Northern Ireland-based EJC Contracts has taken delivery of three new DAF CF 450 8×4 32-tonne tipper grabs, each equipped with Thompsons bodies and Palfinger Epsilon cranes.
The new trucks, supplied by MV Commercial in Airdrie, meet FORS Silver requirements, and include comprehensive camera systems to enhance pedestrian and road user safety, as well as Kelsa light bars and fully bespoke livery wraps.
Of the three vehicles, one is a new addition to the company’s fleet and will be based in Northern Ireland, helping to meet growing demand for services there.
The remaining two are fleet renewals, replacing older assets and are based at the EJC Contracts depots in Bath and Southend-On-Sea.
The new trucks follow an identical order MV Commercial supplied into the business last year and join a mixed commercial fleet of around 150 vehicles, which includes 3.5-tonne vans through to tippers and agricultural units.
Run by father and son, Edward and Daniel Connolly, the Newtownabbey-based haulier was established in 1993.
It offers private grab hire services, undertakes utility and landscaping work, alongside partnering with major telecoms providers across the UK, designing, building and deploying high-speed fibre networks.
Paul Marley, Transport Manager at EJC Contracts, said: “The reason we keep coming back to MV Commercial is because we know we can rely on them to deliver the vehicles we need with minimal lead times.
“For any issue we may have, the team at MV are always available and work hard to get any problem – no matter how big or small – sorted extremely quickly.”
