The new additions join the Dublin-based operator’s 30-strong fleet on an intensive distribution schedule, with daily deliveries to restaurant distribution centres in Ireland, the UK and Europe.
The three new assets have been specified with dynamic ramp protection (DRP) rollers on either side of the rear doors. Additional buffer protection underneath reinforces the trailer when reversing into delivery bays.
Each trailer has also been fitted with Schmitz Cargobull’s TrailerConnect telematics system, which tracks the unit’s location, sending regular updates to fleet managers about the condition of components such as tyres, brakes or cooling unit, as well as security alerts via email or SMS.
“The quality of Schmitz Cargobull trailers is incredible. Our delivery schedule is non-stop, seven days a week, and the performance has always been second to none,” says John Molloy, owner and director of Blackhorse Transport.
“Some of our trailers are a decade old, yet they still look as good as they did when we first put them into service. And the residual value is always excellent, so they are by far the best value trailers on offer.”
