Winning awards for doing what you love, can it get any better? Well, that is apparently the case for our used truck team, who earlier in November was awarded the prestigious Volvo Used Truck Dealer of the Year 2023 award.

Securing this accolade during possibly the most competitive used truck market to date is no easy feat, and the used truck team understands this more than most. The levels of talent that exist within the truck market should never be underestimated and this result tells us that all corners of our used truck team have exceeded expectations and together, have brought quality, honesty, and above all, trust to our ever-faithful customer base.

But, without this collection of superhero-grade employees going above and beyond day in, day out, results like these wouldn’t be possible. From our technicians repairing and maintaining our stock to the valeters ensuring all of our vehicles come with that new-truck smell and feel. As individuals, we’re nothing, but as a collective, we’re unstoppable.

A momentous thank you to our customers, who rely on us to maintain their fleets and businesses with quality used trucks. This responsibility is held in the utmost regard and our mindset will never waver.

Also, again, a heartfelt thank you to our employees, the wider Thomas Hardie Group, and the Volvo Network for their continuous support providing us with such a stalwart foundation for us to work from.

We’ve made a video that further highlights our gratitude for everyone involved, which you can watch via our YouTube channel here 

Till next time,

Thank you,

Thomas Hardie Used Truck Team.

Despite the skies turning a little dreary, CHRIS HAYTER TRANSPORT LTD‘s latest double-additions to their fleet look fantastic, whatever the weather.

Collected yesterday and supplied by Regional Sales Executive, Ronnie Kelsall, these pair included a 2-year Volvo Driveline-Pro warranty and feature Hayter Transport’s iconic livery.

Joint Managing Director, Andy Holligan, commented, ‘Working with Ronnie is always a pleasure. He’s very accommodating and maintains a professional attitude throughout. The quality of trucks we receive is always second to none’.

A huge thank you to Chris Hayter Transport for their continued custom and we look forward to our next venture 💪

Used Vehicle Sales Manager, Jonathan Bownes, and Cheshire Fire and Rescue instructor, Paul Cowin, recently joined forces to further highlight the importance of HGV RTCs.

HGV RTCs (Road Traffic Collisions) can have unbelievably devastating effects on everyone. From the people caught up in the accident to bystanders that rush to help. Nobody wants to be involved, but it is essential that the professionals who specialize in this field are ready and fully understand what can be expected, this was the goal for both Paul and Jonathan.

Jonathan brought along a 2019, 500bhp, 6×2, Volvo FH tractor unit to Winsford Fire Station, giving the training crew a full, hands-on experience with a relatively new HGV. This specific station features a special ‘Major Rescue Unit’ that attends HGV RTCs and other major incidents involving the public. Following a brief introduction from both Paul and Jon, plus a few quick-fire questions from the trainees, the crew was given the opportunity to look around, ask questions and discuss all aspects of the truck. Many opted to climb aboard and at one point, the cabin housed four crew members! Questions ranged from battery isolation points, door jams, cutting locations, windscreen access, trailer connections, axle pressure, and more.

For many, this was the first time they’d had the opportunity to get up close and personal with a modern HGV with Paul commenting; “being able to compare a newer truck to the older style we have to practice extrication, was a major positive of the course” The cab was eventually tilted over allowing the crew further access to the engine and more regions of the vehicle to explore, not before reminding everyone not to leave anything heavy on the bunk!

The afternoon concluded with the crew test-fitting the latest airbag restraint technology on a modern steering wheel and we are glad to hear positive feedback all-round.

The day was very well received with the majority of trainees learning something new and taking with them fresh knowledge that we hope will go on to benefit the station in the future.

We’d like to thank Paul of Cheshire Fire & Rescue for inviting us along and allowing us the chance to further support and contribute towards the HGV RTC effort!

Economy Sales Executive Adam Foy has historically served as Thomas Hardie Used Truck’s overseas sales expert. Exporting numerous used wagons to far corners of the globe, Adam has continuously provided strong results in a previously untapped market for Thomas Hardie Commercials.

With his roots sunk deeply within the Used Truck team, Adam originally began his time at TH as a PDI Valeter, eventually graduating to Valeter Supervisor and then Economy & Export Executive.

Now, with eyes on the Northwest, Adam now works closely alongside current Regional Sales Executive Ronnie Kelsall. A seasoned professional with over five years of invaluable experience under his belt working within regional sales. Together, the duo now represent the Thomas Hardie Used Truck within the Northwest. A huge leap for Adam and a massive step forward for the UVS depot.

Congratulations to Adam on his recent success, let’s hope the future is as vibrant as the past!

SWT (South Wales Truck and Trailer Repairs) has been trading for around four years and began life as a dedicated HGV diagnostics and repairs workshop manned by three fully qualified technicians. Two years in, Tony, director at SWT, decided to expand the business, moving into the haulage sector. Tony’s father also ran a successful haulage firm for over twenty-five years, giving Tony the confidence and knowledge he needed to get the ball rolling with his latest venture. Now running three wagons, SWT is a well-established, versatile business that contributes as well as supports the haulage effort.

It’s worth mentioning that Tony has worked alongside Thomas Hardie Used Trucks for roughly ten years, collecting sold wagons for PM Reace & Sons, so Tony already knew where he would be going to populate his fleet when the time was right!

This latest DAF addition has received a complete strip-down and respray, accompanied by SWT’s unique livery.
