MICHELIN has issued special guidance for haulage companies and own account operators parking fleets for extended periods during the COVID-19 pandemic.
This follows a survey by the Road Haulage Association which revealed 46% of UK’s trucks, around 240,000 vehicles, are now parked up with no work.
Rob Blurton, Michelin’s technical field engineer in the UK and Ireland, has detailed steps to follow before laying up vehicles, along with advice on periodic inspections and preparing vehicles to re-enter service.
