Ardent Hire Upgrades Transport Fleet with Latest Volvo HGVs

Big changes are happening at Ardent Hire – and they’re rolling in on fourteen wheels of cutting-edge performance. We’re proud to announce a major investment in a full refresh of our HGV transport fleet, with brand-new, next-gen Volvo trucks now taking the lead on roads and job sites across the UK.

Why? Because when it comes to moving plant machinery safely and efficiently, we believe our customers (and our drivers) deserve nothing but the best.

The Volvo Upgrade: Built for Today’s Demands

Volvo’s latest HGVs are more than just good-looking trucks – they’re packed with game-changing tech and performance features that make every mile smarter, safer, and greener.

Here’s what’s new under the bonnet:

  • Enhanced fuel efficiency – cutting emissions and costs

  • Advanced safety systems – including lane-keeping, blind spot detection and smart braking

  • Driver-focused cabs – ergonomic, connected and built for comfort

  • Telematics-ready – real-time tracking and diagnostics for smoother operations

These aren’t just trucks. They’re mobile command centres designed to support the high demands of modern plant delivery.

Why It Matters for Our Customers

Whether we’re delivering a 25m roto telehandler or collecting a smart fuel tank, on-time, damage-free transport is critical to project success. This investment ensures:

  • Improved reliability – fewer breakdowns, less downtime

  • Better safety – for our team and everyone on-site

  • Reduced environmental impact – helping customers meet sustainability goals

  • Real-time visibility – know where your kit is and when it’ll arrive

In short: faster, cleaner, safer transport every step of the way.

A Word from the Team

"We’ve always been proud of our logistics operation – it’s one of the pillars of our service. But with the construction industry evolving fast, we knew it was time to raise the bar again. These new Volvos help us deliver on our promise of quality, reliability and innovation."
Gareth Clements, Operations Director, Ardent Hire

What’s Next?

This investment isn’t just about new trucks—it’s about a new standard. Combined with our growing digital platform, smart fleet, and commitment to training and safety, Ardent is continuing to lead the way in plant hire logistics.
