Maiden’s moves for more MAN tractor units 13 June 2012

Haulage and storage specialist, Maiden's of Telford, has confirmed MAN as its preferred truck supplier, after taking delivery of its latest fleet of premium duty TGX 26.440 6x2 Midlift tractor units.

The latest quartet of tractors bring the total of MAN trucks in the Maiden's fleet to 45.

The Shropshire-based Palletforce member also uses a dedicated on-site MAN dealership in the shape of Aquila Truck Centres, which has taken over the repair and maintenance of Maiden's entire truck and trailer fleet.

After initial reservations over switching to a new truck manufacturer, managing director John Maiden now sees MAN and Aquila as integral to the growth of Maiden's business.

"Outstanding support, that's what we get from MAN and Aquila," he says.

"It was only natural for us to be sceptical at first but we needn't have worried," continues Maiden.

"The initial MAN demo performed beyond our expectations, and we became more confident of the quality of MAN's service offering as the MAN fleet size grew."
