Merseyside-based Gaskells Waste Services has ordered a second Volvo FM-400 8x4 rigid truck just weeks after taking delivery of the first from Thomas Hardie Commercials - and plans to increase the fleet further with yet more Volvos.
The second vehicle will match the first, a 400hp, 8x4 hook-lift with a day cab in comfort trim. It will be delivered later this year. Gaskells runs a mixed fleet of nine waste collection and recycling vehicles, but MD John Gaskell says he plans to expand the fleet with more Volvos.
