WASTE RECYCLING
Collett Transport Services get DAF trucks from Greenhous dealership
MUNICIPAL Vehicle Hire company Collett Transport Services (CTS) have received two new DAF CF 6x2 rear-steer RCVs, complete with Dennis Eagle trade waste bodywork. The 26-tonne DAF CFs were supplied by DAF Dealer, Greenhous DAF in Shrewsbury.
The vehicles mark the end of a year of significant investment and fleet expansion at CTS, and the beginning of a new era of growth into commercial waste collection.
The company has spent over £2.5m on new hire vehicles, and now boasts a fleet of over 165 vehicles, including refuse vehicles, caged tippers, hook loaders, skip loaders and sweepers.
HIGHEST QUALITY AND SPECIFICATION
Bob Sweetland, Managing Director of CTS said: “We are committed to investing in only the highest quality and specification of vehicles.
“These vehicles are suitable for trade waste collections, which is an area of the business we intend to grow in the future.”
The vehicles comprise DAF CF 290 FAN 6x2 rear steer chassis, and Dennis Eagle Olympus 23 bodies fitted with Beta 2 Lip lifts. DAF Trucks’ CF 6x2 chassis continues its’ dominance of the municipal market, offering class-leading manoeuvrability and a range of axle configurations to suit the ever-increasing complexities of urban operations.
“The DAF brand is very strong in this sector,” said Graham Waters, Senior Sales Executive at Greenhous DAF, “and, in partnership with Dennis Eagle, we were able to provide an exacting specification for CTS.

“Drivers of these trucks,” he said, “will appreciate excellent handling characteristics, a large, comfortable cab and state- of-the-art waste collection equipment.”
CTS offers flexible and competitive refuse vehicle hire packages for the short or long term, and is part of contract hire and fleet management company Specialist Fleet Services Ltd (SFS).
Bob Sweetland added: “We have had a record breaking year in terms of retaining existing customers and also winning new business. We are looking forward to continuing our growth next year.”

The Recycling Partnership expands fleet with two FORS-Redi Trucks
Crawley-based commercial waste and recycling company The Recycling Partnership was recently awarded FORS Bronze accreditation for its’ high standards in fleet health and safety.
The company equipped their two latest refuse trucks with the latest safety and weighing equipment to meet FORS (Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme) standards.
The vehicles, both Mercedes Econic with Dennis Eagle Olympus bodies and fitted with Beta Trade Bin lifts, were supplied by Gloucestershire-based Refuse Vehicle Solutions Ltd (RVS) from its RediTruck stock. They are equipped with a Cyclist Warning System, 4x Camera hard disk recording, fall arrest safety system, LED side beacons and the VWS ENVIROWEIGH bin weighing system.
The RediTruck service from RVS enables waste operators to buy new commercially equipped refuse vehicles from stock.
Jason Taylor, The Recycling Partnership said: “We used to have to wait months and months for the new vehicle to arrive from the manufacturer. At RVS they do it all under one roof, which is much more straightforward for us.”
