MJL Contractors are currently very busy in the Devon and Cornwall area, with a number of new sites opening up recently. This ever expanding workload has seen the business hiring in a large number of 8 ton class midi excavators from local plant hire companies. Managing Director Matthew Lugg is not a big fan of hiring in machines, preferring to purchase their own kit wherever possible. With that in mind the decision was made to add a second Takeuchi TB285 to fleet, which was once more supplied by the local CBL Plant Sales depot in Saltash, Cornwall.
Having been extremely impressed by the , which they took delivery of earlier this year following a short demonstration period, Mr Lugg had no hesitation in opting for an additional unit. A deal was quickly arranged between Mr Lugg and CBL’s Area Sales Manager Rod Luckman, and the machine was delivered straight to a new site where MJL Contractors are undertaking the groundwork’s for Barratt Homes on the outskirts of Plymouth.
Commenting on the company’s latest addition Matthew Lugg said, “The new Takeuchi 8 tonner is a quality piece of kit and is the ideal choice for our business”.
