Owner Barry Brewster added: “RVS was recommended to us by one of the refuse vehicle manufacturers, because they couldn’t meet our delivery deadline and we would have had to wait up to a year for the vehicle. As it is RVS managed to get the right specification of vehicle to us in less than two months with its RediTruck service. We were so impressed we ordered another vehicle immediately!”
“We support any steps that improve the air quality in the city. To that end we are upgrading our fleet with the latest Euro VI engines, which meet the new low emission zone criteria.”
The company operates a fleet of 44 vehicles across London and Essex.
RVS introduced RediTruck to provide its customers with brand-new refuse vehicles from stock, without the long lead-times required by manufacturers. Spencer Law, RVS managing director said: “The new low emission regulations are a challenge for many operators. Replacing vehicles quickly can be difficult to achieve when the average wait time for a new vehicle is 9-12 months. That is why we started our RediTruck service. We know what operators want so we have a rolling stock of different configurations of vehicles, that are ready for work and can be delivered in short time-scales.”
