
They will replace older vehicles in the fleet and ensure the company can continue to enter the London Low Emission Zone (LEZ) without financial penalty.

All four vehicles are mounted with a remote control Palfinger crane, and feature a steering rear axle to aid manoeuvrability when operating on construction sites and in restricted urban areas.

Phil Alexander, head of transport at Grafton Merchanting GB, says the trucks are expected to make up to 15 drops per day.

"The new trucks will be in operation six days a week, making deliveries to building sites and private residences throughout Greater London and the Home Counties," he explains.

"It's the perfect 26 tonne rigid for delivering loads which can range from bricks and blocks to timber and jumbo bags of aggregate.
 
"The rear-steering axle makes these particular models ideally suited to work within the M25."
