Totally Local Company – Fleet Investment Programme New Arborist Tipper Vehicle

Totally Local Company is proud to share details about our latest new Arborist vehicle which is now operational as part of our ongoing Fleet Investment Programme.

Arbs Spec – 6.5 Tonne Tipper:

Our state-of-the-art 6.5-tonne Arbs Tipper vehicle is operational with our dedicated Arboriculture team.

This new vehicle has been designed with efficiency, safety, and sustainability in mind. Safety is our number one priority, and the type of work our trained Arborists undertake daily requires specialist training and safety equipment.

One of its key features is a larger cab, allowing more team members to travel together safely and comfortably to job sites – improving operational coordination and reducing the need for multiple vehicles. The vehicle is also equipped with trailer capabilities, enabling it to tow a variety of woodchipper’s directly to each site. This allows for efficient on-site processing of tree materials into manageable wood chips, which are then collected for recycling and reuse – supporting our environmental commitments.

Further enhancements include increased storage capacity for tools and equipment, as well as a built-in winch, 1 Tonne capacity tail lift & integrated ladder storage, ensuring our team can work efficiently and with all the necessary resources on hand.
