Isuzu tipper helps landscaping firm grow
Victorian business Traianon Contractors is reaping the benefits of adding an Isuzu NQR Tipper to its growing fleetVictoria's Traianon Contractors has been handling all manner of landscaping jobs over the last 37 years, doing everything from parks and gardens to roadside grass cutting, tree lopping, weed spraying and more.
The company mainly works for councils and large organisations like Victoria's V-Line country train network, but Managing Director Adam Traianon says he's always on the lookout for more business.
"The business has a solid base, but I'm 100 per cent focused on expansion," he says.
"We never stop working and we're always getting more staff on, winning more tenders and increasing the size of our fleet."
The latest addition to that fleet is an Isuzu NQR 87-190 AMT Tipper, which boasts an 8700kg GVM, 140kW at 2600rpm and 513Nm from 1600rpm to 2600rpm.
Adam says the AMT transmission is a major plus.
"All the drivers single out the AMT as the truck's best feature; it makes a massive difference and everything else we buy now will have one."
The truck has also won employees over with its tight turning circle and manoeuvrability, while being part of Isuzu's Ready to Work means Adam was available to avoid the entire body-builder waiting game.
Isuzu's Ready to Work truck models are specified and pre-bodied to cater to key trade, transport and materials handling applications.
All models feature Isuzu factory-backed bodies with tray, van, service-body and tipper applications covered.
Isuzu says many of its Ready to Work models are driveable on a car licence and can be parked in any suburban driveway, yet still offer greater payloads than standard utilities and a tighter turning circle than many of the best-selling utilities on the market.
"It's got heaps of power and it makes everything so easy," Adam says of his NQR Tipper.
"It's just a press of a button or a pull on a lever and the Tipper responds perfectly."
Safety is a priority too, with the NQR boasting ABS brakes, traction control, an ECE-R29 compliant cab and Isuzu Electronic Stability Control.
Adam says he's totally satisfied with the purchase.
"It takes my business to the next level and provides us options a four-wheel drive or ute never could," he says.
"I couldn’t be happier with it and I'll definitely buy Isuzus again."
