This month sees the introduction of 9 new Volvo FH500 globetrotters and a new Cartwright Tail-lift trailer completed in SR Furniture livery.

The tail-lift trailer will be used within the general haulage fleet around the country and gives customers the opportunity for some goods to be offloaded without the use of a forklift.

8 of the new Volvos are in Evans Green and Red and the last is in White and has gone into our Seymour operation. The trucks will be seen across the general, brick, and tipper sections of the business.

They have all come equipped with extra-large lockers, fridges and built in Sat Navs to aid driver comfort. All the new vehicles are Euro 6 engines which will replace the euro 5 models we currently have.

Evans have recently taken delivery of 4 new Cartwright 15.6m trailers.

These longer than normal trailers will join our other 3 Longer semi-trailers in serving the Evans palletised services night trunks.

In using these longer trunk trailers it helps reduce the amount trucks run on the road due to bigger load capacity and ultimately lower our carbon footprint.

We have recently applied this eye catching vinyl to our smooth sided bulk tipping trailer supporting the Devon Air Ambulance charity. It will hopefully help raise awareness for the charity, by traveling around the South West of England and encouraging people to donate.

The aim is "to relieve sickness and injury in and around the county of Devon through provision of an emergency Air Ambulance Service."

Every year the Charity needs to raise £5.5 million to run the service.  In addition, we need to raise around £1m more to build capital funds in order to ensure we can replace our aircraft after ten years’ service and to meet significant maintenance and repair costs plus ambitious plans to extend our operating hours.

Keep a look out for this trailer and donate if you can.
