TRANSPORTER Tuffnells has partnered with Don-Bur to develop an easy access “Mini-Wedge” trailer for urban use.
The new concept aims to increase efficiency by providing higher manoeuvrability in areas usually served by Tuffnells’ larger 18-tonne vehicles, and through maximising the utilisation of its tractor units for daytime distribution, reducing reliance on rigid chassis vehicles that can then be deployed on other customer routes.
Supplied via TIP Trailer Services, the first 9m long single axle concept trailer has rolled out of the Don-Bur factory and is destined for a brief trial to ensure the equipment dovetails perfectly with existing delivery and collection operations around Tuffnells’ 33 nationwide depots.
