Centenary moves to Hino
A busy Brisbane landscape supplies company has taken delivery of its first two Hino trucksA Queensland landscaping company has taken delivery of its very first Hino trucks, a pair of 300 Series 616 IFS tippers.
Based in Darra, 14 kilometres south-west of Brisbane, Centenary Landscape Supplies transports landscape and gardening materials to customers around the greater south-east Queensland area.
The usual payload of these tippers includes loose substrates such as soil and bark, pavers and bulk-bagged sand and cements.
Centenary Landscape Supplies' CEO, Conor O'Shea, says the trucks have surpassed his expectations of a light-duty factory tipper.
"The tippers are comfortable, well-powered and well-appointed," he says.
"We've been so impressed that we are happy to see what Hino has to offer when the time comes to replace the other trucks in our fleet.
"We looked for a truck that was less than two metres wide, yet had a capable GVM and payload rating. I'm pleased to say the Hino 616 tipper ticked these boxes.
"Up to 70 per cent of our orders can be actioned by these trucks – a great testament to the Hino Built To Go offering," he said.
The 300 Series 616 IFS features a 150hp four-cylinder turbo-diesel engine with 420Nm of torque. The 616 IFS is able to be rated with a 4495 kilogram GVM or an optional 5500 kilogram GCM.
The 300 Series 616 IFS Tipper comes with an anti-lock braking system, vehicle stability control and a standard reverse camera.
Purchased from Sci-Fleet Hino, Centenary Landscape Supplies has the assurance of Hino Advantage to support its business investment.
Hino Advantage can deliver a range of benefits, including fixed price servicing, financial services, roadside assistance, fleet training, a dedicated customer care team and access to Hino genuine parts and accessories.
"The team at Sci-Fleet were very helpful, even with all my odd questions. I can't fault their service," Mr O'Shea said.
Family owned and operated, Centenary Landscape Supplies has serviced south-east Queensland for over 30 years and employs more than 50 people.
