Carr’s Billington Agriculture Ltd
By switching to Isuzu 13.5 tonne rigids, Carr’s Billington Agriculture Ltd is automatically benefitting from an extra 1.5 tonne payload per truck, providing the company with much greater distribution efficiencies, without any disadvantages from moving up the GVW scale. They have recently taken delivery of two new Isuzu F135.240 curtainsided rigids to join their 174 strong HGV and LCV distribution fleet, with the vehicles working out of depots at Skipton in Yorkshire and Brecon in mid Wales. The latest trucks are the first two new Isuzus for the company and follow-on from two Isuzu 7.5 tonne dropside rigids and three Isuzu 7.5 tonne curtainsided rigids that the company bought second hand a few years ago. David Wardle from Carr’s explained, “The Isuzus we operate are really reliable and have provided us with excellent service, so when we were looking to introduce some higher GVW trucks we decided to switch to Isuzu for these first two 13.5 tonne rigids, as they ticked all the right boxes for us.”
