“We went for Scarab Direct Hire because [the package] was very keenly priced and the support available from the main dealer to service the vehicle, which was a key factor for us.”

Scarab Direct Hire is just one of our flexible sales solutions that allows our customers access to our innovative road sweeping technology, while also benefitting from the payment flexibility offered by financing a vehicle. Through our Direct Hire platform, customers are able to purchase any of our cutting-edge road sweeping vehicles, in various finance packages, to take full control of their payments and get to work as quick as possible. Among these customers is Broxbourne Environmental Services Trading, who have recently added a Maven 65 to their fleet and have been thoroughly satisfied with the process.

David Long, Transport Manager for Broxbourne, has been impressed with the Scarab machine since they took delivery of it a few months ago: “the Maven 65 works really well, the suction on it is great. We can notice the difference between the town centres and the highroads. It is a really good machine – economic to use and offers great driver comfort.”

On an average day we sweep the highroads from one end of the borough to the other and then the team will go out and tackle the major routes in the [area]. We have one main driver, and two reserves, for this machine and the drivers that use it love it, they have had no problems at all. Easy to maintain and look after, he is more than happy and so are we.”

THE DIRECT ROUTE

The team at Broxbourne decided to acquire this vehicle through one of Scarab’s flexible Direct Hire packages. David explains, “we went for Scarab Direct Hire because [the package] was very keenly priced and the support available from the main dealer to service the vehicle, which was a key factor for us.”

Having been thoroughly satisfied with the process, from start to finish, David and the team are keen to discuss the options available to them from Scarab Direct Hire when the rest of their fleet is up for review: “our compacts are due at the end of the year and we will definitely invite Scarab Direct Hire to provide us with a price for them as well.”
