Supplied on a three-year full-service contract hire deal, the Scanias join a mixed fleet at the Widnes-based storage and transportation services company – including 15 MAN and seven DAF trucks.
Transport manager Stuart Buckley-Mellor, said: “We’ve never had Scanias before, but we decided to add some to our fleet based on their reported performance and fuel efficiency. It’s proven to be the right decision for the vehicles we need.
“We’re very happy with them and so are our drivers. They can be covering up to 120,000 km per year. The new tractor units are robust and reliable, and we’ve seen a lot less downtime than with some of our other trucks.”
3D Trans has been collaborating with Asset Alliance Group for more than six years. The new Scanias join the company amid a rolling fleet renewal programme that saw the commercial vehicle specialist supply a number of assets last year to support steady growth for the business.
