Oaklands Farm Eggs goes to work on Volvo FH trucks 28 June 2011

Shropshire-based Oaklands Farm Eggs is buying eight Volvo FH 4x2 tractor units from truck dealer Hartshorne, to deliver eggs from its Shropshire depots to customers nationwide.

The new vehicles join Oaklands' existing fleet, which is already dominated by Volvo trucks. They all have 460bhp Euro-5 engines, as well as the l-shift transmissions, software configured for long haul and fuel economy.

All units have also been specified with Globetrotter XL cabs, with single-bed living facilities.
