Wincanton bolsters milk fleet

Both vehicles, fitted with tanks from Sayers Road Tankers, will cover more than 110,000 miles-per-year, collecting up to 89,000 litres of milk from farms across the South West and South Wales every day.

Wincanton technical services director said: “Quality and safety are key to milk transportation and Wincanton. We’re confident these new trucks are amongst the safest and most efficient of their type on the road, offering maximum reliability on a contract where they literally never stop working, except for planned maintenance. These are very high-spec tankers built for a specific contract, and Volvo could meet the precise configuration we needed.”
