First Volvos for Standard Plant Hire Ltd
Bromley based Standard Plant Hire Ltd has added ten Volvo EC140E and ECR145E excavators to its plant fleet for the first time heralding its entry into hiring larger machines across the South East of England.
The new Volvo additions, which are made up of eight EC140Es and two reduced swing ECR145Es, join a fleet of some 1,250 machines in Standard Plant Hire’s arsenal of equipment. This includes: compact excavators, site dumpers, tele-handlers, welfare units, compressors and an array of attachments and breakers for hire. “Up until now we have specialised in hiring compact equipment up to nine tonnes in operating weight,” comments Managing Director, Michael Fleming. “Adding these new Volvos is a recent departure for us, moving into the fourteen- tonne market, as we begin to focus on expanding our offering to civil engineering, ground working and demolition contractors.” “These are the first Volvo machines we have purchased and chose them after considering favourable third-party references,

together with their reputation for being reliable and productive excavators commanding strong residual values when it’s time to trade. Choosing the Volvo brand fits in with our own core values of providing a prompt and efficient hire service with quality products to a highly demanding customer base.” Established in 2009, Standard Plant Hire has expanded its self-drive hire business year on year building on its reputation for providing modern machinery from leading manufacturers together with a highly reliable and personal level of service throughout the South East of England. The company has become leaders in providing many of the southern-based utility contractors and has ambitious plans for further expansion within the next few years. ■
