North London-based Stanmore Quality Services has ordered 25 new Isuzu N75.150(E) chassis cabs mounted with insulated tarmac tipping bodies from Southern Vehicle Bodies.
Primarily used to support road repair following the completion of utility works, the trucks are designed to maintain required load temperatures during transport to allow the new surfacing material to be laid immediately on arrival.
Fitted with a camera system and a full telematics package, they will be on the road six days a week, averaging 30,000 miles a year.
Like all new vehicles delivered by Isuzu Truck UK, they come with a three-year, unlimited mileage warranty, which includes roadside assistance and are backed by Isuzu Truck UK’s Customer CARE programme.
All servicing will be managed through DT Trucks and the Isuzu dealer network, with the vehicles operating from SQS’s five depots.
Established more than 25 years ago, SQS provides excavation, engineering, reinstatement, highways maintenance and civil works to customers across the Southeast of England.
The new Isuzu trucks join a mixed fleet of more than 400 commercial vehicles, ranging from 3.5 to 32-tonnes.
James Gupwell, Transport Director for SQS, said the trucks are set to replace older vehicles from another manufacturer in the firm’s 40-strong 7.5-tonne fleet.
He added: “We have been very pleased with how seamlessly the Isuzu trucks have fitted into our operation.
“They are compact, extremely manoeuvrable, and offer excellent load capacity, which makes them our go-to trucks for any urban work.
“They are also tough and durable, which is crucial in our industry.”
