MCB tippers??

[TheHungrySquirrel]

Has anyone on here used these guys??

 

Based in Tipton and from what I can find are the nearest place to me (Kent) that can make a tipper back from my truck.

Had mine done there about 3 years ago good body but takes too long to build them

Had my Ranger done by them about three years ago. It was a good job for the money but wouldn't use again as took six months even though it was booked in for two week slot. Wouldn't answer the phone left message after message even had to get a local Arbtalk member to see what was going on. Got a photo on my Facebook gka garden services. Hopefully they are a lot better nowadays.

Hmmm maybe the prices are about right but lacking service then.

 

Does anybody else recommend any other companies??

 

Figuring it would only take about a week?

They converted mine 2 years ago, no problems at all and was very happy, they had it for a few days, great job, and a great price compared to some other quotes I had.

You get what you pay for, if the price seams reasonable but the service is not then the price is clearly too cheep. I have used the same company for years to convert l200 tippers transits and 7.5 tonners. They were always what I consider to be reasonably priced but the last build took 3 months for a new l200 tipper. Next time I will pay twice the price and know I am paying for value in the build and the service.

 

After all, don't you just hate it when a customer says although you have come highly recommended for you arboricultural work, and you attention to detail on your quote was exceptional, you didn't get the job because some bloke in the pub was cheaper and you all do the same job!!

6 months! Thats crazy. What was their excuse? Two week slot seems reasonable but even 3 weeks I'd be looking elswhere.

Solent Body Builders will build you an excellent product at a good price and they're service is even better.

They'll pick up and drop you off at the station or whatever, just to make it easier for you.

I agree, I dont understand why they would take the vehicle until they were ready to bolt the thing on, if the body was ready its a days work at the most to fit it. If the body is not ready why take the vehicle?
