DAF Trucks is donating a New CF 370 rear-steer 26-tonne 6x2 rigid for use by members of the Transport Association (TA) in return for donations to charity Transaid.
The TA is a network of 60 haulage firms, any of which can use the vehicle in regular service in return for donations to the industry charity.
The Don-Bur bodied curtainsider has been liveried to promote Transaid’s work in developing countries.
“This is such an innovative approach to raising funds,” says Robin Easton, managing director at DAF Trucks, “and we hope the flexibility of the three-axle rear-steer New CF will maximise appeal to the widest range of operators, thus boosting donations.”
A similar arrangement between DAF and the TA in 2014 resulted in donations of £17,500 to UK charity Helen & Douglas House.
