TIP Group launches UK academy for trailer mechanics

A new electric vehicle (EV) charter and accompanying training course have been launched by the Association of Fleet Professionals (AFP).

Hauliers who believe their trailers failed their test incorrectly are being encouraged to contact the DVSA after an error was spotted by the enforcement agency.

Arrow XL has spent £500,000 on 19 new double deck trailers for its fleet, which it said will provide greater efficiencies in terms of fleet capacity, fuel economy and environmental footprint.
