Supplied by dealer Greenshields JCB, B&T Plant Hire has taken delivery of models ranging from seven metres lift height up to 20 metres, from the 530-70 model up to the flagship 540-200.
B&T Plant Hire managing director Tom O’Brien said: “We chose JCB telehandlers for several reasons. Residual value and reliability are obviously important factors but equally crucial is that our customers prefer JCB.”
He said: “The 540-200 is a good addition to our fleet, extending the maximum height capability we can offer and companies building hotels have already recognised its quality. The drivers are happy and we are too. The final benefit of JCB equipment is the LiveLink telematics system. It’s a very useful tool and we are excited about the benefits it can bring in terms of managing servicing and monitoring fuel consumption.”
The latest JCB models join more than 1,500 machines in B&T Plant Hire’s extensive range of equipment available from its depots in Morden, Surrey and Northfleet, Kent.
JCB sales director Dan Thompstone said: "We are delighted to have secured this important business from one of the southeast of England's biggest plant hirers. It's a huge vote of confidence in our Loadall product which is already the biggest selling telescopic handler in the world."
