SYNETIQ, an IAA company and one of the leading vehicle salvage and recycling businesses in the UK, has recently taken delivery of seven new DAF LF 12-ton double deck recovery trucks from MV Commercial. The aim of this fleet renewal project is to improve the efficiency and reduce the carbon footprint of SYNETIQ's nationwide operations.

The new recovery trucks are designed to transport three cars at once and will be used to collect salvage vehicles for the insurance industry from garages or policy holders' addresses. The vehicles come equipped with tilt and slide bodies and spec lifts, making them ideal for SYNETIQ's operations. The trucks arrived at SYNETIQ's head office in Doncaster as part of a fleet renewal project, with the final two joining the fleet late in 2022.

These new trucks will be based at SYNETIQ's depots in Winsford, St. Albans, Gloucester, and east London, joining a mixed fleet of 110 salvage recovery vehicles that ranges from 44-tonne artics to 3.5-tonne transit vans. The recovery units are expected to clock up more than 60,000 km per year, making them a crucial part of SYNETIQ's operations.

According to Mike Griffiths, Head of Transport at SYNETIQ, "We needed to expand our fleet as part of the company's growth strategy and these DAF trucks from MV Commercial are a great addition. They enable us to access areas of the UK that our 26-tonne vehicles can't, such as parts of Wales and other remote locations that are difficult to reach. The new 12-tonne recovery trucks are really improving the effectiveness of our operations and driving our sustainability ambitions forward."

Griffiths also praised MV Commercial for their excellent service and communication during the fleet expansion program. "Hats off to MV Commercial for supporting SYNETIQ's drive towards greater efficiencies and also helping us reduce our carbon footprint. We're very happy with MV Commercial. The deal was competitive and the vehicles were available. Their service and communication has been excellent and made our fleet expansion program much easier to manage."

The acquisition of these new recovery trucks marks the first time that SYNETIQ has worked with MV Commercial. The company's investment in these vehicles will bring numerous benefits, including improved efficiency and a reduction in their carbon footprint. It will also help SYNETIQ to access difficult-to-reach areas of the UK, enabling the company to better serve its clients and achieve its growth objectives.

SYNETIQ's acquisition of these new DAF LF 12-ton double deck recovery trucks from MV Commercial is a crucial step in improving the efficiency and sustainability of its operations. This fleet renewal project is a testament to the company's commitment to providing its customers with the highest level of service, while also reducing its impact on the environment.
