"We don’t have to manhandle equipment on and off trailers. This vehicle is purpose built for grounds maintenance and parkland care, but it is also useful for other services where you have to shift a heavy load, or deliver goods somewhere.

We have made an efficiency saving on our parking space as well, because rather than a van and a 16ft trailer we now have 48ft of extra space available.

We kept two panel vans in service, and we managed to extend their life. Two are used for verge cutting operations to carry hedge cutters and strimmers on the back. So we now have five vehicles on the fleet. But next year we may even consider another Plant and Go truck"
