Dawsonrentals truck & trailer diversify fleet

with Order for 10 Ekeri Side-Loaders

'Ekeri Trailers are Strong, Accessible, Versatile & Secure'

One month after taking delivery of their first Ekeri side-loading trailer, Dawsonrentals truck & trailer Ltd have placed an order for a further 10. Meanwhile, the trailer is being marketed to Dawsonrental's nationwide customer base as versatile, in that it can transport loads of all temperatures, shapes, sizes & weights, secure, built to last and generally 'the way forward' for many manufacturers, producers & hauliers.

Dawsonrentals truck & trailer Ltd is one of the market leading rental and contract hire companies of commercial vehicles and trailers with 30 branches located throughout the UK.

“Each year Dawsonrentals make significant investments in order to expand and update our fleet, therefore ensuring our customers receive premium equipment with the latest technology to help reduce operating costs.” Says Andy Dodge, Fleet Operations Director, “As customers requirements change we look to satisfy their needs accordingly and side opening refrigerated trailers are yet another step forward to achieving this. These trailers will have both single and dual side openings, which will offer customers maximum flexibility, with the full side opening capabilities of a curtainsider trailer, and the thermal efficiency of a conventional refrigerated trailer.”

“There are many beneficial features of the Ekeri designed trailers” says Rob Wise, UK Sales Manager at Ekeri. “Firstly they are built to a very high standard – they look like they are built to last. Secondly, their ability to open up along the entire length of the trailer will make the loading problems experienced by so many companies simply disappear. Every company that handles bulky, heavy loads will now have the option of a completely accessible trailer – even more so with one of the Ekeri trailers that open completely down both sides of the trailer.” Wise continues, “The third benefit is that of versatility. The Ekeri side-loaders can transport refrigerated, chilled and ambient goods, therefore providing the potential to maximise use of the trailer with return loads. Finally, Ekeri trailers are constructed hardened lockable panels ensuring load security.”

Market-proven Ekeri trailers, with double deck option, patented load restraint (recessed into the floor along the trailer length), sliding roof, removable side posts and fast, one-man operation, allow operators the ideal transport solution to maximise opportunities in virtually all sectors of national or international commercial transport.
