Salford Van Hire has chosen the Renault Trucks range to expand and update its fleet with 35 44-tonne Range T460 6x2 tractor units with sleeper cabs and 20 18-tonne Range D18s with 27ft GRP box bodies and tail lifts.
A further 17 12- and 18-tonne Range Ds are also on order. The trucks, which all carry Salford Van Hire's livery as well as the company's 50th Anniversary (1965-2015) logo, began joining the 6,300-strong mixed Renault, DAF, Mercedes and Iveco commercial fleet at the end of 2014.
The new Range T and Ds are being put to the test across the UK by Salford Van Hire's clients.
The 12-tonne Range Ds add a new offering to hirers who need extra weight above 7.5 tonnes, while the 18-tonne Range Ds are replacement vehicles for the Salford Van Hire fleet. Commenting on his decision to bring the new Renaults on board,
Alessandro Bacci, director of Salford Van Hire, said: "2015 is a special year for Salford Van Hire as we celebrate our 50th Anniversary.
"We chose Renault Trucks as we have had success with them over the past 12 years and they have proven to be particularly reliable.
"We turned to Renault as we needed some new vehicles to keep a-pace with our client's business needs as well as keeping our fleet up to date with flagship models."
