Dennis Eagle heads to Waste 2023

The Waste 2023 conference will be held in Coffs Harbour (NSW) next week (May 9 to 11), and Penske Australia says it will be making a splash with three Dennis Eagle products on its stand.

The display will comprise three Dennis Eagle Elite 6 models: a dual-control side loader and two right-hand-steer rear loaders fitted with Bucher Municipal and Superior Pak bodies.

Available in a 6x4 format, Penske says the Elite 6 chassis is tailor made for waste applications, featuring a low-entry cab and unencumbered vision for superior ergonomics and safety.

“As recognised by Transport for London, Dennis Eagle is the only truck manufacturer to have its complete model range awarded a five-star direct vision standard rating,” said Shannon Mair, Head of Fleet at Penske Australia.

“With a suite of safety features including a single-step entry, walk-through flat floor, tall and wide door openings, well-positioned grab handles, and all-wheel disc brakes, Dennis Eagle ensures vehicle operators and the public are in the safest hands.

“Additionally, the Elite 6 includes advanced driver-assist systems (ADAS) such as electronic stability control, lane departure warning, and advanced emergency braking system, ensuring we provide one of the safest refuse collection vehicles in the industry.

“Powered by the ever-reliable Cummins B6.7 Euro 6 engine rated at 290hp (217kW), the Elite 6 is the most fuel-efficient yet.

Mr Mair said Penske would have several product experts on hand to help visitors to the stand with their queries.

“At this year’s Waste, we have Richard Taylor, Sales and Marketing Director, and Andrew Christie, Export Development Manager of Dennis Eagle in the UK, joining us to meet with customers and visitors who are keen to hear more on Dennis Eagle’s vision and plans for the future,” he said.

Visitors to Waste 2023 will find Penske Australia’s Dennis Eagle exhibition at stall 43 (indoors) and displays 23, 24, and 25 (outdoors).
