The vehicles are all 6x2 narrow rear-steer Elite chassis with Olympus 19 bodies and Terberg OmniDEL bin lifts.
They are operating from three depots across the county on a seven-year contract for East Sussex Joint Waste Partnership.
The narrow version of the Elite chassis has the highest five-star Direct Vision Standard rating from Transport for London.
Both the Olympus body and Terberg OmniDEL bin lift were fitted at Dennis Eagle’s Warwick factory, enabling a faster lead time and single point of contact during production.
Biffa business director David Maidman says: “We had a very specific requirement in the contract for narrow vehicles and the Dennis Eagle Elites came out on top. But we also have a very long and successful trading relationship with the company, which made working with them an easy decision.”
The RCVs will be maintained in-house, supported by Biffa’s use of the DennisConnect telematics system.
