NTM-GB Giving 15-Year-Old RCV a New Lease of Life

The veteran 2011 rear-loader had certainly seen better days after a decade and a half of servicing public waste collections, but the Aftersales Refurbishment team took on the challenge - working their magic to achieve spectacular results.

Not only did the team extend what was already a rather impressive vehicle life-span - keeping the vehicle on the road for much longer - they also saved the customer significant time, money and resources by implementing a quality refurbishment over a full replacement.

Aftersales Manager David Parsons said: “We really wanted to breathe new life into a vehicle potentially nearing retirement, and with the skill and expertise of the team, we got the 2011 RCV looking and operating like a more recent model. The fact that a vehicle can still operate as good as new 15 years after manufacture is a powerful testament to the durability and longevity of NTM RCVs.”

And judging by the reaction of a very happy customer, proof that with the right care, dedication and workmanship, even a 15-year-old RCV can be given a powerful new chapter on the road, helping the environment at the same time.
