A&A McNeill Transport secures Krone’s Euroliners

A & A McNeill Transport has become a convert to Euroliner trailers after taking delivery of two Profi Liner curtainsiders from Krone Trailer UK.

Based in Airdrie, Scotland, the firm specialises in general haulage and operates five articulated trucks and 17 trailers, including the two from Krone.

Director Alan McNeill ordered the pair because a requirement to send loads to Europe necessitated four-metre-high trailers, as opposed to the UK-standard 4.4m units it has traditionally used.

Alan admitted that he was sceptical about the trailers before engaging with Krone:

“I used to be against using Euroliners, because they are lower than UK trailers and our trailers are dropped on site for the customer to load. The build quality I’d seen from other manufacturers in the past wasn’t great regarding the strength of the structure, and the tarpaulin roofs collected rainwater, which could get in and damage the cargo.”

He began investigating Krone’s trailers after a friend and fellow haulier bought a pair and was impressed with their strength and structure.

The high-specification Profi Liners are finished in A&A McNeill’s distinctive red and white livery with customised alloy rims. All steel parts are shot-blasted, powder coated and come with Krone’s standard 10-year warranty against rust-through.
