What a weekend at Convoy in the Park! 🚛💨🔥

At Donington Park Circuit, had a full display stand booked out for Colson Trailers, inviting customers & friends to bring along their trucks & trailers for an incredible display! With over 50 units joining us on the stand throughout the weekend, it was fantastic to see so many familiar faces & some seriously impressive trucks all together in one place celebrating what we all love!

Alongside our customers & friends’ trucks on display, we had our very own flagship tractor units, the Volvo NH12 Bullnose & Scania V8 T-Cab (freshly touched-up by our in-house spray tech Lewis Onemancommercialpainting).

Keeping everyone fuelled throughout the weekend was an award-winning BBQ from Deakin's Family Butchers🔥🍔, alongside plenty of on-tap & chilled refreshments at Ray's Mobile Bar 😎🍻

Dynamic Duo | Two More Tippers for Crown! 🚛🚛

Yesterday, the team from Crown Waste Management stopped by our Derby depot to collect not one, but two brand-new Colson tipper trailers!

First up is the 35yd³ ‘Heavy Duty’, our robust steel Halfpipe built to handle demanding materials including aggregates, muck & rock. Featuring a Hardox steel body, SAF axles & air suspension, Edbro ram & Jost landing legs, it’s built tough for hard-working applications.

Alongside it, the 35yd³ ‘Aluminium Superlite’ offers a lightweight alternative, featuring an 8mm 6000 series hardened aluminium floor, 6mm aluminium sides, SAF axles & air suspension, Edbro ram & aluminium landing gear. Designed with aggregate & sand haulage in mind, it combines durability with reduced weight.

Two different Halfpipes, two different strengths, both built to keep the Crown Crew moving forwards.

A huge thank you to Crown for choosing Colson Trailers. We look forward to seeing both units out on the road! 🚛🚛💨

Introducing the Colson ScrapPipe 🚛✨

Designed as the perfect hybrid, the new 68yd³ 'ScrapPipe' combines the functionality of a halfpipe with the extra capacity of our Scrapbox, creating a versatile tipper built for a huge range of applications.

Ready to work, the ScrapPipe features a 4mm Hardox 450 steel body, S700MC steel chassis, Edbro lift ram, Jost landing legs, rear barn doors, VWS WiFi weigher, and a choice of Flip (front-to-back) or side-to-side sheeting systems.

So, why choose the ScrapPipe?

As our own Ryan Colson puts it:
"It's like the Swiss Army knife of tipping trailers. Whether you're hauling hardcore, aggregates, muck, scrap, recycling, trommel fines, shredded general waste or oversized scrap, it's built to do it all."

Its biggest advantage over a traditional bulk tipper is its 'hybrid' halfpipe design. By keeping the load lower & more centralised within the body, the ScrapPipe promotes a more even haul, improves stability & providing greater control when tipping, helping to make every load safer & more efficient.

Interested in the all-new ScrapPipe? Get in touch with today to find out more!
