Catch up with SW Hire.
This month has seen a consistent flow of new machinery joining the fleet, and a shoutout from Kaleb Cooper at the Oxfordshire YFC Rally & Show.
With the weather improving slightly, silage trailers have been catching up with first cuts, and continue to be busy going into June. The 16 and 18 tonne silage trailers prove to be a popular choice for carting grass. In our fleet, we have 14, 16, 18 and 20 tonne models of silage trailers, choose whichever size is best suited to your farm.
The team headed to the Oxfordshire YFC Rally & show towards the end of May. Returning for the second time, this year it was held at Bicester. Exhibited on the stand was:
Our workshop assistant, Tommy, drove the tractor and hedge cutter as part of the modern tractor demonstration. Commentated by Kaleb Cooper (who sported our new pink sunglasses), our John Deere & hedge cutter were part of a big line-up of brand new machinery, including balers, wrappers, mowers and tractors of every brand.
In the ring, our Marketing Coordinator, Mae, was kindly introduced by Kaleb and spoke about the business; describing to the audience who we are, what machinery we hire out and that we can deliver nationwide. A small snippet of the conversation with Kaleb is available on our social media.
The dump trailers have also been busy, with the addition of two new trailers to keep up with demand. Both supplied by RJ and KD McLean, an additional 16 and 20 tonne trailers have been delivered to our yard.
One of our dump trailers was spotted on the front cover of Farmers Weekly. The JPM Dump Trailer was photographed as part of a feature on the new Valtra tractors. Captured in action, the trailer was used to move around rubble within the site.
