New Accident Unit and Heavy Slidebed Arrive

Iveco Accident Unit - Arrived April 2009

We have recently taken delivery of a brand new Iveco 18 tonne GVM chassis fitted with a 21 metre tonne Copma Lorry Loader crane, heavy duty slidebed and also has a medium range underlift supplied by Boniface Engineering. The whole combination makes for an ideal bespoke accident unit for use on the M25 and M3 for the police and Highways Agency. We also added a new clamshell grab bucket (pictured on a pallet on the bed ready for transport to a scene) which normally waits at our Leatherhead depot along with our Bobcat and other load management equipment. This allows us to begin clearing a scene that has large amounts of debris as a result of LGV accident with a spilled load, thus reducing the overall clear up time and getting carriageway opening again sooner whilst waiting for our sub-contractors to arrive with skips and roll on roll off bins etc.

Renault Midlum Heavy Slider - Arrived May 2009

We have also acquired a new 12 tonne Renault Midlum, with factory fitted crew cab, heavy duty slide bed, second car lift and also fully equipped as a roadside assistance vehicle, supplied by Boniface Engineering. The vehicle is now working back to back with a similar sized vehicle on the strategic road network primarily for the Highways Agency, Police and motoring organisations to ensure that we are able to recover up to 4.5 tonnes with up to 6 passengers with ease and get the carriageway flowing again.
