We’re grateful to say that we’ve had another quarter full of handovers to some brilliant businesses across East Anglia. From plant hire to long-distance logistics operators, here’s a look at some of the latest vehicles we’ve sent out to work.
Simon Long Removals
Our sales exec James Cooper recently handed over the first of two new Renault Master LoLoaders to the team at Simon Long Removals, based in Thetford.
Simon Long Removals have been carrying out residential and commercial moves for over 20 years, working locally across their depots in East Anglia and South West, as well as internationally across Europe. They also offer storage solutions for customers who need a bit more flexibility during a move.
The Renault Master LoLoader has been a great fit for Simon Long. For a removals business, the lower loading height is a game changer – supporting less lifting when shifting heavy furniture, faster loading, and less physical strain on the crew. There’s also less risk of damage to items during the move. In a business where time is of the essence and customer property has to be handled with care, this makes all the difference.
We’re looking forward to seeing the second vehicle join the fleet soon.
Listers
Over at our Enfield depot, Peter Thirkettle handed over a Renault Master 150 P/Cab Luton to Steve and the team at Listers.
Listers are a trade supplier for windows and doors, with a range of trade partnerships across the UK. With over 40 years in the trade and award-winning fabrication work behind them, they know what they need from a vehicle.
The Luton body was specified with internal racking and a clean load area, fitted to go straight into work. For a business moving window and door units, having the right load protection installed was vital for protecting delicate stock on long transit runs.
Wright’s Flour
We’ve now handed over two more Renault Trucks D models to the team at Wright’s Flour. We’re very pleased that previous work with them has formed into a long-standing partnership of helping them grow their fleet.
Wright’s have now taken multiple Renault Trucks D models through Norfolk Truck & Van. Our latest two handovers came from our Enfield depot with Peter.
We’re glad to see Wright’s keep coming back, and hope to keep supplying them with reliable vehicles that get the job done. The Renault Trucks D range is designed for demanding urban distribution work – good manoeuvrability in tight delivery environments and a cab layout that makes things comfortable for drivers on long daily routes.
Thanks again to the Wright’s Flour team for the continued trust. It’s a partnership we highly value.
Harris Transport
Another fantastic long-term client – Harris Transport has taken 14 Renault tractor units from NTV over the past four years. This quarter, three brand-new 26-plate T480s joined the line-up, alongside a mix of ex-demo and used Renault Trucks units in the same delivery.
This vehicle is built for operators covering serious distances. It has a 480hp engine with the power to handle heavy loads on motorway runs without working harder than it needs to, which has a direct effect on fuel consumption over time. The high-spec cab keeps drivers comfortable on long shifts, which makes all the difference for long-haul travel.
We’re really pleased to see another strong batch heading out onto the road.
J.T. Few Plant Hire
We recently delivered a batch of brand-new Renault Trucks C430 8×4 Tippers to J.T. Few Plant Hire in Suffolk.
J.T. Few have been supporting the building and construction industry across East Anglia for almost thirty years, growing from a single driver into a sizeable fleet. They work across recycling and aggregates, supplying materials and plant hire services throughout the East of England.
The C430 8×4 is suited to exactly this type of work. The 8×4 axle spreads the load across four axles, which is important when you’re regularly carrying heavy aggregates and materials that can push gross weights towards the legal limit. The C-Series cab is designed for site environments with good visibility, straightforward controls, and built to take the day-to-day wear that comes with construction work.
Thanks to J.T. Few for the continued trust – we’re looking forward to seeing these on the road.
