Fleet Tracking:
We use a state-of-the-art Fleet Management System that allows us to monitor both trucks and refrigerated trailers movements in real time.
In relation to our temperature controlled business, we have recently installed a GPS and Temperature Download module to all our fridges that enables us to track temperatures live from loading to delivery.
Data may be downloaded, if necessary, within minutes via email, to the relevant parties.
This temperature monitoring works with spit fridges, multi-temp units and also our double deck fridges. It also acts as an additional security feature for tracking loads.
Maintenance:
We maintain all of our fleet to the highest standards within our own 8,000 sq ft 4 bay workshop.
All vehicles are serviced as part of a scheduled preventative maintenance programme, ensuring that our fleet minimises breakdowns resulting in customers deliveries remaining on schedule.
We also take pride in our fleets’ appearance and wash all vehicles on-site using our own specialised HGV Truck Wash.
