Earthline, an earthmoving, recycling and quarrying company operating in the in the south of England, is upgrading its fleet with 26 Scania tippers this year.

With over 70 tippers currently on the fleet, Earthline has ordered a selection of 410hp Scania XT, P and G-series 8x4 trucks. 

Malachi Chambers, general manager of Earthline, said: “We really liked that the XT range was an option available on our latest order as it meant that the vehicles already came with a lot of the robust features we’d usually add once we received them, this ultimately meant that we got them working sooner.

"Even simple features like the headlamp protection helps prevent breakages, which in turn means the vehicle doesn’t have to stop or be taken off the road for repair. 

“The majority of our fleet is Scania and we’ve been running Scania product for around 18 years. We’re great fans of the products and enjoy the aftersales support we receive, so for us it was an easy decision when looking at upgrading our current range.” 

Earthline has opted for a two-year repair and maintenance plan that comes as standard on Scania construction trucks and has also opted to take a third year driveline warranty. It has received 17 of the new trucks to date. 

The trucks also feature Brigade six-way recordable camera systems with Sidescan as well as Scania City Safe windows.
