“Demand doesn’t always stick to the fleet plan.”
That’s one of the points our Director, Lennon Compton, discusses in a new Water Jetting Association Member Spotlight on Tanker Rent UK.
A new contract can start before another vehicle can be sourced. A tanker can be unexpectedly off the road. Workload can increase quickly. And sometimes a job needs specialist equipment that simply doesn’t make commercial sense to own for occasional use.
Lennon talks about how that is changing the role of tanker hire, and why operators are becoming much more specific about the vehicles they want.
Configuration, controls, access, usability and how the vehicle performs day to day all matter. That feedback also helps shape the equipment we choose to add to the Tanker Rent fleet.
The interview also covers what customers should expect from a specialist hire company, why we joined the Water Jetting Association, and how being closer to contractors and operators helps us make better decisions about the fleet.
And, for reasons that will make sense when you read it, there’s a peregrine falcon in there too!
